Jessica Chastain brought her grandma, Jerri Chastain, as her plus-one for the 2023 Tony Awards tonight in New York City.

Chastain — nominated this evening for Best Actress in a Play for her leading role in “A Doll’s House” — vibrantly arrived on the red carpet in a flowing yellow Gucci gown. Styled by Elizabeth Stewart, the Oscar-winning actress‘ ensemble featured a multi-toned strapless bodice with a sweetheart neckline and flowing floor-length skirt, paired with a matching cape.

When it came to footwear, Chastain’s footwear could not be seen. However, it’s likely the “Help” star wore a set of platform or thin-soled sandals or pumps in a complementary tone, given her penchant for the styles over the years — and similar techniques at the awards, seen on stars including Rachel Brosnahan, Lily Rabe and Sophia Choi.

The 2023 Tony Awards, which celebrate the top theater performances on Broadway, were held at Radio City Music Hall in New York City and aired on CBS and Paramount+ on Sunday. The ceremony, hosted by Ariana DeBose, was attended by Jessica Chastain, Lea Michele, Jodie Comer and other stars.
