Cynthia Erivo continues to serve head-turning looks, and her latest appearance in London was no exception. The multi-talented star stepped out for a Q&A event at the Mayfair Hotel to promote her upcoming album “I Forgive You,” set to release on June 6.
Erivo brought her signature bold style to the stage, rocking a dramatic, draped top in a soft off-white shade that had a sculptural, almost dress-like feel. The asymmetrical neckline casually slipped off one shoulder, giving the look an effortless edge. She paired it with sleek chocolate brown leather pants that added contrast and structure to the ensemble.
To complete the outfit, Erivo slipped into a stunning pair of Christian Louboutin platform booties. Drenched in a rich chocolate suede, the boots perfectly echoed the tone of her pants. The shoes featured a rounded toe, chunky platform, and sky-high stiletto heel — plus the signature Louboutin red sole, of course. She layered on some standout jewelry to finish the look, adding just the right amount of sparkle.
Erivo’s love for platform boots is no secret. Just last weekend at Coachella, she rocked a towering pair of thigh-high Louboutins while performing her track “Brick by Brick.” And if you’ve seen the cover of her new album, you probably noticed the clear Pleaser lace-up platforms she wore there too — a striking choice that captures her fearless style.
Platform boots are practically a Cynthia Erivo trademark by now. Over the years, she’s stepped out in bold styles from fashion-forward footwear labels like Casadei and Pleaser, not to mention her go-to, Louboutin.
Throughout the “Wicked” star press tour, Erivo has dazzled both on and off the red carpet. Her fashion moments are often crafted in collaboration with celebrity stylist Jason Bolden, who also styles the likes of Nicole Kidman, Gabrielle Union, Ellen Pompeo, Kacey Musgraves, and Cara Delevingne. Together, Erivo and Bolden have created red carpet magic, dressing her in show-stopping pieces from Dior, Givenchy, Dolce & Gabbana, Marc Jacobs, and more.
And yes — more often than not, she’s in platforms.
Earlier this year, the dynamic duo graced the cover of The Hollywood Reporter’s 2025 Power Stylists issue, a well-deserved nod to their fashion influence.
From high-octane stagewear to sleek event looks, Cynthia Erivo continues to prove that her style is as powerful and expressive as her voice — and we can’t wait to see what she wears next as the “I Forgive You” era unfolds.
