Zendaya's yellow Oscars dress channeled two of Cher's iconic outfits from the 1970s

• Zendaya channeled two of Cher's iconic yellow outfits from the '70s at the Oscars.
• The actress' Valentino dress was similar to a look Cher wore to the Oscars in 1973.
• Writing on his Instagram story, Zendaya's stylist Law Roach called Cher a "constant inspiration."

Zendaya wore a yellow cutout dress to the Oscars on Sunday evening, and the look was similar to an outfit worn by Cher four decades ago.

The actress, 24, paired the custom Valentino gown with $6 million worth of layered diamond necklaces, earrings, and rings from Bulgari, Insider's Amanda Krause previously reported.

The look was reminiscent of an outfit worn by Cher to the Oscars in 1973.

The star attended the 45th Academy Awards in a yellow midriff-baring outfit. Her jewel-embellished sheer crop top and matching skirt were designed by Bob Mackie, Harper's Bazaar reports.

Cher and her then-husband Sonny Bono presented the best original song award at the award ceremony.

Zendaya's dress also shared similarities to a yellow dress worn by Cher on "The Sonny and Cher Show in 1970," Vogue initially reported.

Zendaya's stylist Law Roach appeared to confirm that Zendaya's outfit was partly inspired by this look on his Instagram story. He shared a link to a video that featured this dress, alongside other outfits from "The Sonny and Cher Show," with the caption: "Constant inspiration."

The stylist spoke to Harper's Bazaar about Zendaya's jewelry choices at the awards ceremony, saying she was involved in the selection process.

"When it was time to just try jewelry on, there was a piece that Zendaya was absolutely in love with, that we had saw at a little preview," Roach told the publication. "We went to the store about a week ago, and so we saw it, and she said, 'Oh my God, this is incredible. This could be the one.'"

He added: "I think Zendaya and I, our relationship is just filled with so much trust. It depends on how much or how little she inserts it in each situation. I like to joke and think that I'm the boss, but she's really the boss."

"She trusts me to bring her the things that I think are the best and that really suits her and really speaks to who she is as this fashion phenom," he said.

Representatives for Roach did not immediately respond to Insider's request for comment.
