Few celebrities were invited to both the 2018 Academy Awards and the Oscar after parties. Even fewer were able to get the fashion right at both events.

One of those style elites was Zendaya, whose two winning Oscar looks no doubt shot her up to the top of many best-dressed lists.

The actress-slash-dancer-slash-singer made her grand entrance at the Academy Awards in a Giambattista Valli Spring 2018 Couture brown gown. Her frock’s weird one-sleeved design, figure-hiding billowy silhouette, and typically bland brown color sound like they’d be difficult to wear, but Zendaya managed to pull them all off like nobody else could.

The 21-year-old accessorized her look with Bulgari “Art Deco” earrings, dyed-to-match Brian Atwood “Karin” platform sandals and a totally sleek top knot hairdo.

Zendaya once again faced the flashbulbs in her second look of the night at the 2018 Vanity Fair Oscar Party. The “Spider-Man: Homecoming” star looked like a Barbie doll come to life in a sparkly custom Michael Kors Collection champagne mermaid gown. She cemented her best-dressed status with Bulgari “Nuvole Mus0596” earrings, Jimmy Choo “Max” platform sandals, and Jennifer Behr “Juliette” flower bobby pins in her hair.

Is Zendaya also one of your best dressed at the 2018 Oscars?
