Zendaya has been working overtime in the wardrobe department lately. After laying low for a few months, the actress made a welcome return to the red carpet with four incredible looks across two days last weekend. But despite her show-stopping SAG and NAACP Image Awards moments, and her close relationship with many fashion houses, it looked she she wouldn’t be attending any shows during the current fashion month circuit.

However, today, in another welcome surprise, the 26-year-old popped up in Paris right at the last minute, arriving at the Louis Vuitton show to sit front row on the final day of the city’s Fall/Winter 2023 season.

Zendaya was easy to spot in her head-to-tie tiger print look, made up of a blazer, short shorts and knee-high boots in the same beige with black tiger stripes print, singlehandedly cementing three things: animal print is back, shorts in winter are acceptable and short suits are, most definitely, on-trend. 

Underneath the blazer, which she wore undone, Zendaya had on nothing but a black triangle bra, which matched her jacket’s black-trim lapel and glossy buttons, as well as layered gold necklaces on her bare chest. Wearing her short hair in bouncy waves, the 26-year-old added a black mini handbag bearing the luxury house’s signature monogram pattern.

Despite the cold climate, short hemlines have been trending recently with Hailey Bieber wearing micro miniskirt after micro miniskirt everywhere from L.A. to New York to London and the runways showcasing similar.

With a Zendaya tick of approval to top it all off, the only question is: how short is too short?
