'He never takes his fame or success for granted': Felicity Jones claims she admires co-star Tom Hanks' work ethic and disinterest in the A-list lifestyle

She's been nominated for an Academy Award and has spent the last few years working on several high-profile Hollywood movies.

But Felicity Jones has remained grounded throughout the whirlwind experience - a trait which she fiercely admires in other A-list actors.  

The 32-year-old said she was particularly impressed by her Inferno co-star Tom Hanks, and spoke to Sunday Life about his down-to-earth attitude.

Channel a vintage vibe in Felicity's Gucci dress

It was Alexa Chung who first made us extol the virtues of a Peter Pan collar and realise they were the perfect way to introduce a vintage vibe to an outfit.

So you can imagine how much we loved Felicity Jones's Gucci dress, that not only featured a Peter Pan collar but boasted even more retro appeal thanks to the blouson sleeves, pinafore style and of course the statement bow-tie.

The quirky dress suited Felicity down to the ground, who is ever the individual-dresser herself. If it's tickling your fancy too, then you're in luck because we've managed to track it down to MyTheresa (click right).

To replicate the look without rinsing your bank account, these high-street picks below from Nymph, Sister Jane and Ted Baker all feature a cute collar and bow, just like Felicity's Gucci original!

'Tom is always absolutely focused and there's no messing around on set - his priority is making the best film possible,' she told the magazine. 

'He's also incredibly down to earth. He never takes any of his fame or success for granted,' she added.

Felicity's interest in film is more than just a pursuit of fame - which explains her admiration for true industry veterans like Tom.
