Jenna Ortega pulled up to The Late Show with Stephen Colbert in what looked like a straight-up glass dress—because of course she did. Styled by the forever iconic Enrique Melendez, the dress came straight from the Oscar de la Renta Fall 2025 collection and had us all gasping.
Enrique posted the look on Instagram with the caption: “@jennaortega in a literal work of art by @oscardelarenta.” And yeah, he wasn’t lying. This wasn’t a look—it was a serve.
Glass Dress? Technically, No—But Still Iconic
Turns out, the dress isn’t actually made of glass but something even cooler. According to Oscar de la Renta’s official Instagram, it’s the Scarlet Hand-Dyed Plexi Tree Peony Cocktail Dress (say that five times fast).
The post described it as “a scarlet story” brought to life with laser-cut mosaic embroidery and appliqué tree peonies—basically, the kind of craftsmanship that makes fashion nerds weep.
Basically, it’s couture with main character energy. And honestly? We’re still zooming in on every angle.
The timing couldn’t have been more perfect either—with Death of a Unicorn on the promo trail, Jenna looked like a haunted princess who just stepped out of a cursed castle, in the best way possible.
Plexi, Pain, and Icon Behavior
Let’s be real—this wasn’t your average red carpet look. Jenna admitted that wearing it wasn’t exactly comfy, and that sitting down involved some very careful positioning. But did she complain? Nope. She rocked that plexi masterpiece like the fashion pro she is, fully committing to the moment with zero hesitation.
Jenna Ortega isn’t just wearing clothes—she’s delivering fashion history in real time. This look was art, attitude, and just the right amount of chaos.
Whether you’re calling it plexi couture or spooky glam, one thing’s for sure: she ate this look up and left zero crumbs.
