Okay, so imagine this: you’re getting ready for your first-ever Met Gala, you’ve got the glam squad hyping you up, you feel like a literal fashion ninja—and then BAM, you arrive and realize… you’re basically Zendaya’s style twin. Like, “Oops, did we just do a joint photoshoot and no one told me?” level twin.
Anna Sawai, queen of Shōgun and now unofficial member of the “Oops, Same Outfit” club, showed up to the 2025 Met Gala in a crisp white suit and a wide-brimmed hat so fierce it could probably double as a frisbee in a windstorm. Zendaya? Also wore a white suit and wide-brimmed hat. The universe said: Copy-paste, but make it fashion.
To be clear: no shade. Both ladies looked STUNNING. But the internet, as always, did its thing—zoomed in, freaked out, made 30 TikToks, and declared a fashion face-off faster than you can say “Met Gala Afterparty.”
Anna finally addressed the accidental twinning on Instagram like the graceful, self-aware icon she is, saying:
“I know a lot of people have a lot to say, and trust me, I admire her too🤣🤍 But most importantly, I’m so happy with my look, so please be happy for me too xx”
Translation: “I didn’t steal her look, the fashion gods just played a prank on me. Now please clap.”
Meanwhile, Law Roach—aka Zendaya’s fashion wizard/stylist/possibly wardrobe psychic—was caught mid-eyeroll on the carpet when he saw Anna’s outfit. Not in a mean way, just in a “Wait… is this a glitch in the Matrix?” kind of way.
Anna slayed. Zendaya slayed. The suits were sisters, not twins. The hats were basically talking behind everyone’s back. And we, the people, got double the fashion drama for the price of one. What a time to be alive.
