Cannes'14: Sonam & Jessica In Similar Gowns
Cannes Film Festival 2014 has never had a dull moment. First, there was the excitement of the Cannes red carpet crasher who tried to crawl under America Ferrera's gown. Then there was the unexpected incident of Aishwarya Rai Bachchan missing her flight to Nice. And finally, there is a semi-wardrobe malfunction on the red carpet of Cannes Film Festival 2014. Jessica Chastain's Elie Saab gown blew away on a windy evening revealing more of her thigh than it was intended to show.
While the whole world is busy drooling over Jessica Chastain's Marilyn Monroe moment, most fashion commentators seemed to have missed an important point. Sonam Kapoor was seen wearing something similar to Jessica Chastain later in the night for the Chopard party at Cannes 2014. In fact, both Jessica Chastain and Sonam Kapoor were in Elie Saab gown from the same Spring 2014 collection. In fact, the two gowns look like different versions of the same gown. The colour of the two gowns is also quite similar.
Sonam Kapoor's Elie Saab gown has a structured bodice and is strapless. On the other hand, Jessica Chastain's Elie Saab gown has a wrapped bodice, is one shoulder and has a trailing cape. Both the fashionistas wore these two similar gowns on the same night at Cannes Film Festival 2014! That is a huge coincidence. Luckily, the two women did not wear it for the same red carpet event at once!
Here is a head-to-head comparison of the two Elie Saab gowns worn by Sonam Kapoor and Jessica Chastain at Cannes 2014 and it also covers Jessica's 'oh' moment when her gown was blown away by the wind.
Jessica Chastain In Elie Saab
Jessica Chastain is wearing the exact ramp version of the Elie Saab Spring 2014 collection on the premiere of 'Foxcatcher' at Cannes 2014.
Sonam Kapoor In Elie Saab
Sonam Kapoor is also wearing the exact runaway version of this Elie Saab gown at the Chopard party of Cannes 2014.
On The Ramp
If you take a close look at the two gowns, you will release that not only are they both from the same collection but they are actually two different versions of the same gown.
Jessica Chastain's Gown
Jessica Chastain wore her gown a little differently from Sonam Kapoor. As Jessica's gown did not have a structured bodice like Sonam's gown, she went for a fluid look by leaving her hair open and keeping her neck bare.
The Cape
Unlike Sonam's gown, Jessica's gown has a cape on one side and was single shouldered. And Jessica looked like goddess as her gown billowed in the wind.
Wrapped Bodice
Jessica Chastain's gown has a wrapped bodice and we think that is what added to the fluidity of this thigh-high slit gown. We are totally in awe with this Elie Saab gown!
Thigh High
Jessica Chastain made it obvious that her gown was a thigh-high slit by showing off her leg and also the splendid Roger Vivier high heel sandals.
Marilyn Monroe Moment
But wind played spoilsport and blew away Jessica Chastain's gown a bit too much for her liking. But she handled herself quite gracefully on the red carpet.
Head-to-head
We have to say that we like Jessica Chastain gown a bit more than Sonam Kapoor's despite the wardrobe malfunction. The fluidity of Jessica Chastain's gown was really enchanting so she scores half a mark more than Sonam on the fashion metre.
