Jenna Ortega brought Wednesday's gothic glamour to the 29th annual Screen Actors Guild Awards.
The young star walked the red carpet at the Fairmont Century Plaza in Los Angeles tonight, representing her role in Netflix's mega-hit series through her sleek, dark aesthetic. Her ensemble was comprised of a one-shouldered gown made of black leather fabric, featuring a plunging sweetheart neckline, a cinched waist, and a thigh-high slit. She topped off the look with Max platforms from Jimmy Choo.
She completed the look with black ankle-strap pumps and diamond jewelry by Tiffany & Co., including an elegant necklace set in gold and platinum. Her shoulder-length hair was styled in loose waves with fringe, and her glam look included graphic white eyeliner and a pinkish nude lip.

Ortega is nominated for Best Female Actor in a Comedy Series tonight, after receiving her first-ever SAG nomination for her starring role as Wednesday Addams in Netflix's Wednesday. She will also be one of the presenters at tonight's ceremony.
In a recent interview, the star opened up about Wednesday's runaway popularity and the way her character's style has inspired some fans.
"I feel like I'm truly blown away and amazed by anybody who supported the show, any amount of support that the show has been getting," she said. "But what gets me the most is seeing little girls who were not goth at all just like wake up the next day and have their parents posting photos of them with, like, their hair in braids wearing the only black shirt they could find and black lipstick. That brings me so much joy because I can't wait for these girls to get older and look back on their gothic stage. To have played a part in that is like a real honor for me."
