Fifty-two years after Cher’s ‘naked’ dress first shocked the censors, a young star just did it again. Zendaya is a 28 years old actress and modern fashion leader who has become the ‘it-girl’ of her generation. She walked onto the stage at the 2024 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame wearing a gold outfit that barely seemed to stay on her body. It was a famous look from the past that only two women have ever had the courage to wear.
The dress is made of thousands of tiny gold beads and stones that look like they are floating on skin. It is a nude illusion style that Cher made famous back in the 1970s. Zendaya looked stunning, but the spirit of the look was all Cher. She even wore her hair jet black and pin-straight to match the Goddess of Pop.

She spoke from the heart about how Cher changed music and fashion forever. The glitter of the beads matched the pride in her voice as she honored her idol.
