Updated 23 March: Boohoo has released an official statement regarding the Zendaya Edit.
Due to technical issues with our website, we want to apologise for not having all sizes available of the new product on our exciting launch day. We are working quickly to solve the problem and look forward to offering the full range of the Zendaya edit as soon as possible. Boohoo.com is inclusive to women of all sizes and is working diligently to restock the sold-out items in the full size range. Thank you so much to our loyal customers and we are thrilled to share the collection with everyone very soon.
We've been waiting with baited breath - and our debit cards - ever since Zendaya revealed she was teaming up with Boohoo to create a size-inclusive SS18 fashion collection, ranging from size 2-20.
However, shoppers voiced their outrage yesterday afternoon when they realised their sizes weren't offered when they tried to shop the newly-released range online.
Twitter user Alicia Michelle tweeted the actress about the issue, commenting: 'Really disappointed to find that @Zendaya's boohoo edit (advertised for sizes 2-20) does not have inclusive sizing across the board. #why?'
Given the fact Zendaya is a bonafide goddess, it took her less than an hour to respond explaining: 'I've looked into it, apparently the curve sizes sold out first and that's why they're not showing up as available.'
As a result, fans of the star have taken to social media to congratulate her on the 'queen of having a collection already selling out'.
However, ever the perfectionist, the 21-year-old went back to her original tweet to correct what she thought was a typo.
When a fan called out her screen-shot explaining that she was all good in the first place, she replied a hysterical: 'Cause y'all have me on edge😂'
We love how involved and educated Zendaya is in her fashion collaboration. We commend the star for addressing the issue with her fans head-on.
