Christina Ricci was the epitome of elegance as she arrived to the Kate Spade presentation at New York Fashion Week on Friday.
The 43-year-old actress paired her black and white maxi dress with a black Kate Spade leather purse.
She kept her signature chesnut-hued locks loose around her shoulders, with a soft low key makeup look.
Christina’s other accessories included a gold necklace on a long, thin chain, a black manicure and a gold ring.
Keeping her shoes simple due to the length of her dress, the Wednesday star opted for a classic black, open-toed heel.

The brunette beauty – who recently admitted that being a child star made her ‘obnoxious‘ – hasn’t been able to promote any acting projects recently due to the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike.
However, she did appear in Yellowjackets season two — and the good news for the star is that the show was already renewed for a third season before season two even dropped on Showtime.
Best known for originating the role of the OG goth girl Wednesday Addams in the 1991 classic The Addams Family, Christina returned to Tim Burton’s dark world in the hit Netflix series Wednesday, albeit in a teacher role this time around.
Sadly, the actress has dealt with more drama offscreen recently, with her ex-husband James Heerdegen refusing to let her take their son Frederick out on a mother son outing in Manhattan (however, Christina took her son anyway.)
The couple were married from 2013 to 2020 — however, things didn’t end so amicably, with the California born starlet filing a restraining order against James for ‘severe physical and emotional abuse,’ which he denied.
In spite of the strain, the Casper star found love again in 2021 with Mark Hampton, a hairstylist.
The pair tied the knot in October of that year, two months after Christina announced that she was pregnant with her second child.
The actress’s only daughter, Cleopatra, was born in December 2021.
Relationship strife aside, the mother of two told Entertainment Tonight that she’d be game to return to the second season of Wednesday, saying, ‘I mean on my end, the door is open.’

In a hilarious turn of events, Christina revealed to InStyle during the Kate Spade event that her son Frederick actually wanted to follow in her footsteps…in the most unique way.
The Sleepy Hollow star revealed that he wanted to be a ‘male Wednesday.’
This declaration from the actress’s mini-me came after he watched Wednesday on Netflix twice.
‘My 9-year-old, after watching the entire series twice, asked me how he could style himself to be a male Wednesday, and then begged me to dye his hair black for six months,’ the petite beauty recounted with amusement.
