Ariana Grande Wears Celestial Glamor with Her Handmade 3D Wings at the 2024 Met Gala

Pop star Ariana Grande is back on the carpet for Met Gala 2024 looking like a heavenly dream. She is a good witch after all.

“This look so captures Ari’s ethereal and enchanting nature as she evolves as an artist,” says Michael Anthony, who was in charge of the evening’s glamour. “It’s all about dreams and imagination.”

Most notable are Grande’s 3D wings, which are handmade. “Ari entrusted me with the process of designing ethereal petal wings that we placed on the temples.” From that moment on, the focus was on “a timeless glamor that incorporated the mother-of-pearl effect of her beautiful outfit.”

For the rest of the look, Ariana Grande was more subdued, with pearly skin and sheer washes of pretty pink — all products came from the pop star’s line, REM Beauty. Anthony says the Hypernova Satin Matte Blush in Pinking of You “gives the perfect soft pink glow.”

The rest of the look came together with stylist Mimi Cuttrell, Michael Anthony, Alyx Liu on hair and nails by Daniel Taverez.

“I’ve always been interested in fantasy and the ethereal world of gemstones and Mother Earth, so the custom-made Loewe mother-of-pearl corset was all I needed to get inspired,” says Anthony of the beauty ideals process. “This year’s Met theme ‘Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion’ is itself so rich in inspiration and so in tune with Ari’s world!!”
