In pictures: All eyes on Zendaya's futuristic look at 'Dune: Part 2' premiere

Zendaya turned heads at the Dune: Part 2 world premiere in London on Thursday, donning a chrome bodysuit from a 1995 Mugler Couture collection. The futuristic ensemble, in line with the film's theme starring Zendaya, showcased shiny sleeves, gloves, and pants over clear plastic, complemented by a substantial diamond necklace.

The desert planet Arrakis came to London's Leicester Square on Thursday as the star-studded Dune: Part Two, the second instalment of the sci-fi epic featuring Timothee Chalamet and Zendaya, rolled into town for the movie's world premiere.

Set in a future where noble families rule planetary fiefs, the franchise is based on author Frank Herbert’s highly acclaimed 1965 novel of the same name. It tackles politics, religion, the fight for precious resources and the environment.

With its sweeping landscapes and dark mood, critics lauded the first film in reviews as a visual spectacle. Dune: Part Two sees actor Rebecca Ferguson return as Paul's mother Jessica and Javier Bardem as Fremen leader Stilgar, and also features new additions, Elvis star Austin Butler as the villainous Feyd-Rautha and Oppenheimer actor Florence Pugh as Princess Irulan.

Dune: Part Two, whose release was pushed back from late last year because of the Hollywood actors' strike, begins its global cinema roll-out on February 28.
