Style Transformation: Ariana Grande Over the Years
Ariana Grande and Justin Bieber have been sweeping all headlines after their latest track, ‘Stuck With U’ dropped. So, we thought we’d take the celebrations a step forward with a look at Ariana Grande’s style evolution over the years. From tiny skirts and frocks to frilly gowns – she’s done it all. We already gave you a taste of Demi Lovato’s style evolution over the years. So, now, that being said, let’s look at Ariana’s glow up in terms of fashion choices over the years. (2011-2020)
2. Ariana Grande attended KIIS FM’s Jingle Ball 2012 at Nokia Theatre LA Live on December 3, 2012. Green and Gold – a colour combo that never fails to deliver.This one’s a very interesting choice, particularly the gold embroidery. She looks elegant, well, despite the adorable baby face. It didn’t take long to grow out of that though.

In terms of style, of course. She’s always had a fondness for tiny skirts and boy, there ain’t nobody who can pull it off the way she does.

8. Ariana Grande performed with The Roots on December 18, 2018. May we also inform you that this is definitely Ariana’s second favourite outfit: the oversized hoodie. It’s simple. Some might call it lazy, but if Ari says it’s fashion then this debate is over.

10. Ariana Grande attends the 62nd Annual GRAMMY Awards at STAPLES Center on January 26, 2020. Speaking of turning into a princess, with those frills she’s doing complete justice to the role. Also, what a glow up. The baby face is gone. The winged liner is on point. And this time, that grey’s somehow makin’ her light up the whole room.
