Love Island USA: Ariana Madix’s best looks so far

Season 6 of Love Island USA gives the audience a lot to talk about. And the presenter too, Ariana Madix. And not just because the series airs every day (except Wednesdays). Thanks to a very chaotic cast and a barrage of shocking twists, this could be the best season yet. Even loyal Love Island UK followers are abandoning ship.

And while the drama is definitely compelling, it’s not the only reason the Peacock series is such a hot topic. This is the first season that Vanderpump Rules star and Love Island superfan Ariana stars in. Ever since she made her first slow-motion entrance into the villa, Ariana has left viewers and islanders speechless. Simply put, Ariana looks better than ever.

For her dream job as a presenter, Ariana is working with Emily Men, her long-time stylist. Right now, they’re as successful as world-famous celebrity/stylist team Zendaya and Law Roach. While there’s yet to be a miss, here are the looks that are as hot as the villa’s signature fire pit so far.

Ariana is a golden goddess

At the season 6 premiere of Love Island USA, Ariana nailed her debut as host. And she looked damn good doing it! That gold dress fit her so perfectly, it was like it was literally molded onto her body. Whether intentional or not, she looked like the goddess of love, Aphrodite. Ariana and her stylist set themselves very high standards. And, what’s even more impressive, they managed to exceed that bar with each subsequent appearance.

Ariana in her flirtatious and flourishing era

Ariana changed things up for her second appearance in the Season 6 premiere. This dress reminds me of Jennifer Garner’s iconic party look in 30 Going on 30. As a millennial, Ariana would definitely agree that this is the ultimate compliment.

A sex bomb in lingerie

Ariana looked so hot in this lingerie ensemble that attendees thought she was the new bombshell. Can anyone blame them? It was a lingerie party after all, and Ariana’s little black dress showed off her stunning body. She also managed to ooze old Hollywood glamour with some serious ice cream, dramatic sleeves, and sultry red nails. Of course, this outfit would have been too risqué for the censors of the time. While Ariana’s jaws dropped at the real bombshell’s daring antics, ours were still open-mouthed at her performance.

For reasons I will never understand, the video of her super sexy slow motion performance received a comment from a body shaming troll. Of course, Ariana countered with a perfect response. She followed up the criticism on her legs, writing, “I work on my sexy legs almost every day. I would break your neck with my thighs but I will never let you get close enough to touch me.” Burn!

Hello Barbie!

Ariana appears on every episode of Love Island USA’s weekly talk show Aftersun, hosted by Maura Higgins. Unsurprisingly, she looks amazing every time. But so far, my favorite of her aftersun looks is this pink metallic mini dress from Week 2. With her perfect blonde beach waves, Ariana looked like a Barbie doll come to life. If last summer’s blockbuster gets a sequel, they should definitely give her a call.

Beautiful in Pink Part II

Ariana continued the Barbiecore trend the following night. In addition to her outfits, Ariana also changed up her hairstyle with each performance. This sleek fringe with the fun wave detail is one of the best yet. And she managed to wear neon pink makeup that matched her dress perfectly. A friend of mine described this dress as a sexy but formal figure skating costume, and I can’t put it any better. The jeweled details, especially the palm tree design on the side, are just incredible.

Ariana also received a 10 for her role as host on this episode. After the contestants voted to eliminate two of her co-stars, the villa descended into chaos. Perhaps thanks to her years of experience as the voice of reason on Vanderpump Rules, Ariana was able to bring the situation under control. And she saw through the men’s theatrics – again very reminiscent of her time on Vanderpump Rules. It cannot be stressed enough: Ariana is the perfect host.

At this point, viewers are eagerly awaiting Ariana’s outfits and the results of the rematches and public votes. The season is only halfway over and we already have so many looks that make our mouths water. Surely we’ll have to make a whole new list in the coming weeks.
