Zendaya and Law Roach know a thing or two about a fashion reference. Whether diving into tennis motifs for Challengers, finding archival spiderweb gowns for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, or leaning into bridal whites for The Drama, the duo has approached every press tour with an attention to detail and a love for the art of method dressing. But this time, they put their expertise to work not for a premiere, but for Halloween.

While most people take a DIY approach to the holiday, channeling their inner witch or favorite pop star with a mix of thrifted items, hand-sewn projects, and pieces they have in their closets, Zendaya and Roach turned to their industry connections for a familiar yellow set that helped them be as authentic as possible to their reference: Halle Berry at the July 2000 New York City premiere of X-Men.

Photos from the Y2K event saw Berry in a geometric Lanvin set from the Fall 2000 collection, composed of a yellow patterned bikini top and matching low-rise trousers with extra-long legs. In the years since, the look has remained one of the most recognizable looks from the era, and of course, Roach managed to get his hands on it.

Zendaya wore the ensemble with sunglasses and diamond earrings, just like the actor before her did, though left behind her predecessor’s semi-sheer brown button-down shirt and long crystal waist chain. Her tousled pixie cut certainly helped with the resemblance, and she finished things off with simple pointed-toe nude heels and red nails.
