Cynthia Erivo has been reaching for Christian Louboutin virtually nonstop this year while promoting the musical fantasy film Wicked: For Good. And as she entered the final stretch before its November 21, 2025, release, she kept the momentum going.

During a recent appearance on The View, she was photographed arriving and leaving the studio in not one but two different versions of the Christian Louboutin “Cassia Nodo” boots. She was treating the sidewalk as an extension of the press tour, switching things up without losing her signature edge.

Wicked: For Good has already brought in an impressive $226 million worldwide, making it a commercial success, despite critiques and viewers being less thrilled this time around, giving it more mixed reviews than its predecessor.

But while the film’s reception was divided, Cynthia Erivo’s outfit was anything but. She showed up looking like a winner in her own right, delivering looks that were just as strong as the movie’s box-office run.

Commanding in Blue Christian Louboutin Cassia Nodo Boots and Coperni Short Suit

Cynthia Erivo arrived at The View in a sleek, modern, and instantly eye-catching ensemble. The first thing I noticed was her blue suede Christian Louboutin “Cassia Nodo” boots—easily the standout element of the outfit!

These boots looked luxurious even from afar, and the signature red soles added that unmistakable Louboutin touch. This version of the “Cassia” design retained the ballet-inspired details of the Cassia line, including ruched, squared toes and a bow-like knot across the upper.

These feminine elements were balanced by the knee-high shafts, thick platforms, and tall stiletto heels, giving the boots a powerful, sculptural feel. The blue suede made them especially striking; I couldn’t help but admire how rich and dimensional they looked.

Cynthia Elevates a Futuristic Coperni Short Suit With Luxe Accessories

She paired the striking boots with a gray Coperni short suit from the label’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection. The French womenswear label is known for its futuristic minimalism, and this outfit embodied that perfectly.

Cynthia wore the $1,070 Technical Tailored Jacket, which featured a crisp stand collar, structured shoulders, long sleeves with subtle perforated detailing, and a seamless lapel-free front fastened by two buttons. Instead of tucking it in, she wore it loose, making it look like a mini dress, though underneath she wore the matching $580 Technical Tailored Shorts, which were high-waisted and neatly fitted.

For accessories, Erivo kept things polished. She wore her signature nose ring and had her ears lined with multiple earrings, giving her a cool, artsy edge. She also adorned her fingers with nail art and a few rings, but the real stunner was her pair of Tiffany & Co. “Sixteen Stone” earrings, priced at $40,000. They were made in platinum with a cross-stitch motif and 2.49 carats of round brilliant diamonds alternating with platinum Xs.

She carried her essentials in the blue patent Mulberry “Bayswater” bag, which complemented the soft texture of her suede boots. The shape added a touch of classic elegance to an otherwise modern outfit.

Completing her ensemble were the $42 Saint Sass “Mom I am a Rich Man” tights, which added a fun detail that gave the look some personality. They were sheer enough to add a sultry edge, but what really made them memorable was the embroidered statement at the thighs. It was bold and added a hint of humor to her otherwise serious, structured outfit.

Dramatic in Black Christian Louboutin Cassia Nodo Boots With Altuzarra Layers and a Voluminous Fur Coat

Cynthia left The View in a completely different outfit but, of course, in another pair of Louboutins. This time, she switched into the black leather version of the Christian Louboutin “Cassia Nodo” boots, priced at $2,195 at Mytheresa.

The black calf leather made the ballet-inspired details, including the bow accents and the ruched, squared toes, look even sharper. The thick, sculptural platforms and towering 4-inch stiletto heels added that unmistakable Louboutin drama, giving the boots a bold architectural feel that instantly elevated Cynthia’s entire look.

Dramatic Altuzarra Layers Bring High Fashion Contrast to Her Louboutin Boots

Her outfit came from Altuzarra’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection, a brand known for its refined, modern femininity. I had to take a moment to process the outfit because it was definitely a lot!

Cynthia wore the $995 “Blaine” silk organza top in off-white, a semi-sheer piece with airy cap sleeves that lent the look a soft, romantic quality. Its dramatically extended high neckline, which rose nearly to her chin, introduced a bold, sculptural edge that turned the delicate fabric into a fully theatrical statement.

She tucked the top into the $1,495 “Chapman” balloon pants, crafted from black virgin wool. The pants had billowy legs that tapered into cuffed ankles, creating a dramatic silhouette that balanced the volume of the coat—well, somewhat.

The coat actually threw me off. It was oversized and fuzzy, with structured shoulders and layers of fur at the hem and cuffs that almost resembled bird feathers. It looked huge, practically swallowing the rest of her outfit, and, in my opinion, took the ensemble a little too far.

Cynthia appeared to be wearing the same multiple earrings, including the Tiffany & Co. earrings, and then kept her stuff in the Maison Margiela “5AC Loved to Death” calf leather medium top handle bag.

Priced at $4,300 at Bergdorf Goodman, the bag is crafted from supple calf leather with a slightly worn-in, distressed finish. The rolled top handles gave it a classic silhouette, but the exposed top-zip and the signature front logo label added that deconstructed touch the brand is known for.

Sleek in Patent Christian Louboutin Hot Chick Pumps and a Sculptural Bottega Veneta Fur Coat

At the 2025 GQ Men of the Year Awards, Cynthia Erivo stepped onto the red carpet in a sleek, sculptural, and unexpected ensemble. And yes—she wore yet another pair of Louboutins. This time, she slipped into the “Hot Chick” pumps, which were perfectly suited to the event’s mood.

These weren’t just any black pumps. They had hand-stitched scalloped edges that curved along the sides, giving them a soft, flirtatious silhouette, and the exaggerated arch and pointed toes made them look even more dramatic. Set on slender 4-inch stiletto heels, the shiny black patent leather gave them a sharp, mirror-like finish that caught the light with every step. For anyone tempted, they’re $945 at Mytheresa.

A Sculptural Bottega Veneta Fur Coat Turns Her Pumps Into a Red-Carpet Power Move

Cynthia balanced those classic pumps with something more avant-garde up top. She wore a fur coat from Bottega Veneta’s Spring 2026 collection, creative director Louise Trotter’s debut.

Cynthia wore it as a mini dress, which instantly made the piece feel youthful and more playful. The coat itself was stunning, thanks to its blue-gray shade with a striking texture created from fiberglass needles woven together. It had this shimmering, hair-like movement that looked electric against the red background.

Erivo finished the look with jewelry from Marli, which added polish without taking away from the bold coat. On her ears were the Cleo Rev Diamond Earrings in 18K white gold, sparkling just enough to frame her face. Her hands were stacked with multiple rings, including the $3,700 Cleo Full Diamond Slim Ring, the $8,700 Cleo Rev Full Diamond Ring, the $4,500 Avenues Ring, the $5,900 LIFE Full Diamond Spinning Ring, the $5,400 LIFE Diamond Spinning Ring with green agate, and the $7,000 Cleo Full Diamond Ring.
