She has been known for her daring choices in the past, including a penchant for black leather, curiosity with knives and blood, and not to mention her ever-expanding collection of tattoos.
And while mother-of-six Angelina Jolie has toned things down somewhat, today the 36-year-old actress showed she still posses a racy side.
The Girl Interrupted star carried a kinky handcuff clutch by Louis Vuitton at a gala presentation of her partner Brad Pitt’s new film, Moneyball, screened during the 36th Toronto International Film Festival.
The gold handbag was attached to the actress’ arm by a chunky metallic cuff and large chain.
It was an edgy accoutrement to Angelina’s stunning black floor-length silk gown.
The dress swathed beautifully over the actress’ slim body, and proved that basic black really is the perfect shade for the brunette beauty.
To accent her stand-out accessory, Angelina wore a pair of simple gold earrings and went low-key with her footwear, opting for some black satin shoes.
The glowing star wore metallic brown shadow to accentuate her hazel-green eyes and went neutral with her lipstick, opting for a glossy nude hue.
As always Brad and Ange cuddled up on the red-carpet, staring lovingly into each other’s eyes.
For his big night, the 47-year-old actor looked dapper in a black suit, paired with a crisp white shirt and knitted black tie.
The hunky star shielded his eyes with a pair of sunglasses and sported a stubbly mustache and beard.
Waving to their fans, the Hollywood power couple commanded attention from the cheering crowd.
Earlier in the day, Brad joined his co-star Jonah Hill at a press conference for the film.
The actor opted to be more casual for the sit-down Q&A in a velvet jacket, open white shirt and a pair of denim jeans.
During the grilling, he seemed tired and reacting to the chatter at one point, he buried his head in his hands.
Brad’s latest release is quite a departure from his usual roles.
Based on a true story it follow Oakland A’s general manager Billy Beane, who is played by the Seven star.
Using statistics and mathematical analysis to draft players, he successfully puts together a baseball team.
Against financial odds he creates a competitive team.
But Angelina hardly looked fatigued today considering all the travel the couple have been doing.
The pair jetted into Toronto sometime in the last 24 hours, after being in the UK, where Brad is filming his new movie project World War Z.
The Fight Club actor has been on set in Glasgow and has been commuting between Scotland and Surrey, England, where Jolie is looking after the children.
Yesterday, Brad swooped down to collect Angelina in Richmond, before whisking her away in a helicopter, which no doubt took the pair to an airport for their trip to the Canadian city.
Having been separated again this week because of shooting commitments, the couple appeared to have scheduled in some alone time, with the adults just jetting off and leaving the brood with a carer.
Despite obviously being elated with his arrival, earlier in the day Angelina had made the most of Brad’s absence, by spending a day to herself for a change.
After spending the summer entertaining her active brood every day, Angelina looked excited to be enjoying a rare day out alone in London – and she dressed up for special occasion.
Most often seen in flat ballet shoes in her time off, the 5ft 8in actress stepped out in stiletto boots, a floating grey skirt and designer sunglasses as she got into a car that was waiting for her in the Soho street.
As she stepped into the crowd of fans trying to take her picture, she held a wad of paper in her hand marked with bright pink Post It notes, prompting speculation that she may be reading a new script.
The Tourist star took the summer off from her own movie career to follow Brad around Europe while he shoots his zombie action film.
He has left Jolie with plenty of time to spend with Maddox, ten, Zahara, seven, Pax, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox.
Their travels have included living in Malta, Scotland and England, and Angelina has gone to great lengths to make sure the children didn’t get bored wherever they stayed.
Along with trips to bowling alleys, cinemas and pottery painting, the Salt star introduced them to the local cultures of their adopted home lands such as a visit to aquariums in both Malta and London.
She’s even introduced them to the dramatic arts by taking the budding actors to the theater to see West End musicals, Shrek and Wicked.
It will be back to work soon for the movie star when she begins promoting her directorial début, In the Land of Blood and Honey, which tells the story of how a couple’s romance is affected by the Bosnian war.
In a recent interview with Vanity Fair magazine, Angelina opened up about Brad and revealed how he helped her with her first directorial project.
‘He’d come in and say what he liked or what he didn’t understand. Like any woman, I would listen to most of it and fight a few things. He’s been so supportive. But it’s hard to separate the person that loves you from the critic, so I don’t think he’s a fair judge,’ she told the magazine.
Before shooting, Jolie said she sent the script to ‘reporters and writers, people of Serbian and Bosnian nationality who’d been through the war. I was gauging the accuracy…. If they said no, I wouldn’t have done it.’
Two things that are definitely not on her upcoming schedule, however, are marriage and pregnancy.
The Mr and Mrs Smith star commented in the interview in the October issue of the magazine and said: ‘There is no secret wedding’
She also quashed rumours that the couple will be having more children, at least for the moment and said: ‘I’m not pregnant. I’m not adopting at the moment.’
