How To Pull Off The Cutout Dress Zendaya Wore In Netflix’s ‘Malcolm & Marie’

Our tips on styling the swoon-worthy cutout style that dazzled in the film noir epic and a curation of similar dresses to shop for.

If you’re a fan of a good ol’ love story, you may have already caught Netflix‘s latest masterpiece Malcolm & Marie, starring award-winning actors, John David Washington and Zendaya.

Directed by Euphoria‘s Sam Levinson, the production takes a film-noir approach, showcasing the trials and tribulations of a rocky relationship between Marie and Malcolm. While we enjoyed the acting chops of Washington and Zendaya, along with the artistic cinematography, what really caught our eyes was Law Roach‘s styling, in particular, the glistening custom Aliette cutout gown worn by Zendaya who plays Marie. (The dress is now sold online by the maison and coined the Zee dress, presumably after the actress.)
