Zendaya Coleman stepped out in a bold dress for this year’s iHeart Radio Music Awards in Hollywood this weekend.

The singer and actress showed up in a bright multicolored and animal printed Fausto Puglisi dress with a date on her arm. The young star was rocking a totally new look with her hair pulled half-way up in nice wavy curls and accessorized with matching shoes. The dress featured cut-outs on both sides and rhinestone detailing on the skirt.

Coleman recently made heads lines when Fashion Police’s Giuliana Rancic made a controversial statement about the teens faux dreadlocks, “I feel that she smells like patchouli oil and weed.” The comment left a sour taste in many people’s mouth, including fellow co-host Kelly Osbourne and Kathy Griffin, who both departed from the show soon after the scandal. Rancic went on to apologize on twitter and in a taped segment for E! News for her stereotypical remarks and took responsibility for her actions. Coleman forgave the E! host and used the opportunity to shed some light on prejudice in society.
