In her tweet, before revealing the dress officially, she hinted about her dress resembling Zendaya’s dress by saying, “I noticed my dress for presenting at the Game Awards tonight is the same type of dress that has been worn by Zendaya and I feel like this is the closest I will get to meeting her.” She further added in her comments, “NOT THE LITERAL DRESS SHE WORE LOL JUST THE SAME TYPE OF DRESS NOT HER DRESS HOW DO I WORD THIS PROPERLY LOL.”
However, an hour later when she finally shared her photos alongside Leslie it was revealed that she was wearing a Black-and-White striped gown, that was a perfect match to another Black and White Vintage striped gown that Zendaya once wore during the 2019 HBO Max’s Euphoria premiere.

Notably, according to a report from People, it was clarified that the dress that Zendaya wore during the 2019 premiere was a “black-and-white, vertically striped Valentino gown from the 1992 collection straight from the Valentino archives. The design first made its debut on the catwalk, modeled by supermodel icon Linda Evangelista, during the Italian fashion house’s Spring/Summer show.”
