Zendaya stylist reveals amazingly low price for viral Spider-Man outfit

Zendaya turned heads with her vintage Spider-Man t-shirt at the Brand New Day photocall.

Zendaya wore a $35 vintage Spider-Man t-shirt for her latest Hollywood event.

The 29-year-old actress will be back as Mary Jane in Marvel’s new blockbuster Spider-Man: Brand New Day, and she has gone viral after sporting a classic oversized shirt with just a pair of Christian Louboutin pumps for the movie’s photocall in Paris, France.

Her stylist Law Roach has since revealed she got the 2XL graphic print t-shirt off eBay earlier this month for just $34.99.

The description for the item revealed it was pre-owned but in “good” condition.

Sharing a screenshot of the original listing on his Instagram Story, Law quipped: “Style doesn’t always have to cost a fortune.”

Zendaya previously admitted that 2003 Disney Channel movie The Cheetah Girls was her first fashion inspiration.

She told Vogue magazine: “Once I was old enough to kind of decide what I wanted to wear, they kind of just let me dress myself, which was cool.

“So I wasn’t that kid who had the perfect matching outfit going to school — I kind of just picked whatever I wanted, starting in kindergarten, first grade.

“The Cheetah Girls was a major thing, so I wore a lot of leopard print—that’s not cheetah print, but I didn’t know the difference.”

The TV film – and its subsequent two sequels – followed four girls in a pop group, who were known for their signature animal print style.

The Drama star insisted children should all have the opportunity to discover themself through their fashion choices.

She added: “I love when I see kids and they’re in a princess dress and rain boots — they’re just experimenting with clothes, and they are already figuring out their little personalities.

“I probably wore some very interesting combinations as an elementary schooler, but I think it was more about what made me feel confident and whatever colour I was into, or my fixation at the time.”

She was glad to grow up at a time where social media wasn’t as prevalent, and she feels like children should have a freedom to try on clothes without “understanding that you’re being perceived by others”.

She added: “Thankfully, not all of my awkward outfits were documented, and there weren’t a bunch of tutorials or links to help me or decide who I was.

“It’s just something that you had to figure out on your own. And I think that exploration is so important — it’s important to go through awkward phases; to look back at things you wore when you were a teenager and be like, ‘Oh my God, what was I thinking?’

“Very few people are chic their whole life. It’s something that your taste and your personal preference develops as you get older.”
