Grande finished off her Wicked press tour on a high note with this butter yellow Ralph Lauren number that she paired with Swarovski jewels.

In a champagne pink Louis Vuitton number, Grande co-signed the peplum trend during the Wicked New York premiere.

The singer and actress looked straight out of the land of Oz in this pearl white ball gown from Atelier Versace.

Grande went bold for her debut Wicked red carpet in Australia. She wore a dream-like Vivienne Westwood outfit that was an homage to her fellow Glinda Billie Burke and the dress she wore in 1939’s The Wizard of Oz.

Though she wasn’t draped in Glinda pink, Grande still brought the fantasy to the 2024 Met Gala in this custom Loewe look.

Grande’s Wicked style came into fous during the 2024 Oscars. She slipped into a ruched Giambattista Valli gown and a larger-than-life train.

Grande was the star of The Voice finale in a canary yellow Valentino dress with black opera globes.

While she didn’t walk the red carpet, Grande appeared onstage during the iHeartRadio Awards in a purple Rat and Boa set to perform “Save Your Tears” with The Weeknd.

It’s been about two and a half years since Grande walked the red carpet, but at least she left us with something to remember: this larger than life Giambattista Valli Haute couture dress at the 2020 Grammys.

Grande wore a light purple Christian Siriano mini dress with thigh-high suede boots to the Billboard Women in Music event in 2018.

While Grande shined in a silver mini dress and sparkly thigh-high boots from Le Silla, her then-fiancé, Pete Davidson, went with a much more casual look and opted to wear sweatpants to the 2018 VMAs.

Grande was unmissable at the 2018 Met Gala, wearing a custom Vera Wang gown featuring Michelangelo’s fresco, “The Last Judgement,” which is painted in the Sistine Chapel.

The singer paired a black lace crop top with wide leg white pants for the AMAs in 2016.

Grande loves a crop top, so it’s no surprise she opted to wear a black lace one by Alexander Wang to the 2016 VMAs with a pair of wide leg trousers.

Back when Grande was being styled by Law Roach, she attended the Billboard Music Awards in a graphic Atelier Versace dress with loads of cutouts.

When Ariana isn’t wearing a crop top, chances are she’s wearing a ball gown, which is what she went with for the Time 100 Gala in 2016—a black Christian Siriano dress with a voluminous tulle skirt.

Grande went a bit simpler for the Grammys in 2016, wearing a bright red Romona Keveza dress with her signature half-up ponytail.

The year before, she rocked the same hair style but instead wore a white Versace spring 2014 dress with a silver overlay.

Grande paired her leather, moto-inspired Moschino resort 2015 set with a pair of Tom Ford thigh-high boots.

The singer looked adorable in a crystal-encrusted Georges Chakra spring 2013 couture mini dress at the Teen Choice Awards in 2014.

Grande opted for a more retro look at the 2014 Grammys, wearing a cherry blossom-covered Dolce & Gabbana dress with pearl earrings.
