Jenna Ortega Recreates Carrie Bradshaw’s Iconic Newspaper Dress Moment
Jenna Ortega stuns in Carrie Bradshaw’s iconic Dior newspaper dress at her film premiere—reliving a legendary Sex and the City fashion moment.
Move over, Carrie Bradshaw—Jenna Ortega just stepped into fashion history. The actor made headlines (literally) at the Hurry Up Tomorrow premiere in New York, wearing the legendary newspaper-print Dior dress from John Galliano’s Fall 2000 collection—the same one Sarah Jessica Parker immortalized in Sex and the City.
Ortega kept the look timeless, styling the cowl-neck gown with delicate gold stilettos, minimalist jewelry, and her signature dark, gothic-tinged glam: sleek raven hair and smoldering kohl-lined eyes. She posed alongside co-stars The Weeknd and Barry Keoghan, but all eyes were on that dress.
Newspaper prints are having a major revival—from Emilia Wickstead’s The Wickstead Times runway to Stella McCartney’s The Stella Times and Bottega Veneta’s Spring 2024 show. Celebs like Emily Ratajkowski, Kendall Jenner, and even SJP herself have revisited Bradshaw’s eclectic style, but Ortega’s homage might just be the most striking yet.
For SATC fans, the dress carries heavy nostalgia—it debuted in Season 3 when Carrie confronted Natasha about her affair with Mr. Big. The apology crashed and burned, but the fashion? Eternal.
Would you trade $40,000 in shoes for this iconic piece? Because we just might.
