Zendaya’s Shoe Size 10 and Bold Fashion: Claire Stoermer’s Influence on Her Confidence

Zendaya has become one of Hollywood’s most versatile style icons, recognized not only for her acting but also for her bold fashion and footwear choices.

Standing tall at 5’10” with a US shoe size 10, she has embraced statement heels, championed top designers on the red carpet, and even launched her own shoe line.

From glitter pumps at the airport to Christian Louboutin stilettos at Hollywood galas, Zendaya’s shoe journey reflects her evolution as a confident style leader.

Family Elegance: Zendaya and Her Parents, Height & Confidence

Zendaya seems to have inherited her tall stature from her mother, who looks even taller than her father in family photos.

Zendaya also opened up about her journey toward self-confidence in an interview with InStyle.

“Confidence takes time. A lot of people would be like, ‘Why don’t you just love yourself?’ or ‘Why don’t you just feel better?’ That stuff is much easier said than done,” she shared. “Growing to understand and appreciate yourself takes time. And we’re all figuring it out.”

As an example, Zendaya highlighted her mother’s late-blooming self-assurance, describing it as a “butterfly moment” that emerged at the age of 50. Her message: confidence can arrive at any stage in life, and it’s okay to embrace that process at your own pace.

Building on her message of self-confidence, Zendaya carried that same empowered energy onto the red carpet with bold, statement-making fashion choices.

A few years earlier, before cementing her red-carpet dominance, Zendaya had already begun exploring her creativity beyond acting and fashion campaigns.

Airport Style: From Glitter Pumps to Her Shoe Line Journey

Following in the footsteps of celebrity designers such as Victoria Beckham, in 2015, Zendaya joined the lineup of stars who have ventured out into the design world.

Zendaya initially launched her own footwear collection under the name Sole of Daya, which was later rebranded as Daya by Zendaya.

While the line generated buzz alongside other celebrity ventures, such as those of Kendall and Kylie Jenner, it ultimately faced challenges, including unfulfilled orders and customer complaints.

Zendaya later announced on Instagram that she was no longer affiliated with the company behind the brand, assuring fans that she would personally ensure all outstanding orders were resolved.
