Jenna Ortega looked incredible at the 75th Annual Primetime Emmy Awards, which were held at the Peacock Theater in Los Angeles on Monday, January 15th. The awards were initially scheduled for September 2023, but were postponed due to the writers’ and actors’ strikes. However, they were definitely worth the wait, as the red carpet was overflowing with glamorous looks from A-listers such as Jessica Chastain and Selena Gomez among so many others.
The 21-year-old Finestkind actress was nominated in the Outstanding Lead Actress In A Comedy Series category for her role as Wednesday Addams in Netflix’s Wednesday; and although she lost to Quinta Brunson for her role in Abbott Elementary, she was still a red carpet winner to us!
Jenna Ortega Wears Dior Haute Couture Gown To The 75th Emmys
Some fans speculated that Jenna would wear a gothic ensemble to honor her character Wednesday Addams – and because she rocks the goth trend so well – but they couldn’t have been more wrong, as she chose a stunning ethereal Dior Haute Couture dress instead.
The dress featured a sheer strapless bodice and a voluminous structured skirt, as well as intricate flower embroidery all over it. What a work of art! Jenna raved about her dress on the red carpet, reportedly telling E!: "It's such an art piece, it literally stands on its own. It's a perfect dress to commemorate a special night."
The Miller's Girl star accessorized with some matching sparkly Christian Louboutin pumps and some dazzling jewelry, which consisted of Rose Dior Couture earrings, a Gem Dior ring, a Dior Joaillerie bracelet, and a white gold and diamond necklace. Jenna’s makeup artist Melanie Inglessis reportedly used Dior Beauty eyeshadow to give her a lavender and pewter smoky eye, and her natural lips were achieved with the Dior Beauty Rouge Dior lipstick in Daisy Plum.
