Ariana Grande Wears Vintage Vivienne Westwood to the 2026 AFI Awards

Ariana Grande wears a vintage Vivienne Westwood pink dress at the 2026 AFI Awards in Los Angeles, styled with subtle Wicked-inspired details.

Ariana Grande leaned into quiet drama at the 2026 AFI Awards in Los Angeles, choosing an archival Vivienne Westwood look that felt thoughtful and personal. Styled by Law Roach, the singer and actor arrived in a dusty pink strapless dress that balanced structure with softness.

The vintage Westwood design featured a fitted bodice with gentle corsetry that shaped the waist without feeling rigid. The skirt fell into a gathered midi length, full and fluid, with delicate strips of fabric suspended from the hem. That slightly undone detail gave the dress a deconstructed edge, adding movement as she walked the carpet. The muted pink tone subtly nodded to Glinda, her character in Wicked: For Good, without tipping into costume territory.

Grande kept the styling clean and restrained. She paired the dress with pointed-toe cream heels and skipped heavy accessories, opting instead for simple Swarovski stud earrings. Her hair was worn sleek and pulled back, and her makeup stayed soft, letting the texture and shape of the dress take center stage.

The archival moment followed another standout appearance earlier this awards season, when Grande wore a flowing Alberta Ferretti gown to the Critics Choice Awards. Together, the looks show a clear direction, vintage silhouettes, romantic tones, and styling that feels intentional rather than loud.
