Ariana Grande fans have same reaction to Oscars 2025 red carpet look

Ariana Grande’s Oscars 2025 outfit is vintage Hollywood glamour – but with a twist.

The Wicked actress, 31, led the red carpet arrivals on Sunday evening along with her co-star and fellow Academy Award nominee Cynthia Erivo, 38.

Wearing a flaired-out nude corset with pale tulle netting attached, fans on X couldn’t help but remark that the look bore a striking resemblance to a household item.

@RachelWoollett asked: ‘Anyone else getting a vintage lampshade vibe #AcademyAwards2025#Oscars#Oscars2025.’

Echoing their sentiment, @emilybernay wrote: ‘The lampshade at the store waiting for you to buy it #Oscars.’

@the_squarrell agreed: ‘Ariana reminds me of a literal lampshade?? Not in a bad way. #Oscars2025 #Oscars #AcademyAwards2025 #ArianaGrande.’

@danidelle23 added: ‘Ariana Grande looks stunning but also a little bit like a lampshade #Oscars.’

Cynthia, meanwhile, drew inspiration from her Wicked character Elphaba in a dark green velvet dress for her outfit.

She appeared to have been inspired by the Tudors too, with her frock having a statement collar and an exaggerated hip.

Cynthia and the US popstar are nominated for best actress and best supporting actress respectively for the prequel to The Wizard Of Oz.

Their Wicked co-stars Jeff Goldblum, Bowen Yang and Ethan Slater were also among the Oscars’ early arrivals.
