Jenna Ortega's Sultry Nod to 'Wednesday Addams' at the 2023 SAG Awards
Jenna Ortega, the name that's been on everyone’s lips and streaming queues, made a riveting appearance at the 2023 SAG Awards, in a gown that whispered Wednesday Addams, yet screamed Versace.
Vintage Versace with a Splash of Addams!
Rocking the red carpet, Jenna showed up in a tantalizing black vintage Versace, straight from the brand’s '94 fall collection. With an asymmetrical strapless look and a thigh-high slit that could make anyone do a double take, she paired it with a simple black belt, adding an unexpected golden dazzle to the all-black ensemble. 'As reported by' WWD, the gown was made of textured black leather, adding a certain edge to the dazzling actress's attire.
From "Wednesday" to the Weekend: Ortega's Rising Stardom
For her accessorizing game, Ortega went all out - silver bangles, rings, and a goth-inspired necklace. But what truly turned heads was her shaggy, layered hair and that messy fringe, making her unmistakably reminiscent of her character from Netflix’s hit series, “Wednesday”.
Speaking of which, Jenna’s portrayal of the Addams Family's quirky daughter shot her to fame. As of now, “Wednesday” is hot on the heels of “Stranger Things” as Netflix’s second most-watched show. If that's not saying something about her portrayal, her first SAG Award nomination for Outstanding Female Actor in a Comedy Series surely does. With fellow nominees like Christina Applegate and Jean Smart, Ortega's in illustrious company.
