The premiere of WICKED: FOR GOOD marked the official opening of a magical world. Held in London, England, the event brought together the film’s leading stars, including Ariana Grande, who takes on the role of Glinda, the Good Witch. Ariana has revealed that being cast in this role feels like the greatest gift of her life.
Beyond her performance, one element that powerfully tells the story is her fashion. Throughout the promotional tour, Ariana has worked closely with renowned stylist Law Roach, and her looks have been nothing short of meaningful.

For the premiere, Ariana Grande appeared in a vintage black ball gown. What makes this dress truly special is its history—it originally appeared in the 1952 musical film Lovely to Look At and was designed by Gilbert Adrian, one of the most influential designers of his era. Adrian was also the costume designer behind the legendary 1939 film The Wizard of Oz, making this choice even more symbolic.
Law Roach and Ariana carefully sourced this iconic gown from Lily et Cie, a prestigious archive and boutique specializing in 20th- and 21st-century couture. Ariana shared that having this piece as part of her vintage collection—and being able to wear a design by Gilbert Adrian—made her feel deeply moved and at peace. The gown holds great meaning for both her and Law; she even revealed that they cried several times during the fitting.
Of course, the look would not be complete without her dazzling jewelry. Ariana paired the gown with sparkling diamond earrings and a diamond necklace, enhancing the elegance and elevating the entire ensemble to perfection.
A More Mature, Darker Direction
For this promotional tour, Ariana’s fashion choices reflect a more mature tone compared to last year’s Wicked: Part One. Previously, she embraced bright pink, princess-like dresses. This time, however, the styling leans into darker, more somber moods—mirroring the evolving depth and complexity of her character as a witch.
This shift has led many fans to wonder: will the title “the Good Witch” still apply? The answer, of course, awaits in the film’s final chapter.
Jewelry That Tells a Story
Another noticeable difference between the two promotional eras is Ariana’s choice of jewelry. In Part One, she wore vibrant pink gowns paired with a striking butterfly choker necklace weighing up to 90 carats, featuring rose-cut round diamonds set in a radiant formation, along with matching butterfly rings—creating a regal, fairytale-like look.
In contrast, for WICKED: FOR GOOD, Ariana opts for diamond necklaces and earrings with clean, refined designs. They are less extravagant, yet undeniably premium—conveying calmness, sophistication, and emotional restraint. This perfectly reflects the character she aims to portray.
As you can see, styling is not just about clothing; choosing the right jewelry to complement an outfit is equally important.
