Zendaya is leaving her peplos at home today.
While juggling her Euphoria season three filming schedule, the actor recently touched down in Favignana, Italy to shoot for her part in Christopher Nolan’s adaptation of The Odyssey. Z is far from the only megawatt star cast in the Homer epic: Matt Damon is taking on the role of Odysseus, while Anne Hathaway, Lupita Nyong’o, Robert Pattinson, Elliot Page, Charlize Theron, and Zendaya’s fiancé Tom Holland are also among the headliners.

While eagle-eyed photographers spotted Zendaya on The Odyssey set earlier this week, the actor left her costume behind for an outing in town with her longtime best pal, Darnell Appling. The look was simple: a black Louis Vuitton crewneck sweater with light-wash straight-legged jeans, worn underneath a black below-the-knee coat from Maison Margiela, and a pair of black lug-sole boots.
But even Zendaya’s most pared-back ’fits are still dynamic—we wouldn’t expect any less from Law Roach’s disciple. Her knit pullover featured a pinch seam detailing on the body and a coat with a raw hem. And let’s not forget about her expert accessorizing: she shaded herself with a pair of black Bottega Veneta cat-eye sunglasses, whose slightly rounded frames added a touch of whimsy to the neutral look. But of course, no outfit these days is complete without her jaw-dropping Jessica McCormack engagement ring.
