While Zendaya made heads turn with her all-white halter gown, it was her coordinating headscarf that was the actual center of attention. The show-stopping accessory was tied to the back of her dress via elegant drapery. The 29-year-old actress' longtime stylist, Law Roach, posted on Instagram, saying, "The Essence of Athena...... Z wearing custom @jacquemus."

Zendaya feels grateful to be part of Christopher Nolan's 'The Odyssey'

Zendaya, who plays goddess Athena, in the upcoming movie is grateful for the opportunity. In a July 4 interview, she reportedly said, "[Nolan is] incredible. What he also inspires in the people that he works with is such a determined work ethic and people, really, who are such masters of their craft." She added, "Even I got a peek behind the curtain. I got to see things being made that I was like, 'How did you…? How is this…? How?' Even watching it back, I still am blown away. The magic is not lost at all, having seen it be made in real life and knowing how it was done. It's really extraordinary."
