Jenna Ortega attends the “Wednesday” Season 2 premiere in Paris, debuting a darkly romantic, Victoriana-infused look that felt like a (perfectly styled) gothic masterpiece.
Jenna Ortega delivered full gothic drama once again at the Wednesday Season 2 Paris premiere, and in a clever twist, a black dress was not required. The actress, who has become the modern high priestess of the macabre, embraced the theme in a way that felt both authentic and elevated.
The star wore a deep mauve Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood Fall 2025 dress, a look that masterfully blended historical Victoriana with the punk rebellion that defines the brand. The gown featured a stunning, beige corset-like panel at the bodice, which provided structure and a dramatic, cinched silhouette. Exaggerated ruffles cascaded down the front, from the plunging neckline to the skirt’s hem, creating a mesmerizingly textured, almost ghostly effect. This was a runway moment delivered with theatrical force.
Her styling amplified the mood. With tousled, raven-dark hair and smudged eyeliner, Ortega achieved a beautifully undone “undead-chic” vibe. The foggy, graveyard-set backdrop made it feel as though she had stepped straight out of Nevermore Academy and onto the fashion editorial of her dreams. For accessories, the choice was unapologetically on-theme: a Loree Rodkin black diamond cross pendant and a pair of towering Vivienne Westwood Elevated Ghillie platforms that grounded the ethereal dress with rebellious punk energy.
