Zendaya Celebrates Tom Holland in a Vintage Madame Grès Dress That Highlights Her Tiny “T” Tattoo
She joins her husband at the BERO Padel Classic
Reported by Harper's Bazaar.
There's something quietly powerful about a woman who shows up to cheer on her husband wearing vintage couture and a tattoo with his initial. At the second annual BERO Padel Classic in Los Angeles — a tournament hosted by Tom Holland for his non-alcoholic beverage brand — Zendaya arrived not as a background character but as the most dressed person in the room. The guest list included Steve Aoki, Rainn Wilson, and Jay Shetty, but eyes landed elsewhere.
The dress: a vintage Madame Grès, the French couturier whose draped silhouettes have outlasted decades of trend cycles for good reason. Blue-and-white patterned, with ruffle ties at each shoulder and a neckline that plunged to the waist before releasing into a gathered knee-length skirt — it was effortless in the way that only truly considered dressing ever is. The open sides of the silhouette did something extra, according to Harper's Bazaar: they framed Zendaya's small "T" tattoo, inked for Holland, who reportedly has a matching "Z." Romantic without being saccharine. Intentional without being loud.
The Accessories Did Exactly What They Were Supposed To
A lemon-yellow Louis Vuitton mini Capucines — carried by the top handle, chain left at home — hit against the blue-and-white print in a way that felt instinctive rather than coordinated. Gold hardware on the bag linked to a statement Rolex on her wrist. Diamond studs kept things clean at the ears while her Jessica McCormack engagement ring stacked against her wedding band on her finger. Her blown-out micro bob and a sweep of blush finished the look: easy, glowing, not overdone.
Meanwhile, Holland wore head-to-toe BERO merch — a padel tee and a hat reading "when BERO gives you lemons" — which is both completely understandable and a useful reminder that sometimes the best accessory a man can have is a woman who dresses like Zendaya standing next to him.
The real flex isn't the vintage Grès or the Vuitton — it's that Zendaya has mastered the art of dressing for a casual Saturday in a way that looks completely uncontrived and will be studied by fashion editors for the next three years.
