Earlier in the day, Ortega attended a photo shoot for the film, where she wore a custom-made burgundy Paul Smith suit that gave a nod to Michael Keaton’s wedding day look in the OG film. She paired the double-breasted suit with a necklace and ring.

Ortega and her stylist Enrique Melendez created striking looks inspired by the original film during the press tour.

On August 19, the actress stepped out in New York in an outfit that paid homage to the final look Ryder wore in the 1988 film.

For the nearly identical fit, Melendez collaborated with Thom Browne, who customized one of their sweaters with an emblem similar to the one on Ryder’s blazer in the final scene, and Ozias, who created her handbag for the Recently Deceased. Her rings included a Suzanne Kalan Golden Milli Stacker Diamond Eternity Band and a Rainbow K Ring Empress Sapphires.

“As previously stated, Winona Ryder/Lydia Deetz are The BluePrint,” the stylist shared on Instagram.

Earlier this month, the Wednesday star was in Mexico City to promote the sequel. Orgeta wore a custom-made Lurline gown with the shrunken head on the bodice. She also wore an archive Vivienne Westwood dress that Melendez said “really exists in the world of Tim Burton.”

Ryder previously appeared promoting the upcoming film on August 17, making a statement in a black Elena Dawson dress featuring a stand-up collar plus contrasting white buttons along the top and a pleated skirt.

She paired the gothic look, styled by Erica Cloud, with a textured ponytail created by hairstylist Ben Skervin and dramatic eyeliner from makeup artist Francelle Daly.

Of Ryder’s impact, Ortega continued: “She made me feel really, really beautiful and special.”
