By now, you're probably aware that Zendaya and Anna Sawai — like many other celebrities — awkwardly ended up wearing very similar outfits at the 2025 Met Gala.
Zendaya wore a custom white Louis Vuitton suit and hat, while Anna, who attended the Met for the first time this year, wore a white Dior suit, collared shirt, and hat.
It wasn't long before the matching looks became a huge talking point online — and the discourse only grew further when Zendaya's longtime stylist, Law Roach, was filmed reacting to the outfits in real time.
While being interviewed by media outlet Hello Beautiful on the Met carpet, Law paused mid-answer and began laughing to himself after spotting Anna. 'I am dying coz she got on Zendaya's look,' he said, looking visibly uncomfortable. 'I'm so glad we came early,' he added, while seemingly never finishing his original response.
In a separate red carpet interview with Access Hollywood, Law shouted, 'Oop!' and, 'Who wore it better?' as he saw Anna posing on the red carpet.
Law's reaction to the matching outfits quickly garnered a heap of attention online, with several internet users speculating that he seemed 'pissed.'
Now, Law has addressed the uproar during a conversation with Entertainment Tonight, during which he clarified that there was no 'disappointment' on his end. 'I think people thought that there was some type of disappointment on our end,' he began. You know, [Anna's] stylist, Karla Welch, and I are very friendly. We've known each other for years. And Karla and I talked.'
Law went on to reveal that Zendaya even sent Anna a wholesome gift after the awkward moment. 'Zendaya sent Anna flowers, 'cause it was her first Met,' he shared, before adding: 'But yeah, it wasn't any disappointment. It was, like, two people paying homage to two different people, you know, Yoko [Ono] being Anna's inspiration, and Diana [Ross] and Bianca [Jagger] being ours.'
'It just happened! They both looked great, and they're both beautiful women. I mean, I hate the way that people try to [pitt] women or stylists…You know, it was all great,' Law said.
Reacting to Law's comments, several fans praised Zendaya's sweet move, describing her as a 'class act.' 'Zendaya seems really sweet, that was nice of her to send Anna flowers,' someone wrote. 'Of course Zendaya sent flowers, she's a girl's girl,' another user said.
However, tons of internet users couldn't help but raise their eyebrows over Law's remarks about Zendaya and Anna's looks being compared, given that his reaction to the matching suits sparked a heap of discourse online.
'He's talking like we didn't see the shade he threw at Anna,' one person wrote. 'I guess he forgot when she was on the carpet. He turned and said at least Zendaya did the carpet first. He flamed the fire,' another agreed.
