Jessica Chastain has been hustling for Molly’s Game for weeks. I kept meaning to do some stand-alone fashion posts for Chastain’s many premiere looks, but honestly, most of the looks weren’t that great. These photos are from the New York premiere and the Amsterdam premiere. In New York, Chastain wore the black-and-white Oscar de la Renta ballgown, the one with “Oscar de la Renta” in scribbled cursive on the skirt. I’m okay with the idea of Chastain in a ballgown – the silhouette suits her figure beautifully – but I just don’t like this particular dress that much. In Amsterdam, Jessica wore a teal Elie Saab which… was beautifully designed, flattering and fine. I’m not 100% into it, but it’s a good gown and a perfect premiere look.

Meanwhile, to promote her contract as the face of the Ralph Lauren perfume Woman, Chastain chatted with Marie Claire. It was basically a series of one-sentence answers, but I found some of the stuff interesting – you can see the full piece here. My favorite answers:

Best career advice I’ve gotten: To not follow the money, but to follow the education of projects.

Worst pitfall of the job: People stop saying no to you—that’s when you start going on a downward spiral.

Change I’d like to see in my industry: Lose its fear of women in powerful positions.

Last thing I binge-watched: The Crown [Netflix], because it’s a story of a woman’s power and trying to navigate a relationship without emasculating her husband.

What every woman should try once in her lifetime: Going to a restaurant and having dinner by herself.

Relationship advice to my younger self: If you think he’s cheating on you, he probably is.

Craziest thing I ever did for love: I’m very shy, so I don’t do public displays of affection. I think love is intimate, and once it becomes a public thing is more about getting attention than being real.

Something I did recently for myself, because, why not: I left my phone at home and went for a walk in the countryside. It’s something I do when I get anxious. It’s important to be without your phone sometimes—it’s the best self-care you can do.

You know what just occurred to me? Jessica married her guy, Gian, earlier this year, but she hasn’t even mentioned him during her promotional tour. Even the most actress-y actresses in the world will often give some details about their weddings or their “husbands” but not Jessica. And I agree with her advice: “If you think he’s cheating on you, he probably is.” I also wish someone had told me this when I was younger: if you think he has a crush on you, he probably does. And if you think a guy is a douchebag the first time you meet him, he probably is. Basically, young women need to be advised to trust their instincts all the time.
