When Ariana Grande takes the stage, magic follows, and her custom Robert Wun gown proves that. During NBC’s “Wicked: One Wonderful Night” special, she gave all those watching butterflies. The singer-actor looked absolutely stunning in a custom couture gown by Robert Wun, which the fashion designer dubbed The Pink Butterflies.
Ariana Grande wows in custom Robert Wun gown with butterfly embellishments
The custom Robert Wun gown looked ethereal on Ariana Grande, with a soft and romantic hue to it. It had a dramatic silhouette, cinching in at the pop icon’s waist and expanding into a dramatically flowy skirt that billowed with every stride.
From bodice to hem, numerous 3-D butterflies adorned the fabric, making it look like they landed on the pastel piece especially for the “One Last Time” singer. Each piece was handcrafted with precision and skill. The overall effect of the dreamy number was absolutely breathtaking.
Celebrity stylist Law Roach was the brain behind the statement-worthy gown. He described it as a dream brought to life, all thanks to the help of designer Robert Wun. Even the accessories accentuated the fantasy of the look.
The butterflies also appeared on Grande’s gloves, appearing on one of her wrists, delicately adorning her ears, and even tracing her arms like enchanted pieces that were ready to fly away. She completed the look with a sleek bun, allowing the gown’s craftsmanship to take the spotlight.
Wun and his team meticulously crafted each butterfly by hand. The designer, famous for combining poetic storytelling with architectural shapes, often uses butterflies in his design. He has hinted that the reason behind his stylistic choice is that they symbolize transformation and hope. On this night, the motif perfectly suited the moment as Grande prepares for “Wicked: For Good” to hit the theaters later this month.
While many make a statement on the red carpet, it is hard for a look to be immortalized in everyone’s memory. Ariana Grande didn’t just wear a gown — she wore a story — a piece of art that turned heads and had the critics giving her a round of applause.
