Jenna Ortega continues to channel the spirit of Wednesday Addams as she promotes Wednesday season 2—this time with a daring twist on footwear that perfectly complements her gothic glam aesthetic.
Spotted in Midtown Manhattan on August 4 en route to Late Night With Seth Meyers, Ortega wore a deconstructed satin dress by Elena Velez. The ensemble featured corsetry details, uneven straps, and a dramatic thigh-high slit—an artful nod to chaos and controlled disarray. Styled by Enrique Melendez, the look struck a balance between elegance and edge.
But it was Ortega’s footwear that truly stood out: a pair of hybrid Black Suede Studio heels that looked as if they were stitched together from two different shoes. Part mesh flat, part strappy stiletto, the asymmetrical design added a touch of theatrical rebellion to the outfit. A fashion-forward “Frankenshoe,” if you will—one that Wednesday herself might not smile at, but would surely smirk in approval of.
Whether on the red carpet or the late-night circuit, Ortega’s commitment to pushing the gothic envelope continues to impress—with looks that feel equal parts couture and creepy.
