Zendaya paid homage to tennis in a jaw-dropping look at the Challengers premiere in London.

The 27-year-old, who has starred in films including Dune and The Greatest Showman, stunned in a white halter neck dress that was embroidered with a tennis motif comprised of two rackets.

The pleated skirt on the sequin gown was layered on top of white netting and adorned with panels of red, white and blue square blocks and a bow that sat atop her lower waist.
