It’s an ultra glamorous night in London this evening as the star-studded cast of Wicked: For Good descend on the red carpet to celebrate the European Premiere.
It of course, wouldn’t be a Wicked occasion without the leading ladies, both Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande, dressing to impress in equally swoonworthy ensembles.
Ariana, who plays the part of 'Glinda the Good', decided to shock fans in a not-so-Glinda-coded gown, as her character is known for sporting shades of baby pink and dusty blue. Instead, she clearly took style cues from her co-star, Cynthia who plays Elphaba (aka The Wicked Witch of the West) who wears all black.

The glamorous gown fitted the 32-year-old like a glove, the boned bodice shaping her petite figure perfectly.

Makeup-wise, Ariana kept her porcelain complexion natural, while a sharp contour chiselled her cheekbones. On her eyes, she donned her signature black winged liner look, accompanied by fluttering false lashes. A touch of pink blush gave warmth to her skin, while a lick of rosy lipstick tied the whole look together.
Allowing all emphasis to be on her extravagant princess dress, she wore a simple set of diamond studs in her ears and a dazzling diamond choker necklace with teardrop pendants around her neck.

Of course, her best friend and colleague, Cynthia, was also dressed to the nines in a strapless navy dress, elevated with black patent sleeves and a leather belt.
Fans of Wicked have been waiting for the second film to come out ever since the credits rolled during the first silver screen flick. The official release date in the UK is November 21st, falling on a Friday, so die-hard fans can make an event of it.
