Zendaya Embodies Cher at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony

Zendaya is channeling Cher at the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

Zendaya, 28, stepped out at the Saturday, October 19, event in a stunning shimmering gold gown with beads and a criss-cross neckline, as well as straps that extended below her stomach. She paired the look with a white satin coat, while attending the ceremony at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse in Cleveland.

Cher, for her part, has rocked several of Mackie’s looks through the years. The musician was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame performer category alongside Mary J. Blige , the Dave Matthews Band, Foreigner, Peter Frampton , Kool & the Gang, Ozzy Osbourne and A Tribe Called Quest.

Zendaya’s stylist Law Roach revealed that the Dune actress ’ gown was from Bob Mackie ’s 2001 Fall Fashion collection.

“Fall 2001 Bob Mackie Couture collection, Foreign Intrigue,” Roach, 46, wrote via his Instagram Story on Saturday. “White silk satin trench coat, with dramatic collar and cuffs, embroidered in gold and diamond iridescent bugle beads and stones.”

He continued, “Nude illusion halter-gown, entirely hand-beaded in gold, diamond and iridescent bugle beads and aurora-borialus [sic] stones.”

Zendaya and Roach have collaborated together for years. While celebrating the launch of his new book, How to Build a Fashion Icon: Notes of Confidence from the World’s Only Image Architect , Roach spoke to Us Weekly earlier this month about how confidence has contributed to Zendaya’s fashion transformation .

“Her style has evolved just like her womanhood,” Roach said. “What people tend to forget is that your palette for fashion also matures the way your palette for food does. And things that you didn’t like when you were younger change over time.”

In the book, Roach recalled sharing advice with Zendaya at New York Fashion Week in 2014. At the time, Zendaya donned a yellow and blue Miuniku coat, distressed Rag & Bone jeans, and a white shirt from Acne.

“She was not the global megastar and fashion icon you know her as today,” Roach wrote in an excerpt originally shared with Us. “Yes, I knew it (and told her at every opportunity), but the world wasn’t aware just yet.”

He continued, “Some asked a few questions — most didn’t even know her name. We heard the shutter of a few cameras. I whispered in her ear: ‘They aren’t photographing you because you’re a celebrity, they are photographing you because you’re beautiful.’”
