The fantastically fashionable press tour for Wicked: For Good has begun, with Cynthia Erivo fronting Harper’s Bazaar’s November issue.

The star is shot by Cass Bird against stark backdrops with a flurry of magically enchanting and dynamic couture, hailing from Giorgio Armani Privé, Balenciaga Haute Couture, Schiaparelli Haute Couture, Maison Margiela Artisanal, and many more. Naturally, Christian Louboutin, Jimmy Choo, and more outfitted the actress in her go-to sky-high heels for the occasion, as well. In addition to her upcoming role as Elphaba in the Wicked sequel film, Erivo chats about her upcoming memoir, and visualizing full parts of a look when planning her press tour outfits. You can read her full feature now on HarpersBazaar.com.

“Elphaba will be part of my life forever, but we need separation,” Erivo says. “We’re not one and the same anymore, but we can be friends. What I love is having had the chance to play her when she has to figure out what she is and play her again when she knows.”
