Ariana Grande Picks Out Pristine White Pumps to Accent Ethereal ‘Wicked' Pink Dress at the 2025 SAG Awards
Ariana Grande brought her 'Wicked' character Glinda's ethereal aesthetic to the 31st SAG Awards, which took place at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles on Feb. 23. The actress and singer was dressed up in a pale pink Loewe gown for the occasion, and the look was punctuated by classic white pointed pumps. Like many ensembles showcased since entering her 'Wicked' era, a pastel pink color dominated Grande's look at the awards show on Sunday. The Loewe dress exuded vintage elegance with semi-sheer off-the-shoulder sleeves and a flowing skirt that swept the floor. The fitted bodice was adorned with feathery floral appliqués; this three-dimensional design became less concentrated across the skirt but was maintained down the garment. Her jewelry for the night were sparkling diamonds from Jared Atelier, including a choker, ring and dangly earrings.

While partially obscured by her dress, it was clear she wore a pair with a pointed toe, a classic and fierce characteristic of the longstanding footwear style. She very well may have been wearing a Jimmy Choo pair — she showcased white pumps from the brand in April at CinemaCon 2024. To name other examples, she's also stepped out in white Gianvito Rossi pumps as well white Loewe pumps, though the latter featured a distinctive rounded square toe. The 2025 Screen Actors Guild Awards will take place tonight, Feb. 23, at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. Kristen Bell will host the ceremony, which can be streamed live via Netflix with a subscription. Top stars set to attend include Pamela Anderson, Quinta Brunson, Timothée Chalamet, Colman Domingo, Cynthia Erivo, Ralph Fiennes, Harrison Ford, Lily Gladstone, Selena Gomez and Ariana Grande. 'Wicked' leads the charge with five nominations, going up against flicks like 'Emilia Perez' with three and 'A Complete Unknown' with four. During the ceremony, legendary actress Jane Fonda will receive the Lifetime Achievement award.
