Jenna Ortega's Gothic-Glam Givenchy References an "Integral Part" of Her 'Wednesday' Season 2 Style Journey
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. No matter which project she's promoting, Jenna Ortega's style always leans grungy yet glam. But nothing awakens the 22-year-old's inner goth quite like Netflix's Wednesday. Season 2 of the Addams Family spinoff drops on August 6, meaning Ortega is back in method dressing mode. On the first day of Ortega's Wednesday press tour, Ortega channeled her character's all-black attire in fresh-off-the-runway Givenchy Fall 2025. She and stylist Enrique Melendez sourced Look 32 from Sarah Burton debut collection as Givenchy's creative director before anyone else. "Every other week since it showed in March, I asked team Givenchy if it had been worn in a non-editorial placement," Melendez told me over email. "Luckily, by the time our fitting for the Wednesday Season 2 press tour came along, it hadn't been worn." Complete with a leather balconette bra and matching gloves which stretched beyond her shoulders, "the look played an integral part in styling this tour," Melendez says. As seen on the catwalk, each puff sleeve was ultra-padded, giving them a balloon-like blow out. For extra shine, she layered chain link cuffs on her wrists, also from Burton's Givenchy. Just like the model, Ortega juxtaposed the voluminous bodice with a super-sleek pencil skirt, hemmed with raw wool edges. The midi stopped above her calves to reveal her sky-high platform pumps from Jimmy Choo. During the Fall 2025 show, the model kept the grunge theme going with patent leather ankle boots. By choosing Jimmy Choos, Ortega gave the avant-garde set a classic finish. On the Wednesday Season 1 press tour, Melendez dressed Ortega in one noir number after another, "but you can only do so much [black] with out being too predictable and monotonous," the stylist says. To maintain the shock factor this time around, he "played around with sub-categories, such as shape and fabrication of a look," as evidenced by this Givenchy get-up. In the five short months since Givenchy Fall 2025 premiered, everyone from Kaia Gerber and Anne Hathaway to Tracee Ellis Ross and Elle Fanning has gotten their hands on the unreleased designs. Hathaway, for one, secured nine Burton looks for her Vogue August 2025 feature. On the cover, The Devil Wears Prada 2 star turned heads in Look 41, a white, high-neck number covered in florals from head to toe. Most recently, on July 25, Fanning attended Comic Con in a cutout-heavy suit set from Givenchy Spring 2026, which will debut during Paris Fashion Week in October. Even her lime green pumps are from the upcoming collection. A round of applause for Fanning, and her stylist, Samantha McMillen. Just two years into Burton's takeover, Givenchy's new group of It girls is already star-studded, with Ortega leading the charge. This look might've earned her an invite to the Spring 2026 show in October, so stay tuned. Solve the daily Crossword

Jenna Ortega's Beach Outfit Swaps Swim Trends for an Anti-Summer Leather Trench
When you buy through links on our articles, Future and its syndication partners may earn a commission. Usually by August, I've seen every swimwear trend of the season. This summer brought back Burberry bikinis, full-coverage bottoms, and Pucci print suits. But on August 13, a trench coat-clad Jenna Ortega proved I actually haven't covered it all. Though Season 2 of Wednesday dropped on Netflix last week, the show's press tour is still going strong. Most recently, the star-studded cast jetted to Australia in kooky, Addams Family-core attire. Without breaking her method dressing streak, Ortega went straight from the airport to Bondi Beach—in the same anti-summer set, no less. If you thought she'd swim in an all-black bikini—perhaps to channel her gothic character—think again. Ortega didn't style swimwear at all: just a leather trench coat tied over a satin slip dress. The 22-year-old also dipped her feet in the ocean with knee-high Dior D-Major Boots in tow. Don't worry, she went barefoot as to not damage the $2,150 Cruise 2025 shoes. Wednesday may be morbid, but she's not a Dior destroyer. View Deal View Deal As evidenced by her weeks-long Wednesday promo, Ortega will never turn down an outfit change. Last week in New York City, she styled a Willy Chavarria skirt suit and an Elena Velez dress within hours of each other, swapping her statement hat for her $100,000 Aupen bag. In Australia, however, the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice star wore the same swimwear substitutes at the airport. Outside her gate, she was papped in the aforementioned leather trench. Once again, the waist strap was tied to cover a black graphic tee underneath. By pairing it with the same moto boots, Ortega's jacket felt extra autumnal. Her studded carry-on tote nearly blended into its patent leather exterior. Oval-shaped sunglasses finished Ortega's airport 'fit in true Wednesday form. Sure, the forecast may call for itty-bitty shorts and sundresses, but according to Ortega, trench coat season came early.

It's Showtime! Jenna Ortega Tries a Twist on Beetlejuice Stripes
The world promotional tour for Netflix's second season of Wednesday has seen Jenna Ortega and stylist Enrique Melendez delight in a suite of gothic, glamorous fashion: a sea witchy Vivienne Westwood corset dress, a ruffled, backless black Ann Demeulemeester slip dress, super sharp tailoring via Willy Chavarria, and a a reptilian skin-like Ashi Studio gown, to name a few. Heading all the way to Australia, there was still plenty to pull from: and the goth life stops for nothing and no one—case in point, Ortega's paddle in the surf at Bondi Beach in a Matrix-esque leather trench, combat boots in hand. Her latest look is less Wednesday Addams, more Beetlejuice (Beetlejuice! Beetlejuice!). Photographed at a fan event on Cockatoo Island in Sydney, Australia, Ortega wore a leather, pumpkin orange and black striped Fendi dress.
