Zendaya had a quick wardrobe change during the 29th Annual Screen Actors Guild Awards in Los Angeles on Sunday.
While presenting the award for outstanding performance by a female actor in a miniseries or television movie alongside Paul Mescal, 27, the Euphoria actress, 26, donned a different dress than the one she wore on the red carpet.
Zendaya swapped her pale pink romantic Valentino gown for an art deco Armani Privé dress with a front cut-out featuring pale blue, pink and black hues.
Fans also noted an awkward exchange between the co-presenters as they made their way up the stage.
Zendaya appeared to swerve Mescal’s offer of a gentlemanly arm, brushing it off and walking up the stairs by herself after declining the actor’s attempt to escort her, which left him fumbling over his words later as they read from a teleprompter.

Earlier in the night she kicked off the red carpet in style, arriving in a strapless pink gown featuring three-dimensional flowers embellished on the skirt.
The actress showcased her slim figure in the striking Valentino number covered in varying sizes of fabric roses in the same hue.

The design was custom made for her by creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli and she was styled by Law Roach.
She styled her short tresses in waves, channeling old Hollywood stars.
Fans watching the show took online to express their amusement after noticing the awkward moment between Zendaya and Mescal.
As they walked on stage together, Mescal seemed to hold out his hand in what seemed to be an attempt to help Zendaya up the stage.
