From Versace dresses channeling Jenna Rink to knitted bucket hats, her sartorial choices have been stealing the show.
We are only a few weeks in, but Ariana Grande’s legacy on The Voice is already better than we’ve could have imagined. The talent, the humor, the sassy witty remarks to fellow judge Blake Shelton (of which there have been many), and so much more are a few of the reasons why we’re beyond obsessed with the series’ new vocal guide. And of course, then there are the Looks — yes, with a capital “L.”
Ari has brought her signature style to the set of The Voice and we are living for it. While it appears she’s starting to lean into a more natural, mature look — particularly with her hair and makeup — there’s been no shortage of fun and glamour served on the sartorial side. From fringe to heels to, yes, even a cowboy hat, Ari’s fashion on The Voice has been the breath of fresh air we needed.
Here, we look at some of the best looks Ariana has worn The Voice thus far, compiled for your viewing pleasure.
Seeing Blue
Monochromatic ‘fits are always a yes and Ari nailed it with this all-leather Klein Blue moment during the live top 11 eliminations.
Exclusive Glamour
For the top 11 live performances, Ariana wore a custom ‘fit from Off-White. She combined the ’fit with a pair of timeless but trendy platform Mary Jane shoes, which are actually from By Far’s upcoming collab with her long-time stylist Mimi Cuttrell.
Business Casual
You can never go wrong with a black blazer and a black bow.
Tickled Pink
During the top 13 live performances, Ari was the definition of pretty in pink.
Timeless Edge
This whole ensemble from courrèges is simply stunning.
Thirty, Flirty, and Thriving
No, we haven’t traveled back to Ari’s “thank u, next” era but the singer is taking style cues from ‘00s rom-coms once again. On November 8, for the first live show of The Voice, Ariana basically cosplayed Jennifer Garner’s Jenna Rink from 13 Going on 30 with this Versace dress, which looks was custom-made. (Ari posted about the dress tagging Donatella Versace herself and her stylist Mimi Cuttrell on Instagram stories but did not share much about its genesis.) From the ‘fit to the hair and the makeup (courtesy of r.e.m. beauty, of course), not a single detail went amiss and we are loving all of it.
Funky Fringe
Fringe has never been so fashionable. This lavender two-piece was a bright, electric moment on set, and certainly one of Ari’s best looks on the show. (Per Vogue, the piece is custom by Ivan Young.)
A Classy Queen
In a promotional image for the show, Ari slipped into a pair of silver heels, light gray pants, and sheer brown and green top. It was simple, much more so than Ari’s usual ensembles, yet superbly classy.
A Gen Z Legend
Ari might be a millennial but she looks like she stepped directly out of a TikTok with this look. In true Gen Z fashion, she paired a black puffer jacket and wide-leg jeans with a knitted bucket hat. And, of course, she sported a coffee in hand to complete the look — caffeine lovers, rejoice.
Dolly Parton Would Be Proud
In the show’s opening episode, Ariana emerged on stage to perform a duet alongside fellow judge Kelly Clarkson to the tune of “Respect” by Aretha Franklin. Ari wore a Dolly Parton-inspired look, cowboy hat and all. The best part: The pink bell-bottoms, which perfectly captured her shape. The look was courtesy of Prabal Gurung.
Simple Beauty
Sometimes, though, it’s time to put the cowboy hats away and call on the simplicity. In another promotional image for the show, Ariana wore an all-black ensemble from Blumarine: A sparkly frill dress, black tights, and black heels, completed with some heavy winged linger and a pop of pink in her lip and outer eye — probably all from r.e.m. beauty.
Scarf Tops are Back
You heard it here first: The scarf tops trend is back, at least according to Ari. In preparation for the final battle round on The Voice, Ari slipped into this purple gradient-patterned top with a simple asymmetrical skirt below. It was simple — which appears to be Ari’s new mantra in her style choices — yet uber cute. (Again, according to Vogue, Ari’s is vintage from Gucci.)
Precious Jewel
Ari gave us a sneak peek at her emerald look from Miss Sohee, which she wore for the knockout rounds, and it’s everything you’d want in a holiday ‘fit. (Also, mark our words, gloves will be one of 2022’s biggest trends.)
