One The Sims 4 player has created some impressive looks for Elphaba and Glinda from Universal Pictures’ Wicked movie franchise, generating some extra buzz as Wicked: For Good graces cinema screens. The customization options in The Sims 4 are among its biggest selling points, and this fan has used them to pay homage to two of the most beloved Broadway characters of the last few decades.
Retelling the story of The Wizard of Oz from the Wicked Witch’s perspective, Wicked began its life as a novel series by Nancy Holder and Debbie Viguié before rocketing to stage musical stardom in 2003. The Broadway smash success was adapted to a movie in 2024, but the plot only covered the show through intermission. Now, Wicked: For Good‘s cast has returned to movie theaters to wrap up the rest of the story, with Cynthia Erivo’s Elphaba and Ariana Grande’s Glinda leading the charge.

Even with all of its possibilities, The Sims 4 can still get boring after a while. These storylines should help liven things up.
Sims 4 Player Makes Wicked: For Good’s Elphaba and Glinda
Alongside the second Wicked movie’s release, one talented creator has used the Create-a-Sim tools to bring Shiz University’s two most promising students into the world of The Sims 4. Reddit user Lobrees has uploaded images of both of the leading ladies in a variety of fashions, and since neither of them are too big on wearing the same old school uniforms as the chorus, there were a lot of options to choose from. For Elphaba, these looks cover a lot of ground, including her big-shouldered black dress from her first day at Shiz, the sky-blue-shirted look she sported in the library dance number, and multiple fashions that include the famous hat she was gifted from Glinda, with black always being the primary color.
Just as in the movies, Glinda’s outfits sport a lot more bright colors than Elphaba’s, and her flair for fashion is shown in the creator’s work. This broader range of styles should help fans more easily denote which of the two films each came from, as her crowned appearance reflects the much more traditional look inspired by1939’s The Wizard of Oz. While the later fashions are grandiose, there are also choices that are sure to evoke memories of great songs from the first Wicked movie, including outfits inspired by her “Dancing Through Life” and “What is This Feeling?” scenes.
Elphaba and Glinda aren’t the only two characters this creator has contributed to The Gallery. They have also produced some great recreations of icons from a variety of sources, from Winx Club to K-Pop Demon Hunters. Their gaming expertise clearly isn’t limited to The Sims either, as their catalog also includes several beloved characters from the Mario franchise, including Peach, Wario, Waluigi, and the titular brothers.
