Jenna Ortega is Hollywood’s new It-girl, thanks to her recent starring roles in Wednesday, X, and the Scream franchise – not to mention the fact that she’s a shining new fashion star, too. As demonstrated at the Golden Globes last week, where she wore an ethereal Gucci gown on the red carpet, the actor is willing to have fun with fashion and make a statement. Her latest fashion serve was at Saint Laurent’s autumn/winter 2023 menswear show in Paris on Tuesday. Shortly before taking in the new collection from the front row, Ortega posed in front of a giant gold “YSL” logo wearing a super sleek look.
For a few seasons now, Saint Laurent designer Anthony Vaccarello has been reviving the hooded gown in slinky, floor-length fabrications. His designs pay homage to the very same hooded, draped capuche dresses that Yves Saint Laurent himself introduced back in the mid 1980s (designers like Azzedine Alaïa also put forward the silhouette in the decade, as favoured by icons like Grace Jones). Ortega made it appropriate for a modern-day star, choosing an all-black sleeveless style with a criss-cross neckline and an open back, to make it feel sexy and party-ready. The two stacks of golden bangles around her wrists also pointed to the excess of the ’80s. (Other famous fans of the haute hoodie? Janelle Monáe, Paloma Elsesser, and Addison Rae.)
