Jenna Ortega made a striking arrival on Sunday on the red carpet at the 2023 SAG Awards in Los Angeles, channeling her Wednesday Addams character in a plunging black vintage Versace gown.
The dress was made of textured black leather and is from the brand’s fall 1994 collection. Her asymmetrical, strapless dress featured a thigh-high slit. She styled it with a simple black belt with a gold buckle around her waist.
For jewelry, Ortega opted for silver bangles, rings and a goth-inspired ball chain necklace. She also added on some open-toed platform pumps.
