Jenna Ortega Stuns in Dior Haute Couture at the 81st Venice International Film Festival
Here are all the details of the Beetlejuice Beetlejuice star’s head-turning ensemble on the red carpet.
Jenna Ortega had everyone’s eyes on her as she walked the red carpet at the 81st Venice International Film Festival for the debut premiere of her latest movie Beetlejuice Beetlejuice alongside fellow cast members Winona Ryder, Monica Belluci, and Willem Dafoe.
No doubt taking inspiration from Lydia Deetz’ red wedding gown from the original 1988 horror comedy Beetlejuice, Ortega wore a beautiful Dior Haute Couture ensemble that required 600 hours of atelier time to finish. The floor-length custom Dior gown featured a stunning backless bodice and a flowing A-line pleated skirt all in Dior red tulle. The gown’s décolleté followed a heart-patterned cutout structure made with varying layers of red tulle which were then held by delicate spaghetti straps, leaving the back entirely open.
Completing the monochromatic silhouette, the gown’s skirt featured meticulously pleated layers of red tulle that formed a breezy see-through figure, and underneath, the actor wore mini red shorts to blend in with the skirt. Being that Ortega portrayed the teenage daughter of Winona Ryder’s character Lydia Deetz, the actor’s red carpet premiere look was a beautiful homage to Winona’s wardrobe from the original film.
Continuing the whole fiery ensemble, Ortega completed her red carpet premiere look with red Jimmy Choo shoes, as well as a smoky red eye makeup look and deep red lips to match. She then accessorised with silver jewellery as a sparkling addition to the look.
