Jenna Ortega turned heads on the red carpet at the 77th Primetime Emmy Awards, held at the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles. The 22-year-old 'Wednesday' star delivered one of the night's most talked-about fashion moments with a bold interpretation of the naked-dressing trend.
Ortega wore a striking Givenchy by Sarah Burton ensemble featuring a top made entirely of multicoloured jewels and crystals in varying shapes and sizes, which covered both the front and back. She balanced the statement piece with a sleek black column skirt, complete with a thigh-high slit for added drama. The couture creation, which arrived in a coffin-shaped box, was described by fashion commentators as being constructed almost entirely from oversized jewels and destined to dominate social media feeds.

Jenna Ortega Channels Isabella Rossellini's Iconic Role
The look appeared to channel Isabella Rossellini's iconic role as Lisle von Rhuman in the 1992 cult-classic film 'Death Becomes Her,' where the character dons a similarly encrusted jewel top. The nod was fitting, especially with the story’s recent resurgence through its Broadway adaptation, which opened in 2024.
This is not the first time Jenna Ortega has adopted a methodical approach to dressing. She previously leaned into character-inspired style while promoting her Golden Globe–nominated performance as Wednesday Addams, later elevating the concept during the 2024 press tour for 'Beetlejuice Beetlejuice.' Alongside stylist Enrique Melendez, she showcased a series of ensembles that paid homage to the franchise's iconic characters and costumes.

Jenna Ortega's Fashion Statements
In August 2024, Jenna Ortega was spotted in New York wearing a Thom Browne plaid skirt and sweater reminiscent of Winona Ryder’s Lydia Deetz in 'Beetlejuice.' That same summer, she captivated fans at the Venice Film Festival in a dramatic red gown that many believed referenced Lydia's memorable red wedding dress. At the 81st Venice Film Festival, she once again dazzled in a Dior Haute Couture gown, accessorised with Dior Joaillerie pieces and a bold red beauty look—another style choice fans interpreted as a nod to her gothic inspirations.
With her jewel-encrusted Emmy Awards look, Jenna Ortega continued her streak of creative, cinematic fashion statements, blending high fashion with playful homage.
