Grande affirmed both predictions on March 2, when she showed up to the Oscars red carpet in what seemed to be a custom piece modeled off of Look 3 from the Schiaparelli 2025 Spring Couture Collection.

Wicked’s Ariana Grande, who is nominated for Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars 2025, teased her red carpet look for the Academy Awards in an exclusive interview with E! News.

Writer and actor Christian Weissmann also tweeted his guess on Feb. 1. “Need ariana grande to wear this to the oscars or else,” he said, along with a picture of the same Schiaparelli gown.
