Jessica Chastain Shines in Hidden Heels at 20th Marrakech International Film Festival

Jessica Chastain brought formal glamour to the opening ceremony of the 20th Marrakech International Film Festival.

Chastain elegantly arrived to the red carpet for the event in Morocco on Saturday, draped in a black velvet Balmain dress. The Oscar-winning actress‘ attire, styled by Elizabeth Stewart, featured a long-sleeved silhouette with structured shoulders and a floor-length train.

The “Help” star’s dress was complete with a curved, open neckline, which was paneled with wrapped pink silk for a romantic finish. A beaded black bracelet smoothly completed Chastain’s outfit, which was likely finished with pumps, sandals or heeled footwear given her past red carpet outings. Shimmering, smoky taupe eyeshadow added a dynamic edge to actress’ look; similarly cool, neutral shades have been trending in the beauty world this fall, appearing in new palettes from brands including Urban Decay, Smashbox and Jones Road, among others.

During the festival’s opening ceremony, Chastain notably shared a special moment with fellow actresses Tilda Swinton and Isabell Huppert as the trio held hands together onstage.

Chastain’s shoe style is sleek and glamorous. The “Zero Dark Thirty” actress often wears pointed-toe pumps in a range of shades on the red carpet, hailing from brands including Christian Louboutin, Stuart Weitzman and Sergio Rossi. She’s also been seen in metallic heeled sandals by Charlotte Olympia, Prada and Aquazzura over the years. Off-duty, Chastain’s rotation is decidedly more casual, including New Balance sneakers and low-heeled boots from brands including Chanel.
