The Deeper Meaning Behind Jenna Ortega's Costumes on Netflix's "Wednesday"

PS: Were there certain aspects of the costume you knew screamed Wednesday Addams?

MS: Well definitely, for what we did, it's the classic black-and-white print dress with the white collar with the pigtails, and [it's] very conventional in its look. So initially, when you see that first image of her in Nancy Reagan [High School], you know who that is.

And it's that connection from the Christina [Ricci] Wednesday to the Jenna [Ortega] Wednesday, because you just see that image of her walking down the corridor. So it's basically using those similar prints that they used before but bringing it into more of a modern world.
