Jessica Chastain took a whimsical approach to gala dressing at the 2023 Chaplin Award Gala honoring Viola Davis on Monday in New York.
The actress looked to Zuhair Murad’s fall 2022 couture collection, wearing a black multicolored beaded tulle gown with cross straps. The ensemble, which also had a crisscross detail around her neckline, mirrored a mosaic tile, with beaded leaves, stars and eyes.
