Everyone pack up your bubble dresses and skirts because no one will be able to top Zendaya‘s take on the trend.
While it seems like every celebrity is in Italy for Milan Fashion Week, Taylor Swift and Gigi Hadid weren’t the only ones stepping out in New York City this weekend.

According to reports, Zendaya began the night in a look pulled straight off the Burberry runway, pairing a sheer black maxi skirt with a structured white jacket that walks a fine line between marching band uniform and straight jacket-inspired tailoring. You know, in a good way! She paired both pieces from the British brand’s extremely recent spring-summer 2025 collection with a pair of tied-up thong heels and a slightly slicked-back wet hair look.

For her second look of the night, Zendaya decided to raise the volume—literally. Dressed in a teal bubble dress from Louis Vuitton’s 2025 resort collection. The ultra-short satin minidress is high-volume and high-shine, featuring a bouncy silhouette, off-the-shoulder synching, and a on-trend bubble hem. She kept her hair and makeup look from the start of the night, trading out her sandals for a more classic pointed-toe pump.

Alas, we I will no longer be able to partake knowing that Zendaya has already served the best the trend has to offer. Just kidding, obviously this just means the trend is here to stay—at least until popcorn tops get the…
