Ariana Madix‘s latest look proves all that glitters is gold.
The Vanderpump Rules star shined bright in a glimmering cutout dress to make her hosting debut on the sixth season of Peacock’s hit reality series Love Island USA.
If anything, Ariana turned the show into her personal runway as she made a dramatic entrance with her curve-hugging metallic gold gown from Di Petsa.
The wet-like design featured several pendant adornments and a plunging neckline with multiple cutouts that showcased the star’s underboobs and abs. She completed her golden goddess look with matching Alexandre Birman heels and jewelry pieces from Simon G. and Gemma Azzuro.
As for her glam? The 38-year-old opted for a sun-kissed glow with her warm-toned makeup and effortless beachy waves.
“To follow in the slo-mo footsteps of such iconic women to host my favorite show is beyond an honor,” Ariana captioned her June 11 Instagram. “Thank you for welcoming me to the love island family!”
The reality TV star hasn’t been afraid push the boundaries with her style in recent years.
In fact, she entered a fiery new fashion era during the season 10 reunion of Vanderpump Rules when she donned a red-hot “revenge dress.” She wore the sizzling piece just weeks after breaking up with Tom Sandoval amid his months-long affair with former cast member Rachel “Raquel” Leviss.

Ariana recently reflected on the jaw-dropping moment and how her fashion has evolved.
“It is interesting that term ‘revenge dress,’” Ariana told E! News while promoting her partnership with BIC EasyRinse. “It was something Andy Cohen said, but nothing I ever thought while picking a dress for the day.”
As for her best style advice? “Dress for yourself.”
“There’s something to be said about being your best when you feel your best,” she continued, “and part of that feeling comes from having confidence in what you’re wearing.”
