My wearing my hair in locs on an Oscar red carpet was to showcase them in a positive light, to remind people of color that our hair is good enough.

More quotes by Zendaya
Other than the obvious, like Cher and Diana Ross, I actually find a lot of inspiration from time periods. So it's not necessarily people, it's the essence of the time period, whether it be the '90s or the '70s or the '40s. The specific time and what vibe it gave you, what the emotion of that time was, and trying to get that emotion again.
Zendaya
I want a lot of young people to see me in my working environment. I want them to see me being a good person while also running a business. I want young people to aspire to that.
Zendaya
I feel like clothing is very much emotional, you know?
Zendaya
Well, I would say that Shake It Up was a chance for me to do two things I really love: acting and dancing.
Zendaya
I am scared of spiders! And I still get a little afraid every time I have to do something new or have to get out in front of a big crowd. The first time I sang Swag It Out live, I was really scared.
Zendaya
[My fashion] line is inspired by real people, so I guess you could say it was listening to them, what they need, what they want and then translating that into coming from me.
Zendaya
It's so hard for women to be happy for one another, like genuinely happy. Once you find that, you know you've found true SELF happiness.
Zendaya
We have to build the country that we want to see our future children and grandchildren live in.
Zendaya
Chanel all the way! Just because not only do they have timeless pieces, but since it is the epitome of class and elegance.
Zendaya
Every day when I'm thinking about something or want to do something, I say, Hey, can we shoot some stuff? or Hey, can you come with me to the grocery store? or Hey, can you... Just so I can share my personality and who I am, and also use it as a platform to do bigger, more important things.
Zendaya
I want my mom to be able to wear my clothes, I want my older sister to be able to wear my clothes, and the people in my life aren't necessarily built like I am, you know? They're built in a million different beautiful bodies, shapes, and sizes, and so why would I exclude anybody from being able to have it? This is the point.
Zendaya
I think sometimes there's a lot of subliminal messaging in everything.
Zendaya
My older sister is a working mom. She's busy. She chooses to spend money on her children. But she should be able to afford a good shoe for herself.
Zendaya
I believe you should wear whatever you feel confident in.
Zendaya
I think women are very powerful and I think we're more powerful together than separated.
Zendaya
I've always learned how to deal with my problems through my words, through my education, and through my intelligence, which I think is important and the best way to deal with an issue.
Zendaya
I've always dressed myself, even when I was younger. My parents didn't pick out my clothes or anything. They let me do that, which I think is an important thing because it allows for kids to experiment and figure out what they like, even at a young age.
Zendaya
When I'm on a red carpet I want somebody to feel something when they look at what I'm wearing, when they look at the entire ensemble, whether it be nostalgia or excitement, you know?
Zendaya
I don't go to parties even when I'm invited. I've always been an 80-year-old woman inside. I remember going to my first school dance petrified. I just wanted to leave. Like, This is cool, but I'm ready to go home now.
Zendaya
I've been blessed with good eyebrows, and I've worked very hard for them. Get a good brow pencil, fill them in a bit, make them perfect, and I guarantee you'll feel better. At least it works for me.
Zendaya
