Ariana Grande’s latest Wicked-inspired look marked a magical moment on the red carpet at the 82nd Golden Globes on Sunday evening (January 5).

Grande, 31, earned her dream role of Glinda in the film adaptation of the beloved Broadway musical. Grande stars in the Jon M. Chu-directed movie musical alongside Cynthia Erivo (Elphaba), Jonathan Bailey (Fiyero), Ethan Slater (Boq), Marissa Bode (Nessarose), Michelle Yeoh (Madam Morrible), Jeff Goldblum (The Wonderful Wizard of Oz) and others. Wicked is split into two films. the first premiered in November 2024, and the second is due in theaters in November 2025.

Throughout the year, Grande and Erivo have wore stunning looks inspired by their Wicked characters. Grande caught up with Variety on the red carpet on Sunday, sharing that the yellow gown — inspired by the iconic Yellow Brick Road — is nearly six decades old. She and her stylist ”were so excited” to discover Givenchy 1966 archive dress. Grande paired the dress with dazzling jewelry pieces and dramatic white opera gloves. She posed solo and alongside Wicked costar Erivo on the red carpet at The Beverly Hilton in Beverly Hills, California (the pair also recreated the viral “holding space” meme during the show).
