We know Ortega loves a frankenshoe. (Just yesterday, she wore a mesh-stiletto hybrid from Black Suede Studio). It was in her choice of footwear that she deviated from what could otherwise have been among the more classic red carpet looks of the promo tour so far; she wore a pair of witchy, patent leather lace-up boots, with a square toe and eyelets laced up above the knee. The magic of mall goth, sexed up.

Accessories and footwear have been a keen detail of Ortega and Melendez’s work together. Earlier in the day, Ortega gave us a modern update to Christian Dior’s New Look era in a Willy Chavarria spring 2026 skirt suit and a wide-brimmed, sleek peaked hat with the viral Christian Louboutin pointe shoes. Another look saw her accessorize her Elena Velez dress with skin-toned mesh shoes and the debut of a one-of-a-kind Himalayan croc Aupen bag.
Wednesday season two drops this week, but none of us are ready to say goodbye to Jenna Ortega’s gothic sartorial symphony yet.
