‘Wicked’ Bold Jewels: How to Accessorize Like Cynthia Erivo
Actress and singer Cynthia Erivo is making headlines for her impeccable performance as Elphaba in the new Wicked movie. Accessorized with bling at every premiere and interview, Erivo’s jewelry stacks are just another reason she is a star.
Erivo is widely known for her compelling performances and powerhouse vocals. However, she is also a respected jewelry connoisseur in the fashion space, winning the “Jewelry Style” honor at the 2024 GEM Awards.
Her style is maximalist, blingy, and colorful, and whether she’s on a red carpet or living her day-to-day, her jewelry always draws an eye. Let’s explore how to accessorize like the Wicked star.
Last month, Erivo teamed up with luxury designer jewelry brand Muse, on an Elphaba-inspired collection for the brand’s “Have a Heart” initiative, where the collaborator chooses a charity for 10% of the collection proceeds to be donated.
Erivo chose Dreams of Hope, an organization that empowers LGBTQ+ youth to thrive within the arts. While this collection is at a higher price point, Erivo’s jewelry style can be recreated on a budget.
Erivo’s signature ring style is bold. Incorporating chunky shapes and bright colors is key. Mix metals and stones, and style a stack of bands on top of others and you are channeling Mrs. Erivo.
Shapes and statements are the key to necklaces Cynthia-style. Don’t be afraid to explore large embellishments and charms. Erivo loves anything bling: diamonds, rhinestones, and colored stones. Check out affordable options at Macy’s, Ann Taylor, and Etsy to make you sparkle.
The more earrings, the better when it comes to Erivo’s maximalist aesthetic. Arrange hugger hoops and funky studs like a constellation on cartilage piercings and add a large, dangly statement earring in your first hole.
