Jenna Ortega Puts a Wednesday-Worthy Twist on the Met Gala 2023 Theme

by - June 12, 2024

 Jenna Ortega may be best known for playing Wednesday Addams on screen, but it seems the character’s inimitable fashion sense has made its way into her real-life wardrobe too. 


Case in point? Ortega’s goth-inflected look for tonight’s Met Gala. The high-fashion design not only nodded to Wednesday’s style codes with its schoolgirl bow detail at the neck, but also paid homage to a number of the design signatures of Karl Lagerfeld—whose work is being honored in this year’s exhibition, “Karl Lagerfeld: A Line of Beauty”—with its black and white palette and preponderance of gold chains and pearls.


“I’ve always respected goth culture,” Ortega told Vogue back in April. “I’ve always had a darker sense of humor, but I never felt like I was able to express that. Now I feel like I can embrace those qualities in myself.” Tonight, she embraced the dark side with majestic—and Met Gala-ready—results.
