Jenna Ortega Wears Controversial Gemstone Top at 2025 Emmys

At the 2025 Emmys, Jenna Ortega captivated the red carpet with a striking Givenchy ensemble from the fall/winter 2025 collection by Sarah Burton, featuring a unique top made entirely of oversized gemstones and pearls, resembling an intricate jeweled bib or chainmail. The top, which is nearly topless with strategically placed jewels, was paired with a custom long black skirt with a thigh-high slit, complemented by platform strappy sandals and a moody glam look including a plum lip and messy bun. While fans praised Ortega's bold and glamorous style, calling her a red carpet queen, some critics found the outfit overly flashy or lacking coverage. Ortega, 22, who starred in Netflix's Wednesday, was a presenter this year but not nominated, as the second season aired too late for consideration. The jeweled top had been previously worn by model Kaia Gerber in the Givenchy 2025 fall campaign, though Gerber styled it more casually with black trousers. Ortega's Emmys appearance marked her second year on the red carpet, following her nomination in 2024, and demonstrated her consistent fashion influence among her generation.
