Jenna Ortega is taking her press tour for Netflix's new Addams family series, Wednesday, very seriously, especially when it comes to her outfits. A month after wearing a completely sheer black lace dress to Valentino's S/S 23 show, the Gen Z darling wore a similar, albeit even more daring, look for an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!. This time, though, her dress featured a sky-high slit unlike any we've seen before.
For the show, Ortega and her stylist Enrique Melendez chose a long-sleeve half–French lace, half-opaque dress from fashion favorite label Dion Lee and a pair of Christian Louboutin platforms. In addition to the see-through material, it featured cutouts around the ribs and up to the actress's hip on one side. Bold? Yes. Shockingly pretty? Also yes.
