Zendaya slips into one of Cate Blanchett's gowns for her 'something borrowed' look as she continues bridal method dressing for The Drama

She's committed to wearing something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue on the promo tour for her wedding-themed movie, The Drama. 

And queen of method dressing Zendaya pulled it off again on Thursday night as she called on her friend Cate Blanchett to provide her 'something borrowed' look. 

The actress, 29, looked incredible in a plunging Giorgio Armani Privé gown originally designed for Cate, 56, as she hit the red carpet for Rome premiere. 

Slashed to the navel, the silk architectural column gown clung to her sensational figure while the trim of onyx stones on the neckline dazzled under the bright lights. 

The gown is a special one for Cate, who has so far worn it twice, first at the 2022 SAG Awards and more recently at Venice Film Festival last August. 

Yet Zendaya did the look justice, even going as far as to copy the Louis Vuitton accessories Cate wore at Venice by donning the dazzling diamond earrings and  costume ring. 

There was one difference, however, with Zendaya also wearing the delicate gold band she has been seen sporting in recent weeks.

The wedding-ring style band has caused much frenzy in recent weeks, with fans desperate to know if it means she's secretly married Tom Holland or if it's just part of her method dressing wardrobe for The Drama. 

Prior to the Rome premiere, Zendaya has slipped into 'something old' and 'something new' on the promo tour, with her 'something blue' expected to be unveiled at The Drama's New York premiere next week. 

For the old, Zendaya re-wore the same custom Vivienne Westwood gown she donned to the 2015 Oscars for the LA premiere of her new movie.

The elegant, full-length satin gown sported a corset-style top and was embellished with a tulle-draped neckline that hung down the back.

She told Variety of the look: 'This is my something old! I thought I'd bring it back, and give it a new life. It meant so much to me, this dress.'

She continued: 'And it also happens to be a wedding dress, so that works!'

For the new, Zendaya slipped into a brand new custom Louis Vuitton dress for the Paris premiere on Tuesday. 

The bridal white backless gown fitted her frame and featured a large black bow on the back.

This is not the first time Zendaya has channelled her on-screen counterpart on the red carpet, having embraced method dressing since the release of her 2017 film The Greatest Showman. 

Yet this time around, all of the looks have been finished off by her gold 'wedding' band, amid ongoing speculation about her marital state. 

Zendaya's stylist Roach Law was the first one to fuel the wedding rumours, telling Access Hollywood at last month's Actor Awards: 'The wedding has already happened. You missed it.'

When asked if that was 'true,' Roach replied: 'It's very true!'

The news has yet to be confirmed by the couple's representatives, but they have both been keen to keep their relationship out of the spotlight.

Although Zendaya hasn't commented directly on the claims she has been keen to play into them on the press tour for her new movie. 

She recently dropped the biggest hint yet that she's tied the knot when she and co-star Robert Pattinson were asked by Views France about what makes the perfect marriage.

Zendaya replied: 'I don't know if there's any such thing as a perfect marriage, but I'd say like people who, and this is a corny answer, but seem like best friends.

'I think it's always nice to see two people that, I don't know, really like each other as well as love each other.'

Robert had nothing to add, simply telling Zendaya: 'That was a nice answer.' 

The Drama stars Zendaya and Robert as a happily engaged couple who get put to the test when an unexpected revelation sends their wedding week off the rails. 

The Drama is released in cinemas globally on April 3.
