Jenna Ortega Brings Moody Romance to the Annual Actors Award Red Carpet in Lace Trimmed Look

Jenna Ortega delivered a dramatic fashion moment on the red carpet at the 32nd Annual Actors Awards on Sunday, March 1, in Los Angeles.

The actress, 23, leaned fully into her signature dark-romantic aesthetic, opting for a champagne toned satin slip gown with deconstructed lace detailing.

The dress featured a plunging neckline framed with intricate lace appliqué, giving the otherwise fluid silhouette a delicate, lingerie inspired edge. Subtle distressed elements along the bodice and skirt added texture and a slightly undone feel, balancing softness with attitude. A thigh-high slit revealed sheer gray stockings paired with black platform heels, a rather unexpected styling choice that reinforced Ortega’s reputation for pushing red carpet boundaries.

She accessorized with a slim black choker and a long, delicate body chain that draped down the front, adding dimension without overwhelming the look. Her dark hair was styled in side-parted waves that sat over one shoulder, while her makeup stayed true to her moody glam signature.

Ortega, who rose to international fame through Netflix’s Wednesday series and continues to build an impressive film résumé, has become a consistent standout during awards season.
