Ariana Madix came dressed for revenge [1] for her first interview post-"Scandoval [2]." Shortly after the "Vanderpump Rules" season 10 finale on May 17, the reality TV star appeared on "Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen" in a showstopping lace gown, ready to reveal all. Featuring lace spider web detailing throughout, the dramatic black Alessandra Rich number [3] was the perfect choice for her return to the show. The "slutty funeral" dress, as Madix described it, consisted of a completely sheer high-low silhouette and asymmetric sleeves, with the see-through skirt exposing her cheeky bodysuit underneath.
Styled by Emily Men [4], Madix's striking look was finished with simple black sandal heels and a Pamela Anderson-inspired updo [5]. Bravo's Instagram account shared the ensemble from all angles ahead of the show, alongside a remix of "Look What You Made Me Do," a fan-favourite revenge song of Taylor Swift [6]'s. "The old Ariana can't come to the phone right now . . . who's ready for the new @arianamadix on #WWHL?" the caption read.
Madix previously donned another red-hot revenge dress to film the "Vanderpump Rules" reunion [7] in April, wearing a Mônot jacket and skirt set, with chest, ab, and waist cutouts on full display. In both instances, her dress choice certainly seems intentional — after all, the concept of the revenge dress was originally popularized by Princess Diana, who wore a now-iconic off-the-shoulder minidress the same night Prince Charles confessed to his affair.
Get a closer look at Madix's unexpected look ahead.
