Was Cynthia Erivo saving her “better” look for the ‘Wicked’ Sydney photocall? It certainly felt that way when the British actress stepped out in a striking Marc Jacobs ensemble featuring an embroidered green long-sleeve top and a black guipure lace midi skirt earlier today.
This look captured the daring personality Cynthia brings to the red carpet at her best. After an underwhelming Louis Vuitton moment at the premiere, this outfit felt like a triumphant return to form.
For those who love Cynthia with character and flair, this Marc Jacobs ensemble is a welcome shift. The intricate embroidery and lace detailing—it’s quintessentially Cynthia: bold, elegant, and unique. In terms of fashion risks, this outfit delivers on all fronts. The Marc Jacobs Kiki platforms add an extra punch of drama, enhancing the look’s distinctive character, along with the opulent Mèrenor by Amie Satchu jewels.
However, not everyone will love the entire styling. The most divisive piece is likely to be the “ode to ‘One Hundred and One Dalmatians’” fascinator. While it’s quirky and daring, some may find it excessive. I, for one, could have done without it. That said, the exaggerated cuffs on her top help to tie in the headpiece, adding cohesion to this adventurous look.
This Marc Jacobs outfit is a thrilling contrast to her premiere appearance. Cynthia brings the theater of fashion to Sydney, captivating with a look that was daring and layered with detail. Polarizing? Likely. Undeniably memorable? Absolutely.
Stylist: Jason Bolden.
