Zendaya will be adding another prestigious honor to her trophy case next month when the 2021 CFDA Fashion Awards name her this year’s fashion icon.
The council announced on Tuesday that the Dune star’s multiple iconic red carpet looks, as well as her entrepreneurship within the industry, inspired them to recognize her with the 2021 Fashion Icon award.
While highlighting some of their favorite outfits the Emmy winner rocked on the red carpet in a photo collage, the council also took note of her stylist, Law Roach, and saluted his efforts.
Zendaya’s new award places her in good company, as she now joins fellow recipients Beyoncé, Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Pharrell, Jennifer Lopez and Naomi Campbell.
The CFDA announced another award recipient on Tuesday, honoring Queen’s Gambit star Anya Taylor-Joy with their newest honor, Face of the Year.
The 2021 CFDA Fashion Awards will be held November 10 at New York City’s Seagram Building.
