Zendaya’s longtime stylist Law Roach told WWD.com that the inspiration for the gown first came to him in a dream.

‘When I knew the theme and Versace, we started the conversation,’ Roach explained.

‘There were a lot of sketches from Versace and I started thinking about strong women who had a connection to religion,’ he went on.

‘I dreamt of Joan of Arc one night and called Versace and was like, ‘What if we did something to reference Joan of Arc?’ They came back with really, really great sketches.’
