It only looked like Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo were walking down a runway as they brought a lot of wow with their fashion during the Paris Olympics opening ceremony.
The Wicked co-stars looked stunning walking the red carpet ahead of the opening ceremony in Paris, France. Erivo donned a custom Louis Vuitton green satin bustier gown with 3D double folded details on the skirtwith a matching belt, green coated boxy hat and metallized calf leather pumps.
Grande looked equally stunning in a custom pink duchess silk Thom Browne dress, which featured pleat with bow detail. She matched the fit with silk gloves with pink and white pebble grain leather pumps.
Ahead of attending the opening ceremony, the duo walked the red carpet and spoke to NBC Sports and shared that they did not coordinate their outfits. They said it was a mere coincidence, something Grande says has happened quite a bit since they met during the first day of rehearsals.
The duo also shared who they're excited to see compete at these games, which, like the rest of the nation, include Simone Biles and the rest of Team USA, as well as track star Sha'Carri Richardson. It's a day of firsts for the gals, who are attending their first Olympic Games.
