Jenna Ortega suited up for her arrival at Netflix’s “Wednesday” ATAS event in Los Angeles yesterday.
The “Scream” star was clad in a black and brown pinstriped blazer with structured shoulders, shallow pockets and turtle shell buttons. The blazer was worn overtop a vibrant orange turtleneck and paired with a matching black and brown pinstriped mini skirt.
On the accessories front, Ortega wore all-gold jewelry including chunky rings and coordinating hoops. As for her hair, the “X” actress wore her brown tresses down in face-framing waves with fringy front-facing bangs.
Ortega flattered her feet with a shiny pair of gold “Amali Alta” platform heels from Christian Louboutin. The gilded pair was crafted of metallic uppers with peep-toes, thick platform soles and equally sturdy block heels standing at around 4 to 5 inches in height.
The platform shoe trend is one of the easiest styles to incorporate into any wardrobe. It is one of the most sought-after shoe styles, and can be found in various colorful iterations from top brands like Gucci, Valentino, and Burberry. Platforms are a regular occurrence in Rinna’s shoe round-up for their uncanny height-boosting abilities.
Ortega often elevates herself with height-boosting footwear on and off the red carpet. The “Wednesday” star can regularly be seen on public outings in platform-soled boots and pumps from a range of brands, including Jimmy Choo, Steve Madden and Valentino. Off-duty, she wears thick-soled Dr. Martens platform boots and Adidas sneakers. Ortega is also solidifying her presence in the shoe world, having been named Adidas’ new brand ambassador in Feb. 2023.
“Wednesday” is a spin-off of the classic “The Addams Family” that follows Wednesday Addams as she starts in a new school, the Nevermore Academy, and attempts to thwart a killing spree and solve the mystery that embroiled her parents 25 years ago. Jenna Ortega plays Wednesday in the Netflix show.
