Wednesday Addams’ best outfits (and how to recreate them from the high street)

Let's be real, we're all in love with Jenna Ortega...

Wednesday Addams Outfits - heat

If you haven't binged Wednesday on Netflix yet, where have you been? Fueling our dark and gothic dreams, we can't get enough of the Tim Burton show, released in 2022 to critical acclaim. Welcome spooky friends to our guide to the best Wednesday Addams outfits and how to shop the looks.

The star, Jenna Ortega, is totally our current girl crush, especially with her disconcerting glares and ghastly costumes (in a good way, we might add). The grunge style is so back and we're not mad about it.

The best of Wednesday's looks, at a glance...

Editor's choice: ASOS DESIGN Long Sleeve Striped T-Shirt in Navy, £14 on ASOS

Best original looking Wednesday dress: Kate Black Wednesday Collared Halloween Swing Dress, £16 on MissyEmpire

Best Wednesday jumper: Boohoo Striped Jumper, £17.60 on Boohoo

The Netflix show has upped everything classic about Wednesday's style into an easily adaptable modern take on the gothic queen. With black being the wardrobe of our dreams, it's easily dressed up and down, cutesy with lace or sultry with satin - there is no better colour to dwell in the winter than black.

Not for the faint-hearted, here are our top Wednesday Addams outfits on the high street below.
