Wednesday Addams is all suited up. Friday night, Jenna Ortega headed to one of Los Angeles’s oldest cemeteries, Hollywood Forever, for Netflix’s Wednesday Emmys FYSEE event. The storied location made for an appropriately gothic evening, but for the occasion, the star showed us just how her titular character might experiment with traditional tailoring. (TLDR: it’s anything but traditional.)

Walking the black carpet, the actor was photographed in a light-grey suit from Seán McGirr’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection for Alexander McQueen. Composed of a cropped jacket and long low-rise trousers, the set balanced pristine craftsmanship with edgy, raw details. Embracing the off-kilter, daring energy of the look, Ortega wore the top unbuttoned—and without a shirt underneath. Instead, stylist Enrique Melendez pulled a white laced harness from the same McQueen collection.

The Wedsnesday star’s long dark hair, styled by Cesar Deleon Ramirez, was left down. For glam, makeup artist Lilly Keys kept things subtle, with bronzed cheekbones and mauve lips complementing her freshly un-bleached brows.

“In a way, you become much more creative,” Ortega said on stage during the event, speaking on becoming an executive producer for the second season of Wednesday. “As an actor, yes you’re involved in the story and you want to check the arcs and the beats, but you’re still primarily focused on your bit and your story and what your job and mission is in the scene. Whereas, as a producer, it’s just given me a much greater understanding of all of the things that are coming into play to make a scene.”
