Going from a bright-eyed child actor on network TV to the queen of gothic glam isn’t easy, but Jenna Ortega nailed it, especially on the red carpet.
You might remember her from “Jane The Virgin” or the Disney Channel’s “Stuck In The Middle,” but her lead role as Wednesday Addams on Netflix has undoubtedly cemented her as a star. The 21-year-old actress’ role in Tim Burton’s “Wednesday” and that unforgettable dance scene launched her into superstardom and solidified her status as a style icon. Plus, she’s already found success with thrillers like Scream VI and Miller’s Girl.
A perfect look always stands out, and Jenna Ortega knows how to slay. Check out 12 of her most jaw-dropping outfits from the Met Gala, movie premieres, and beyond.
1. Wednesday Core
At the 2023 Met Gala, Jenna Ortega fully embraced the evening’s theme by channeling her iconic character Wednesday in a Thom Browne creation. Her outfit consisted of a bold black corset paired with a grand, ruffled skirt featuring rough, unfinished edges.
In tribute to designer Karl Lagerfeld, she cleverly incorporated classic Chanel signatures such as pearls and black bows. The 21-year-old star also added a punk twist to her look with sheer knee-high socks, chunky platform brogues, and sparkling diamond jewelry from Marli New York.
2. Haute Hoodie Gown
Jenna Ortega stunned in an all-black gown and a hood at Saint Laurent’s Fall 2023 menswear show in Paris. Her gown took a page from Yves Saint Laurent’s iconic 1980s collections, adding a nostalgic flair to the chic look.
Updating a classic look, the gown sported a criss-cross neckline and a revealing open back, marrying old and new elegantly. She finished the look with golden bangles, giving a nod to the ’80s and tying the whole ensemble together.

In April 2023, Jenna Ortega took to Instagram to flaunt her Coachella outfit. Opting for a festival-ready look, she wore a sheer black top over a bralette and matched it with rugged frayed denim shorts. She rounded off everything with black trainers, crew socks, round sunglasses, and a bandana around her neck.
4. Tuxedo And Mini Dress
Jenna Ortega absolutely owned the red carpet at the Scream VI premiere in New York City. She stepped out in a Jean Paul Gaultier getup from the designer’s Fall/Winter 2022 Couture collection, complete with a tailored tuxedo jacket and a shirt dress that took a daring twist.
She added extra oomph with her black peep-toe heels and Tiffany & Co. jewels, including a standout diamond choker and a collection of rings that shone brightly.
5. Blouse and Skirt
Back in January 2022, Jenna Ortega graced Instagram with a snapshot of her stylish ensemble. She was decked out in a dark green collared shirt paired with a plaid skirt—a classic combo with a twist.
Her dark, wavy hair cascaded freely, a gorgeous contrast to the rich green of her shirt and the lively plaid of her skirt. She topped it off with a golden bangle bracelet that brought a pop of sparkle to her fashionable look.
6. Sexy gold gown
Jenna caught everyone’s attention at 2023’s Harper’s Bazaar Women of the Year Awards. She gave her familiar gothic chic style a break, opting for a brand-new look.
Jenna dazzled the crowd in a stunning gold Christian Dior outfit—a sheer, floor-length knitted gown paired with a mid-length, embroidered coat that flirted with the naked dressing trend.
7. Valentino dress
At Valentino’s SS23 runway show, Jenna Ortega stepped out in an audacious ensemble: a sheer black lace dress paired with sleek black trousers. She tipped her hat to the naked dress again—this time in gossamer lace with structured black trousers for a sleek, updated look.
Ortega paired the ensemble with simple undergarments, standout platform heels, and Bulgari jewels.
8. Blazer and Shorts
White was Jenna Ortega’s color of choice at the 2023 Finestkind premiere. She was spotted in a fresh-off-the-runway look from Adeam’s Spring/Summer 2024 line.
It featured a white lace corset blazer that also served as a floral mini-dress paired with white boy shorts and a bra. Strappy white platform heels finished the look, with her glam being equally awe-inspiring.
She chose white-painted nails, crystal-pointed earrings, a sparkly silver choker, nude lips, and rosy eyeshadow, creating a monochromatic theme.
9. Golden Globe Awards 2023
With a Golden Globe nomination for Best New Actress under her belt, Jenna Ortega stepped out in a Gucci creation from the fashion house’s Spring 2023 line, complete with pleated draping and tiered ruffles. The pinkish-brown gown stood out as a light departure from her typically darker wardrobe.
Jenna paired the gown with a retro beauty look courtesy of Vincent Oquendo and Tiffany & Co. jewelry, including 18-karat gold and diamond pieces.
10. Suit and Heels
In November 2022, Jenna Ortega took to Instagram to share her look: a three-piece suit with a burgundy checkered pattern that really turned heads. She wore a tailored blazer that hugged her curves, paired with smooth trousers and a vest in the same rich hue.
11. SAG Awards 2023
At the 2023 SAG Awards, Jenna Ortega showed up in a daring all-black gown by Versace. Her gown featured a fitted bodice and an unusual high-low hemline, tied together with a belt that sported the iconic Versace gold clasp.
She rounded off her outfit with elegant Tiffany & Co. pieces and matched them with statement black platform heels. Jenna went for a soft makeup look with peach highlights on her cheeks and lips and a bit of shimmer on her eyes.
12. Jeans and Coat
On her way to an SNL dinner party at Lattanzi Cucina in March 2023, Jenna Ortega swapped her typical Wednesday Addams look for a colorful, suit-inspired ensemble. The outfit featured a bright orange tuxedo vest layered over a crisp white button-up, set off by a moss green polka dot tie.
She rounded out her look with dark wash jeans and a black coat—smart choices for the cool weather.
