Feeling the blues (in the best way possible), Jessica Chastain made sartorial magic on the red carpet of the 2013 BAFTA Awards on Sunday at the Royal Opera House in London, England.
The ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ star and Leading Actress nominee completely blew me away in her breathtaking sapphire gown by Roland Mouret.
Where to even begin? The colour was electric. The fit was impeccable. And the structured architecture of the asymmetrical bodice was fresh and altogether sublime.
Even in an evening where umbrellas proved to be the best (and most popular) accessory, Jessica shone brightly.
Complementary Harry Winston pendant earrings and a simple bracelet didn’t impede the dramatic effect of the gown.
Once again, Jessica’s side-swept, flame-red waves and matte crimson lip were picture perfect, especially with the blue.

it is simply electrique.le blue suits him perfectly and leaves a bit of comun because we have long been accustomed to the black white and red. I love the asymmetrical cut bustier that gives any look at all.
it is simply electric. most of the color chosen for this occasion out of the ordinary. we got used to seeing black or white or red. it innovates.
If there was on Oscar for ‘Best Leading Actress Awards Season Red Carpet Run’ (Now there’s an idea… Though they might have to give it a slightly flashier name), Jessica would totally win it. And deservedly so!
i think this is A TOTAL SNOOZE. HELLO 1992.COME ON people. she needs a new stylist! AND QUICK
Jewel tones are perfect for her! Love this!
Absolute perfection! There isn’t a word worthy enough to describe this amazing look. I call BDOTY!
I still can’t believe that this is the same girl who had more misses that hits in 2011, my how far she has come! So thrilled 😀
WOW! BDOTY contender.
Perfection! I am speechless!
Im floored on how amazing she looks!!
Even if the shape is familiar, the colour, the fabric and the fit add up to Jessica’s natural beauty. My favourite Bafta’s
God Damn Flawless!! Jessica Chastain blows our blues away in this striking royal blue figure hugging gown by Roland Mouret!! Love the side swept glossy waves and the red lip is so gorgeous!! Nothing to change right here, damn too hot!! BDOTY contender for Jessica Chastain!! Anne Hathaway, shame on you!!
Wow, the color is gorgeous, so it’s the dress, which fits her perfectly. Love the red lipstick and the hair. Perfect.
yay! i’m doing a jig right now! i am SO happy! color cut perfection! those tumbling waves act like an accessory so no wonder she didn’t add jewelry that would have probably messed with the overall effect. i love this woman!
Best use of colour
How perfect did she look? On top, she only arrived in london like an hour before the show. Girl needs no rest i swear.
OMG Stunnnnning!
Love love love everything about this look. She looks damn gorgeous in this. WOW
the color is everything. Best dressed for sure
This has to be the best that Jessica has looked this awards season. That color is beautiful on her.
Now this is THE fashion moment I’ve been waiting for from Jessica! Gorgeous!
I totally love this look from head to toe. It is perfection. One of my favorites of this year, alongside the red Armani Prive of Cate Blanchett and the Giles gown of Kerry Washington.
I feel like I’ve seen this dress a million times before. And I’m tired of her swept to the side hair style, she needs to do something new with her hair.
Oh that bracelet is to die for – Her dress is good – Her hair has looked better (on a number of events this week) – I am not floored, but I think she looks good – her choice of designers has proven to be quite eclectic, I have the hardest time predicting what she will be wearing on February 24th
Jaw dropping. This is how it is done. BDOTY!
Flawless!
In my top 3 best dressed of the night
OMGGGG!!! FINALLY!!! I WAS LOSING HOPE FOR THIS GAL, HER LOOKS FOR AWARD SEASON HAVE ALL BEEN SUPER DECE BUT FINALLY!! that color is effing fantastic!!
The colour is stunning, and the fit is fabulous, but somehow the fabric with that sheen feels a little awards show-y. She does always do her hair like that too. Still – a good look.
I’m completely blown away. Best she’s ever looked, if you ask me. I can’t find a single fault with this, and that’s very, very rare.
HOLY FASHION PERFECTION! I can only say “Yes, yes YES!” to this flawless look. After fit issues, color issues, everything being just a little off each time, I’m SO glad to see Jessica knock it out of the ballpark with this STUNNING look. The gown is absolute perfection–great fit, great sheen, amazing color. Her rich red hair is lovely (I would have tossed it over the OTHER shoulder, but oh well) and she is glowing. BDOTN (best dressed of the night) and a seriously major BDOTW contender. Really a great look.
Love the color, silhouette, fit, hair & makeup. H2T love!
Beautiful!
Love Love Love!!! Stunning! Yay!
The only thing wrong with this look is that this is the dress I wanted to see FC in. Superb in every other way.
I agree!
I came here to same say the same thing…this is what i imagined FC wearing when she first told us about her Oscar gowm…
Couldn’t agree more!
Wow, this is the best she’s looked in a long while. Finally a dress that fits her. Just stunning. I love her makeup as well.
Wow!! I’m speechless. This dress couldn’t be more beautiful. Love!!!!
Am I mistaken or this looks a lot like your Oscar’s future gown?
Anyway, great dress and great color on her. Love the lips, but her eyebrows seems a little faded? Or maybe it’s because of the flashes.
+1, the fit of her dress instantly reminded of FC’s gown for the Oscars.
Jessica looks good though, great fit and great colour.
Definitely one of the best dressed of the night and one of her best looks ever. Can’t see the shoes but there’s nothing to complain about here. She didn’t even need a clutch.
Gorgeous!!
Psst…note to Anne Hathaway: THIS is how you do awards ceremony fashion.
I think I like this better than ANYONE’s look from SAG or the Golden Globes. It’s striking, well-executed, and memorable.
Can’t wait to see what she wears to the Oscars.
But wait…I don’t see a clutch! What did it look like?
Gorgeous colour and structure, usually prefer hair pulled back with interesting structured necklines like this, but her red waves are so pretty and add so much charm to the look, it all works nicely for me, would like to see that clutch, I’m missing it here.
She looks breathtaking, I am in love. The colour is divine on her and the overall look is simply perfect. I think she is my best dressed of the event.
wait Jessica carried a clutch?!?!?! Pics or it didn’t happen X-P
Perfection. I just wish her hair was on the other side.
she looks fantastic, only wish she had her hair going down the other shoulder to show off the shoulder detail being hidden.
+1
She couldn’t be better! Best dressed till now.
She’s definitely a breath of fresh air! Everything about this look is spot on!
I am really tired of that hair. Please, more imagination!!!
She’s Jessica Chastain, not Rihanna. And she looks incredible!
stunning!! She looks really amazing in royal blue. Love this look so much.
She blew me away as well. This is just perfection.
I agree – perfection is the best word for this look. I cannot wait to see what she does at the Oscars this year, to top this!
She looks flawless!
I’m so pleased she learned from the poor fit of her SAG dress! This is exquisite, it all works.
+11111111
She look beyond amazing. THIS is her color. BDOTY possibly.
This is BDOTW worthy gorgeous. Love this look so much!! Proud of her. 😀 The color is heaven
