Jenna Ortega might have single-handedly brought back goth chic as the color-allergic Wednesday from Netflix’s hit series, but the actor’s Golden Globes red carpet debut took a different approach. According to the first-time nominee’s stylist, Enrique Melendez, Ortega’s 2023 Golden Globes dress was intentionally much more Jenna than Wednesday — and it’s safe to say Wednesday would have *hated* it.

Ortega, who’s nominated in the Best Actress in a Music or Comedy TV Series category this year, swapped out Wednesday’s signature black for a monochromatic sheer tan Gucci dress that could only be described as regal.

The Disney alum completely left Wednesday’s aesthetic in the dust, but she paid homage to her character with layers of Tiffany serpentine silver statement jewelry, which she paired with a smokey makeup look and dramatic winged black eyeliner.

Swapping out her character’s signature gothcore lewk, Ortega’s Gucci Golden Globes dress featured flowing trumpet chiffon sleeves with pleats and a layered skirt that flowed behind her.

Ortega paired her Gucci gown with her freshly chopped brown-red lob, which she switched from punk to Jackie O by styling it flipped out with soft curtain bangs for the Golden Globes.

Ortega — who is also presenting during the Golden Globes — might not have had Thing by her side, but she attended with Wednesday co-star Percy Hynes White, with whom she’s currently filming rom-com Winter Spring Summer or Fall.

Ortega’s Golden Globes style transformation might make Wednesday’s “skin peel,” but she was definitely a leading lady on the red carpet.
