Red Carpet Fashion Awards

Jessica Chastain In Roland Mouret - 2013 BAFTA AwardsFeeling 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.

Jessica Chastain In Hervé L Leroux - The Tonight Show With Jay Leno

On Monday night, Jessica Chastain made a guest appearance on ‘The Tonight Show With Jay Leno’ after attending the Academy Awards nominees luncheon and prior to her hitting the red carpet at the Hollywood Reporter Nominees’ Night 2013.

The busy ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ actress showed off her enviable figure wearing a Hervé L. Leroux dress.

Her chocolate-brown dress, with a scoop neckline and flounce hemline, was styled with nude Louboutin pointed-toe pumps.

A wavy hairstyle and a pink lip colour completed her look.

While I love this look, especially as brown can be tricky to pull off, I still think her Erdem dress is her best look so far this week.

Jessica Chastain In Givenchy - The Hollywood Reporter Nominees' Night 2013

Jessica Chastain changed into a second look for The Hollywood Reporter Nominees’ Night 2013 celebrating the 85th Annual Academy Award Nominees, held at Spago in Beverly Hills, California yesterday evening.

The actress wore a Givenchy Resort 2012 dress.

Her textured sateen v-neck sleeveless dress, with a draped overlay at the bodice and a sculptural peplum waist, was styled with the same Christian Louboutin nude pumps she wore to the luncheon early in the day.

Kohl-rimmed eyes and pink lips provided the finishing touches.

With so many stars rushing to wear the latest Pre-Fall 2013 look, it’s refreshing to see Jessica wear a look from a previous season.

In saying that, you may remember that this look was also previously worn over a year ago by Ashley Greene and Kim Kardashian.

Jessica Chastain Erdem

Jessica Chastain was no wallflower when she took to the red carpet at the 85th Academy Awards Nominations Luncheon on Monday, held at The Beverly Hilton in California.

The ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ actress plucked out a vibrant sheath dress from Erdem’s Resort 2013 offering.

With its simple silhouette, the main impact of this midnight navy design was the intricate texture of the bright rose and dusty blue floral embroidery and the sheer lace sleeves.

Luncheon-like and lady-like, the look was finished with a pair of nude, pointy Christian Louboutins that faded into the background—not nearly as bold as the model’s shoe.

Jessica wore her flame-red locks long and curled, and she matched a pink lippie to those petals on her dress.

She’s not the only star who has lately been channeling the flower power of Erdem. Anne Hathaway recently wore a look from the Pre-Fall 2013 collection, as did Marion Cotillard—twice, in fact.

Who Wore Alexander McQueen Better Jessica Chastain or Gwei Lun-Mei

I think it is safe to say that Sarah Burton for Alexander McQueen is one of Jessica Chastain’s favourite designers.

She wore a red McQueen dress to the SAG Awards this weekend and another McQueen gown to the ‘Moonrise Kingdom’ premiere during Cannes Film Festival’s opening ceremony back in May; the red-haired beauty wore a beautiful light-pink Alexander McQueen Fall 2012 gown with Louis Vuitton jewels on that occasion.

At the time, I noted that the dress felt like it was missing one element. Cut to November and Gwei Lun-Mei showed us what that element was when she wore the same dress to the 49th Annual Golden Horse Awards.

It was the silver metal bow belt that was missing from this gorgeous frock.

That simple element improves the look ten-fold so Gwei Lun-Mei wins for me.

Jessica Chastain In Alexander McQueen - 2013 SAG Awards

We were a tad disappointed by Jessica Chastain’s Golden Globes gown, but she fared much better on Sunday evening at the 2012 SAG Awards.

Giving credit to Sarah Burton, who created her 2012 Oscars gown, the actress looked breathtaking in Alexander McQueen.

Her custom fiery red strapless gown with a sweetheart neckline gave her a sexy silhouette as she oozed glamour in her classic look.

Dazzling in Harry Winston jewels, the ‘Zero Dark Thirty’ star opted for soft waves and sweet pink lip colour.

This ranks highly on my favourites of the night.
