Jessica Chastain’s in Dior
Jessica Chastain walked the red carpet at the 74th annual Cannes Film Festival in a Dior Couture Autumn-Winter 2019-2020 by Maria Grazia Chiuri gown that featured a strapless layered black net evening gown embellished with velvet scrolls. The gown was stunning and elegant, but it was a little too solemn for Chastain. The beautiful emerald jewels and red lip were overshadowed by a little too simple black gown.
Abigail Breslin in Dolce & Gabbana
Abigail Breslin wore an emerald green gown by Dolce & Gabbana with a crystal-encrusted neckline. She accessorised the look with emerald jewellery. The gown’s colour and shape did not compliment Abigail or the 74th Cannes red carpet.
