Under the expert styling of Jason Bolden, Cynthia Erivo made a memorable entrance at the 2025 National Board of Review Gala in New York City, dressed in a breathtaking custom Loewe ball gown. This elegant piece featured a flowy, voluminous design crafted from a semi-sheer textured fabric in dark grey and white. The gown’s dramatic structured silhouette not only enhanced her figure but also added an element of sophistication to her overall look. To combat the chilly NYC temperatures, Erivo complemented the gown with a stylish, oversized white coat, perfectly balancing warmth and chicness.

In addition to her striking gown, Erivo’s Elphaba-inspired nails garnered significant attention, showcasing her flair for dramatic manicures that have captivated audiences throughout the “Wicked” promotional period. With a radiant smile, she flaunted her long, freshly manicured nails at the star-studded gala, highlighting her commitment to a captivating overall aesthetic. For accessories, Erivo chose exquisite pieces from Roberto Coin, including her signature dazzling earrings and rings, which added a touch of glamour. To complete her stunning look, she opted for a classic pair of black Christian Louboutin shoes, further elevating her fashion statement.
