She made an eye-catching appearance in a red dress at the premiere of her new film Labor Day on Monday evening.

But on Tuesday Kate Winslet clearly fancied something a little more low-key when she was spotted out and about in London.

The expectant mother gave a lesson in chic maternity wear as she stepped out in a very flattering black dress which hugged her growing bump.

The dress fell just above her knees and while it featured a wraparound low-cut neck line it still remained very demure.

She teamed the dress with a pair of black stiletto heels showing she’s not suffering from the dreaded swollen ankles many women have to deal with when expecting.

Her blonde hair had been styled casually off her face in a ponytail with sections falling from the front to frame her relatively make-up free face.

The actress, who is expecting her third child and first with her husband Ned Rocknroll, didn’t look in the least bit tired despite her red carpet antics the evening before.

Speaking at the event, Kate said: 'I haven't had many cravings. I've been wanting to drink a lot of orange juice but I don't know if that is part of it.'

Asked whether she would be taking a long maternity leave, she replied: 'Err... Ask me that on a different red carpet, I've got pregnancy brain!'

In Labor Day, Kate plays a single mother who unwittingly takes in an escaped convict (Brolin) and gives him shelter, but her relationship with the man begins threatening her bond with her teenage son, played by Gattlin Griffith.

Speaking at a press conference for Labor Day earlier this week , Kate - who is already mother to Mia 13, and Joe, nine - was full of praise for 14-year-old Griffith, admitting she was quite motherly on set.

Posing up:Inside the event, Kate posed alongside the movie's director Jason Reitman and co-star Josh Brolin

The pregnant star said: 'It was one of the most wonderful working relationships I've ever had because it was honestly such a privilege to spend that amount of time with someone who's that lovely at that particular age, which is the most gorgeous age for a young girl or boy.

'Early on, my big thing to him was to say, 'You're terrified - don't worry, so am I, so is Josh, so is Jason, and so is everyone else.'
