Jenna Ortega has catapulted to a whole other level of fame since starring as Wednesday Addams in the new Tim Burton-directed Netflix series Wednesday. The show became a fan-favorite overnight and Wednesday-inspired fashion and beauty trends have saturated Instagram and TikTok feeds ever since. Viewers are replicating Ortega’s long double-braided hair, plum lips, and dark academia style aesthetic — and Ortega herself is leading the Wednesday-core pack.
The actress has been known to take goth glam style cues from her iconic character with the help of her stylist Enrique Melendez and that edgy fashion sense is the perfect match to her ever-expanding filmography, which includes cult-beloved horror flicks like X and Scream 6.
After a record-breaking debut, Netflix just announced that it would be renewing Wednesday for a second season. Ortega also scored a Golden Globe nomination for her portrayal of Wednesday Addams, and is already channeling her on-screen character on the red carpet circuit. Just over the weekend, she wore a school girl-inspired Thom Browne ensemble at the Netflix Golden Globe and Critics Choice Nominee Toast.
As we wait to see what she wears for the big red carpet at the Golden Globes on Tuesday, GRAZIA USA has rounded up Jenna Ortega’s best Wednesday-inspired looks so far.
