"Although the Wednesday star has access to a multitude of major fashion houses (especially as a Dior ambassador), she keeps her appearances exciting by spotlighting up-and-coming and IYKYK names. With the help of her stylist Enrique Melendez, Ortega has repped Grace Ling, Dilara Findikoglu, and Bevza, among many others."
"At the Los Angeles event, Ortega walked the carpet in a champagne-hued slip dress that could double as boudoir attire. Veering away from traditional pristine awards show looks, her gown was also highly deconstructed. The silk number featured a thigh-high slit with raw edges, appearing as though it was ripped. Meanwhile, the sheer lace upper half, with its navel-deep plunging neckline, had holes throughout."
"Even the way the outfit was styled evoked a haphazard, intentionally distressed vibe. One sleeve, for example, dangled down her arm. Her necklaces were similarly in disarray. Apart from a long, black beaded chain that looped around her neck and down her back, two pearl-accented chain necklaces were skewed to one side."
Red carpets traditionally favor safe, glamorous looks from established luxury brands like Dior, Armani, and Prada. Jenna Ortega defies this convention by consistently wearing emerging and lesser-known designers through her stylist Enrique Melendez, including Grace Ling, Dilara Findikoglu, and Bevza. At the 2026 Actor Awards, she wore a Christian Cowan champagne slip dress featuring deconstructed elements: a thigh-high slit with raw edges, sheer lace with a deep neckline and holes, and intentionally distressed styling. She paired the dress with sheer gray thigh-high stockings and black peep-toe sandals, accessorizing with asymmetrically placed chain necklaces to enhance the haphazard aesthetic.
