School of frock: Jessica Chastain reigns supreme
Sorry, Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt but my mirror tells me Jessica Chastain is the fairest of them all
JESSICA CHASTAIN

Gown: Altuzarra

Loving the subtle shades of green and the sequin embellishments against her colouring and fiery locks. It's gothic, romantic, medieval, even ethnic - all things to all people, really. Chastain may not be playing the queen in the fairy tale flick but she definitely dethrones co-stars Charlize Theron and Emily Blunt off-screen.

Hot colour. Hot dress. Hot mama. Hurley is 50 years old and kicking middle age in the nuts.

Delevingne thrives on delivering edge and may be the only person on the planet who can make a weird black velvet sheer-panelled ensemble like this so painfully cool.

Yes, because KimK of all people needs an obvious white patch on her outfit to remind people how huge and wide her hips are.

For a former Miss Universe, this crime against fashion is unpardonable. The whole top is one knot away from falling apart.
WHO WORE IT BETTER?
Short suits have no business on red carpets, whether they're black, white, simply to show off long legs or are immaculately tailored. It's just plain lazy. Will it hurt Roberts to don a gown once in a while? Will it kill Aniston to deviate from her basic black wardrobe? Even though the latter has been getting away with boring-as-hell variations of the black tuxedo romper and is giving me a big dose of deja vu, it's still better than Roberts' hopeless, stiff attempt.

"It was loose at the front. And I didn't have to worry about sucking anything in. (My Plan A) dress was really tight, and I'm not going to suck in my uterus. I don't have to do that."
