Zendaya’s screen time in Christopher Nolan’s new film *The Odyssey* may be brief, but the actress has taken center stage throughout the press tour with her ethereal red carpet looks.

While promoting *The Odyssey* in cities including Paris, London, and New York, the Emmy-winning *Euphoria* star stepped out in nearly a dozen different outfits that nodded to her role as Greek goddess Athena in the adaptation of Homer’s epic poem.

Her longtime stylist, *Project Runway* judge Law Roach, dressed Zendaya in a collection of mostly white designer gowns with gorgeous accessories that included headpieces, diamond chokers, and gladiator sandals.

The press tour culminated with a jaw-dropping look at the NYC premiere Tuesday, as Zendaya donned a strapless gown with attached floor-skimming wings from Matières Fécales’ debut collection. With minimal makeup and long hair, she was an angelic vision.

Zendaya started off simple with this elegant belted outfit and golden heeled sandals that feel like a fancier, modern Greek sandal.

While doing press in London on July 5, Zendaya wore a white dress with a headscarf that attached to the back. Designer Simon Porte Jacquemus wrote on Instagram: “I drew this dress two years ago with Zendaya somewhere in mind. Today, seeing her wear it feels surreal. So happy.”

The circular gold earrings added a dramatic finish.

Zendaya wore a molded Schiaparelli dress — straight from the runway at Paris Fashion Week — to the *Odyssey* world premiere in London. The luxury label’s creation is a “glowing dress with a molded bustier in white glazed porcelain-effect silicone, racer back and lacing details, mirror fringes embroidered with a white-to-mirror sfumato gradient.”

In other words, she looks like a sculpture in a museum come to life. It’s one of the most stunning looks from the press tour.

If you missed the Eiffel Tower sparkling in this video from Roach, it’s probably because Zendaya’s shimmering Louis Vuitton* *gown takes all the attention away from the Paris landmark.

Zendaya wore an ornate mask and an archival white dress from Givenchy (designed by Alexander McQueen in 1997) for a photocall in Paris, but she definitely wasn’t hiding. The model who originally wore the dress, Debra Shaw, called it a “precious, unexpected, and deeply moving full-circle moment.”

Zendaya’s press looks continued to evolve when she arrived back in the U.S. She was seen Monday in New York wearing a plunging archival Alberta Ferretti minidress and Sophia Webster heeled gladiators. The best part? Her short, curly hairstyle.

Every look on her press tour was leading up to this moment: becoming an angel at the *Odyssey* premiere in NYC. Zendaya traded her beige dress for a white gown by Matières Fécales, with floor-skimming wings. How can one top this? You can’t, which is why Roach captioned a video of the look “Finale.”
