Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo started their own Wicked adventures in Australia!

On Sunday, November 3, the duo, who star in the much-anticipated film adaptation of the beloved Broadway musical, attended the “Journey Through Oz” tour at the State Theater in Sydney, celebrating the film’s Australian premiere, as part of a global press tour.

Like her character Glinda, Grande, 31, arrived in style, wearing a voluminous pink dress, which featured a fitted bodice and striking sleeves covered in a sheer fabric that featured glitter detailing and a full skirt. She completed the look with a diamond butterfly necklace and diamond butterfly ring from Lorraine Schwartz, and wore her hair in a sleek ponytail with one loose curl framing her face.

Erivo, 37, who plays Elphaba, departed from her character’s signature green in a sleek strapless black dress that featured a striking structured skirt that flared at her hips. The actress and singer paired Grande with her own necklace, a black and white statement piece that perfectly complemented her dress.
