Ever since the smashing success of Tim Burton’s Wednesday series, which was a hit on both Netflix and social media, the chic gothic look that Wednesday’s character and Jenna Ortega herself have been sporting in real life for the past few months has been sweeping the planet conquered. This trend even has a name: Wednesdaycore. But it seems that the eldest of the Adams family’s interpreter is already ready to turn the fashion page. The actress has just radically changed her style.
Jenna Ortega says goodbye to the Wednesday look
Forget Wednesday’s schoolgirl look. As a guest on Jimmy Fallon’s American talk show The Tonight Show this Friday, December 17, Jenna surprised – and seduced – Ortega by appearing in a more grown-up look that’s more appropriate for her age. The 20-year-old actress first ditched her long hair and with it her character’s two small braids for a trendier haircut. So she succumbed to the shaggy bob with a very punk effect. An unstructured cut with longer fluffy bangs that suits her perfectly!
Jenna Ortega also showed off a much sexier style of dress. The scream star turned heads in a sheer black dress from Dolce & Gabbana’s Spring ’23 collection, which was accessorized with a vintage metal corset from the Italian house. A nude dress, under which the actress had slipped only a black bra and boxer shorts. To complete her outfit, Jenna Ortega had platform pumps and dizzying heels by Aminah Abdul Jillil at her feet. This look, put together by her stylist Enrique Menendez, goes hand-in-hand with the actress’ recent style switch, who wants to be more mature. But small touches always evoke the Wednesday aesthetic: The outfit’s white collar and tie are a nice nod to the character. And Jenna Ortega stays true to the black.
