Vogue Covers - Jessica Chastain


'Jessica Chastain burns up Hollywood' the December 2013 US Vogue cover line reads. The American actress couldn't have received a more fitting introduction to the style bible with all that flaming hair and a red hot career to boot.  Since winning over our hearts, and an Academy Award nomination for Best Actress, for her role in The Help, Chastain's star has been on the rise...I personally like to think that I first spotted her in Agatha Christie's Murder on the Orient Express and everyone took their lead from me.....

The 37-year-old landed a gig as the face of Yves Saint Laurent's Manifesto fragrance in 2012 and is considered a regular on fashion show front rows around the globe. She also recently probed Karl Lagerfeld in one of his most revealing interviews to date. This certainly begs the question as to why Anna Wintour hasn't snared the flame-haired starlet for Vogue's covers before now, however what do we mere mortals know?

Shot by Annie Leibovitz, Chastain is pictured reclining in a yellow Theory by Theyskens' gown by the sea; a pose which has been coined as a likeness to Frederic Leighton's Flaming June painting. Vogue readers will also see Chastain recreate other pieces of classic artwork in the monthly fashion tome, the Huffington Post reveals but for now..what do you think of the cover?
