Jenna Ortega wore a Jean Paul Gaultier tuxedo dress to the “Scream VI” premiere in New York City on Monday.
The dress, from the brand’s fall 2022 Couture collection, had a deconstructed look, with an off-the-shoulder black blazer with sharp lapels and an oversize, strapless white button-up with two large shirt pockets adorning her chest. WWD characterized the collection, which was designed by Olivier Rousteing, the then-guest couturier at Jean Paul Gaultier, as accurately “capturing the sense of fun and irreverence of the founder.”

“Scream 6” is the latest installment in the “Scream” horror franchise, directed by Matt Bettinelli-Olpin and Tyler Gillett of Radio Silence.
