Ariana Madix Hits the BravoCon 2023 Stage in Plunging Menswear-Inspired Look

It's no secret that Ariana Madix has quickly established herself as one of the most stylish Bravolebrities. In the months since her highly publicized split with her Vanderpump Rules castmate Tom Sandoval, Ariana has consistently gifted fans with stellar fashion moments, including the skin-baring “revenge” dress she selected for the Season 10 reunion special; the angelic ruffled gown she donned at the White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner; and the neon pantsuit she rocked while presenting at NBCUniversal’s 2023 Upfronts event.

Ariana kept up the momentum on Day 1 of BravoCon 2023, when she hit the stage in a menswear-inspired look that was equal parts sexy and chic. She wore a white plunging collared shirt layered underneath a black tuxedo jacket and tucked inside a pair of matching hot pants. Ariana completed the ensemble with layered chains around the waist, black knee-high boots, delicate earrings, and a black bow on her slicked-back hair bun.

Ariana’s glam was credited to Las Vegas-based makeup artist Maile Bello, while her hairstyle was by Gregory Salon owner, Shelley Gregory, with assistance from extensions specialist Zoe Heavner.

The former SUR bartender chose the head-turning outfit for the SUR’ving Up the Latest with Vanderpump Rules panel presented by Lay’s. The event was moderated by Karamo and featured Ariana’s castmates Tom Sandoval, Tom Schwartz, Katie Maloney, Lala Kent, James Kennedy, Ally Lewber, Scheana Shay, Brock Davies, and Lisa Vanderpump.

During the 45-minute sit-down, Ariana was asked to share her thoughts on the upcoming season of Vanderpump Rules and the emotions she felt while filming. She said the experience was “weird,” “different,” and “difficult,” and was simply glad that Season 11 was behind her.

“I knew it was going to be difficult, I knew it was going to be weird,” she said. “I knew that I was gonna have some very strong and some very negative feelings. But, ultimately, I think if anything, the last year has shown me that I can do hard things. It was hard, but we did it.

“… I’m not the first, I will not be the last,” she said in reference to Tom Sandoval’s infidelity. “My experience is not unique, but I think that meeting and speaking to many people, they made me feel like I wasn’t so alone. And, hopefully, I made them feel like they weren’t alone, as well.”
