When Karl Lagerfeld regularly takes pictures with you backstage at his highly-anticipated Chanel shows, it’s pretty obvious that you’ve already earned your place as one of fashion’s elites.
Jessica Chastain showed off her friendship with Chanel’s head designer Karl Lagerfeld as she graced his haute couture show at the Paris Fashion Week AW 2016/2017.

When in doubt: Jessica went with the classic no-fail Christian Louboutin “So Kate” pumps in black patent.
If Audrey Hepburn and Coco Chanel had a love child, we imagine this look would be it. The actress wore a sheer shirt underneath an embellished Chanel jacket, pairing it with a Chanel black leather skirt. Both pieces are from the Pre-Fall 2016 collection.

Jessica and Karl apparently have a long-withstanding friendship, which has spanned several collections now. (Is there another way to count time when you’re in the fashion industry?) The actress uploaded a photo of the two of them backstage after the show.
We’ve spotted the “So Kate” in black patent on numerous other celebrities, including Hailee Steinfeld, Anna Faris, Gwen Stefani and Nicole Richie. Amber Heard also wore them with a menswear-inspired Saint Laurent Spring 2018 ensemble to promote her new movie “Aquaman” at the 2018 CinemaCon at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Don’t you love her statement hat?
