Jessica Chastain looked regal as she took to the red carpet for the premiere of ‘Madagascar 3: Europe’s Most Wanted’ premiere during the 2012 Cannes Film Festival this evening.
The red-haired beauty donned a Armani Privé strapless gown.
I love the beaded details on the bodice and the sweetheart neckline.
Her flowing gown was styled with Chopard earrings and metallic gold Jimmy Choo ‘Greta’ platform sandals.
As we know, Veronica Lake inspired-waves have been the hair trend for Cannes, but this is the best interpretation of the look yet.
That red lippie is to die for.
10 out of 10 for Jessica on this occasion.

I serious shouted out “Yes, Yes, Yes!” when I saw this look and fist-pumped the heavens! OK, now my BDOTD is a three way tie–Fan, Naomi, and Jessica. I LOVE this look–finally she gets it so right in a gown…this is heavenly and 10 out of 10 from me. Her hair looks so gorgeous–totally agree that it is the best of the Veronica Lake waves so far! Those delicate earrings…the bold red lip…breathtaking!
She looks super glamorous. And I love her earrings.
It´s a bit too bridal for my liking but the gown fits her well, and I love her hair (!!) – so pretty, it´s the 1st thing I´ve noticed. A pretty silver embellished clutch is needed to complete the look.
…her gold sandals aren´t visible but I think of silver here.
…or white gold

I was wowed only once from Jessica and that was her Oscars look. Now I can truly say that this is the second time. She looks perfect. I really can’t find a single flaw. Definitely 10 out of 10.
I agree that she looks gorgeous, btu I still wish that she would change stylists. I feel liek this colour should never have been chosen for her, and she is ridiculously hit & mis, even hair & makeup wise. That being said, she looks stunning, but a clutch, ring and maybe a bracelet would have elevated the look for me.
She looks amazing!
I was watching her on Le Grand Journal an hour ago, in this dress. It’s even more extraodinary in live, on tv.
All she needs is a veil and she’s ready to walk down the aisle. She looks gorgeous but this is too bridal for me.
i just adore this look by jessica…
for the zoom in pic of her face which shoes her head to toe perfect luk
its simply the flawless look…
thax FC
she has finally wowed me
She is such a classic beauty. And she also works hard & makes great movies. I adore her!
OMG, perfection! Wow!
She nailed it. Cannes really is the mother of all red carpet events. Why couldn’t she wear something similar to the oscars! Just love the flowy gown, the hair, the makeup. It’s all amazing
HOLY MOTHER OF GOD! What a day of great fashion!! I almost lost my jaw reading these amazing posts. Imagine how you’re feeling right now, FC…
It is fair to say that jessica has the most gorgeous face in Hollywood. She has brought glamor to the industry and I like her for that. What a phenomenal look.
I was surprised to see that she didn’t change up when she attended ‘Le Grand Journal’ tv show, she was still wearing the same gown. Usually all the celebrities who come to the show wear something less glam.
I love this look!
Oh my heavens! I love her make up and hair. Flawless!
She looks amazing–agree the silver clutch suggestion would take it to total perfection.
hair, make-up and earrings are perfect the rest is a snooze fest.
Had to laugh. No mention of her failure to carry clutch? She must really look good, lol, and she does.
I gasped and said “Yes!”. I don’t think I’ve ever seen her look lovelier.
Stunning!
Her best ever, her amazing beauty really shines through finally – simple but absolutely perfect!
It is really nice – this dress isn’t anything special – Armani dies it better than say Carlis Miele – but Carlos Miele would’ve done something close to it – hair and make-up are however exceptional
the best she’s ever looked, though I would have preferred another color for the dress.
WOW! Fantastic!
I totally did a fist pump when I saw this!! The Fashion Gods decided to pay special attention to Miss Chastain today! This is definitely one of her best and for me this look is up there with her McQueen Oscars look. We can really see her natural beauty, she is a vision!! I am so excited that she is coming into her full style potential!
