Last week she clocked up the air-miles, putting in flawless appearances in Milan, Toronto and at New York Fashion Week.

Jessica Chastain, 38, looked as stylishly elegant as ever, as she attended a highbrow night out in NYC on Monday.

The Zero Dark Thirty actress chose a clingy peekaboo multi-coloured top, which showed off her trim figure and impressive assets, for the Metropolitan Opera's season opening night of Verdi's Otello.

The Autumnal-toned pattern was the perfect palette for her distinctive auburn locks, which she sleeked into 1920's style waves.

It gave a flash of flesh between stitched together petals, in bronze, blue and black.

The Interstellar star flaunted her slim hips and long legs in sophisticated black tailored trousers.

Stunning: Brooke Shields was sure to turn heads as she brought her red-carpet A-game in a cardinal red lace overlay gown, which showed off her enviable figure

Her flawless porcelain skin was warmed up with a peachy blush and she defined her green peepers with plenty of thick dark lash.

She's been busy promoting her latest film, The Martian, which also stars Matt Damon - so no doubt enjoyed a break from the trail with a night at the opera - which was first performed at the Met in 1891.

Based on Shakespeare's Othello, which originated the phrase 'wear my heart upon my sleeve', the opera's famous and glamorous fans seemed to have made sure their arms were, indeed, covered sleeves - albeit without their hearts on display.

Glam: Looking far younger than her 50 years, the model and actress swept her honey tresses into a low side ponytail as she arrived with husband Chris Henchy

Legend: Bette Midler may be 69, but she proved that she can rock skinny leather trousers better than someone half her age

Brooke Shields was sure to turn heads as she brought her red-carpet A-game in a cardinal red lace overlay gown, which showed off her enviable figure.

Looking far younger than her 50 years, the model and actress swept her honey tresses into a low side ponytail.

She completed her chic look with a matching red clutch bag and nude peep-toe heels.

Striking: The singing legend was unmissable in a voluminous satin scarlet coat, and carried a gold jewelled clutch

Classic: Also set for an operatic night out were Dylan McDermott and Maggie Q, who arrived in formal black attire

Bette Midler may be 69, but she proved that she can rock skinny leather trousers better than someone half her age.

The singing legend was unmissable in a voluminous satin scarlet coat, and carried a gold jewelled clutch.

Also set for an operatic night out were Dylan McDermott and Maggie Q, who arrived in formal black attire, and Lance Bass with Lilliana Vazquez.

Bold: Helen Mirren, 70, stepped out with characteristic quirkiness in a dress which carried a print that looked like it had been drawn by young children

Helen Mirren, 70, stepped out with characteristic quirkiness in a dress which carried a bold print that looked like it had been drawn by young children.

Featuring rainbows, poppies, and boxy houses and reminiscent of the designs of the wedding gown which Angelina Jolie said she allowed her brood to hand decorate, Helen's fun calf length colourful outfit was a refreshing change at the formal event.

The Prime Suspect actress carried a black box bag and showed off her perfectly turned ankles in white low-heeled court shoes.

Model power: Jessica Hart, 29, kept her styling simple in a sleeveless black floor length gown while Helena Christensen, 46, displayed a deep golden tan in wine with metallic gold accessories

Fresh from the jungle: Tarzan star Alexander Skarsgård kept it classic in a slim fitting black tux with bow tie

Fringe benefits: Cocktail actress Gina Gershon, 53, took it back to black in ebony fringed threads while Patricia Clarkson also went for a gilded trim - in a jade green sleeveless cocktail dress

Model Jessica Hart, 29, kept her styling simple in a sleeveless black floor length gown which made the most of her slim figure and 5ft 10in frame.

Helena Christensen, 46, displayed a deep golden tan in a wine gown with metallic gold accessories, while Patricia Clarkson also went for a gilded trim - in a jade green sleeveless cocktail dress.

Cocktail actress Gina Gershon, 53, took it back to black flashing her bare back in ebony fringed threads, while Alexander Skarsgård kept it classic in a slim fitting black tux with bow tie.

He's due to take the titular role of Tarzan on the big screen next year, so no doubt was enjoying a break from filming in a loin cloth.
