Jessica Chastain Also Promotes The Help
Yesterday we focussed on the delightful Emma Stone, one of the stars of the new movie I want to see, The Help. One of the other stars has also been looking awesome as she promotes the film. And she is a red head. You know how much we like red heads 'round these 'ere parts. She is the lovely actress Jessica Chastain.
Now Jessica is no young thing anymore. She is in her 30s and has a clear idea of who she is, having trodden the boards since she was 13 years old. First as a dancer, then as a Shakespearean actress, then attending Juilliard with sponsorship from Robin Williams. And in nine, yes NINE, movies to be released this year and next. She is literally the most famous person you had never heard of. Amazing. And her style reflects this. Assured, unswayed by being seen as young and hip, she relies quite a lot on Louis Vuitton and other brands that don't expect the wearer to be 'modern'. She knows her stuff — and her petite frame — and dresses accordingly. We are going to see A LOT of Jessica on the red carpet over the next 12 months, so we had better get to know her and her style. Starting here. What do you think? Are you excited?
