While Wicked Part Two is over a year away, today's costume featurette gave a small glimpse at the film.

Leading up to the November 22 premiere of the first part of the film, a new featurette on Paul Tazewell's costumes gave a new look at his designs for the film.

The video also shows a first look at Ariana Grande wearing a Glinda costume not yet seen in any of the promotional materials for the first film, presumably since it will be worn in the second installation.

The costume seemingly pays homage to Susan Hilferty's Glinda gown in the Broadway production of Wicked. The blue and purple dress worn by Grande resembles the blue dress worn by Glinda in the beginning and end of the Broadway production.
