Jenna Ortega Channels Refined Gothic Glam in Ann Demeulemeester at Wednesday Season 2 Premiere

Jenna Ortega continues her reign as the queen of gothic chic, this time in a midnight blue Ann Demeulemeester gown for the Wednesday Season 2 premiere at the Paris Theater in New York.

Swapping out the more theatrical latex and snakeskin looks from earlier press events, Ortega opted for something more refined—yet still deeply rooted in the Addams family aesthetic. The Fall 2025 gown featured leather ruffled appliqués that added texture and intrigue without crossing into costume territory.

The rich navy hue offered a subtle break from her usual all-black wardrobe, but kept the tone dark and moody. It was a quieter kind of drama—modern, elegant, and entirely in character.

Finishing the look: lace-up thigh-high leather boots by Ann Demeulemeester, silver jewelry by Kinraden, tousled hair, and a smoky eye that tied it all together.

While some critics have called earlier character-inspired outfits a bit too on-the-nose, Ortega’s consistent delivery of elevated, story-driven fashion proves she understands the assignment—and how to make it her own.
