Jenna Ortega Puts a Disco Spin on the Skirt Suit in Versace at ‘SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert’

Jenna Ortega lit up the red carpet at last night’s “SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert.” The actress wore a reflective look from Versace for the occasion.

Ortega stepped out in a gold disco ball-inspired corset from the fashion house’s spring 2025 collection. The “Wednesday” and “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” star wore the sculptural piece with the brown suede skirt it was shown with on the runway. Ortega forwent the red belt Donatella Versace styled it with and instead paired the look with a suede coat, gold strappy sandal heels, and matching minimal jewelry by Hearts On Fire.

When Versace presented her spring 2025 collection in September, which recalled Donatella Versace’s shiny spring 1997 Versus collection that was shown in New York a year before Gianni Versace’s death, she touted it as a means to spark joy. “I feel it’s fashion’s responsibility to do a little bit to bring people’s spirits up,” she told WWD, adding of the 1997 collection that inspired it: “It was freedom, happiness, not too much thinking. Fashion can be something intellectual, it can do that, but we also need positivity.”

Ortega’s neutral suede skirt suit and gold corset is a stylistic pivot for the actress who has frequently favored tailored wear in somber and rich hues. Last month she put a Gothic spin on the skirt suit at Dior’s spring 2025 couture show, while wearing a monochromatic black ensemble consisting of a sleeveless blazer with a cinched waist, leather opera gloves, shorts, and sheer tights.

The actress, who embraced method dressing throughout her “Beetlejuice Beetlejuice” press tour, has stepped out in custom and archival looks by Vivienne Westwood, Thom Browne and Dolce & Gabbana over the past year. For her press tour behind the sequel, Ortega frequently opted for black and white looks, skirt suits, power suits, and sculptural gowns that all played on her character in the film.

Ortega was joined on the red carpet for “SNL 50: The Homecoming Concert” by a bevy of stars including Miley Cyrus, Maya Rudolph, Amy Poehler, Tina Fey, Leslie Jones, Sandra Oh, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bowen Yang, Whoopi Goldberg, Chloe Fineman, Pete Davidson, Ayo Edebiri, Anya Taylor-Joy, Natasha Lyonne, Emily Ratajkowski, Alix Earle and more.

The concert, which took place ahead of tomorrow night’s “SNL50: The Anniversary Special,” featured performances from Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, Bad Bunny, The Roots, Nirvana, Post Malone, Arcade Fire, Backstreet Boys, Bonnie Raitt, Brandi Carlile, Chris Martin, Robyn and David Byrne.
