The redhead beauty made her way to London's Royal Albert Hall for the special screening of Interstellar Live, which featured a live score performed by Hans Zimmer and a 60-piece orchestra.

She slipped her shapely legs into a pair of sheer black tights, while she stood tall in a matching pair of towering heels.

With her glossy red locks swept to one side, Jessica's natural beauty was enhanced with a light dusting of make-up as she braved the inclement weather on the glamorous night.

And she was in great company at the event, rubbing shoulders with the likes of the film's director, Christopher Nolan, and professors Stephen Hawking and Brian Cox.

Step out in style with Jessica's pointed toe pumps

Jessica Chastain is letting her outfit do the talking. At the special screening of Interstellar, she wore a peter pan collared LBD with a gray printed tie. On her foot, she slipped on Saint Laurent's Janis pointy toe platform pumps.

A favorite among many stars, the Saint Laurent classic platform pumps have graced many red carpets. The 5" heel gives the starlets an extra lift in height. Meanwhile, the pointed toes creates an illusion that further elongates the legs.

The pumps are classic styles that would never go out of style. Invest in the covetable Saint Laurent ones, but it will set you back a cool $795.

We have our eyes set on the Nine West platform pumps and at $89, its definitely a no-brainer.
