How To Copy Netflix’s Wednesday Addams’ Style

Known for her dark pigtails and black monochrome outfits, Wednesday Addams has been around for close to a century. Her slightly reimagined character features many of the same iconic aspects, but brings a new high-fashion touch to classic goth style. She’s allergic to color, so everything in her wardrobe is black with a few white accents to break up the monochrome color. Playing her character is Jenna Ortega, whose personal style is not unlike her character! An emphasis on darker hues and moody eye makeup, Ortega’s style is made up of many of the same aspects of Wednesday, although she isn’t always confined to dark, gothic fashion. The 20-year-old actress has made her mark on the dark and ghoulish genres of horror and thriller films, so this role is a perfect fit for her talents and resume. If you’d like to master her ghoulish makeup and hair, stay away from blush and go heavy-handed on the contour, especially shaping the cheekbones. A dark smokey eye and lots of mascara will accomplish her eye look, while a nude matte lipstick will tie it all together. And don’t forget the braids, of course. Wanna copy her look? Here’s how!
