Jenna Ortega again shows her stripes as a fan of the original bug juice.
The 21-year-old actress, who stars in the long-awaited sequel Beetlejuice, Beetlejuice as the daughter of Lydia Deetz, she gave her own preference to methodical dressing during the film’s press tour.
On Tuesday, August 27, Ortega arrived in Italy ahead of the 81st Venice International Film Festival in another look that resembled the original film. The star was seen wearing a black and white checked blazer over a red top, which she paired with a pleated khaki Sans Faff mini skirt. She accessorized with a large black shoulder bag from Tod’s, maroon Jimmy Choo loafers, short socks and Garrett Leight sunglasses.
As fans of the original bug juice you could say, Ortega’s look draws inspiration from Alec Baldwin’s role as Adam Maitland in the 1988 film. As Adam, Baldwin wears a black and white checkered shirt with a red T-shirt underneath, as well as khaki pants.

Last week, Ortega paid tribute to Winona Ryder’s character Lydia Deetz in the original film. While out and about in New York City on August 19, the actress wore a Thom Browne look that consisted of a custom-emblazoned sweater, plaid skirt, and loungewear — a near-exact replica of Ryder’s ensemble in Beetlejuice’the iconic final scene.
