Ariana Grande’s Wicked Press Tour Fashion Is Peak Glinda Glamour
From bow-trimmed heels to bejeweled heels, see every perfectly pink look.
Ariana Grande found her “dream role” in Wicked and she’s more than dressing like it. Since Grande was announced as the upcoming live-action film’s Glinda, she’s been going all-in on themed looks designed in her character’s signature color: blush pink.
Along with her co-star Cynthia Erivo (who’s been wearing her fair share of Elphaba green) Grande is bringing the method dressing trend to “gravity-defying” heights. There’s coquette skirts trimmed with ribbons, ladylike suit sets, and of course on-the-nose references to the original Wicked production. Ahead of the film’s November 22, 2024 theatrical release, check back here to keep track of each and every one of Ariana Grande’s Wicked press tour looks.
Grande asked everyone to follow the (butter) Yellow Brick Road during the film’s UK premiere on November 18. The actress slipped into a tulle Ralph Lauren confection that nodded to a niche moment in the film’s Broadway production when Glinda visited the Emerald City.
Grande co-signed the red carpet peplum trend during the Wicked New York premiere. She picked out a strapless Louis Vuitton number that was designed in the perfect champagne pink color.
The actress and singer looked like the Glinda of dreams in this Giambattista Valli number she wore to The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
On her way to a Wicked event in New York City, Grande paired a demure blush pink dress with satin slipper-esque pumps.
Grande looked ethereal during the Wicked Mexico City premiere where she hit the yellow carpet in this iridescent Atelier Versace stunner.
The 1939 film The Wizard of Oz remains the most important interpretation of L. Frank Baum’s fantasy world and Grande’s Los Angeles premiere gown couldn’t help but recall Dorothy’s famous gingham dress. Appropriately, Grande’s was done in pink by Thom Browne. Likewise, while her shoes weren’t ruby red, they were appropriately bedazzled.
If Glinda was familiar with the coquette trend, she might wear something like this blush Bode set Grande picked out for the film’s Sydney photo call.
Grande went big for the film’s first major premiere, making a splash in a dramatic Vivienne Westwood gown. Not only was the couture piece a certain show-stopper, it was also an homage to Grande’s fellow Glinda Billie Burke and the dress she wore in 1939’s The Wizard of Oz.
During a special Wicked screening (where Grande met Glindas of past and present), she donned this ladylike Versace look.
