As the director of Kingsman: The Secret Service, the premiere was Matthew Vaughn's night.

And with supermodel wife Claudia Schiffer on his arm, the 43-year-old was sure to be in the spotlight.

The beauty stole the show at the film's premiere in New York on Monday in a cheetah-print mini dress.

Bring out your wild side in a leopard print dress

She's arguably one of the most well-known supermodels in the world and despite being mid-forties, she is still looking hot-to-trot. We didn't even have that body in our teens!

And it is her svelte figure that enables her to slip into patterned mini dresses with ease - bodycons not exposing any lumps or bumps (because she has none) and being able to pull off a micro mini dress without verging into mutton dressed as lamb. Not many forty-fifty year olds could do it like Claudia.

We love her leopard mini here, the long sleeves and panty-hose prevent too much skin being on show and if you look closely, the back of the dress is actually gingham - clashing prints are so high-fashion.

If you head to the carousel below, you'll see a variety of long sleeved leopard minis to suit all budgets. If you want to save the pennies, Whistles dress at Asos is in the sale and is a total bargain, or head to MATCHESFASHION.com and Farfetch for your designer picks.

The mother-of-three looked fierce while channeling a jungle cat and making sure her dress was the statement piece by covering her long legs in opaque black tights.

If the bright lights weren't already flourescent enough, Claudia's shiny locks made her attract attention even more.

Husband Matthew, who also directed Kick Ass and X-Men, dressed far more casually braving the cold in a black coat, grey scarf, dark denim jeans and fedora.

The couple - married since 2002 - walked hand-in-hand at the event and appeared to be enjoying their date night.

Kingsman: The Secret Service stars actors Colin Firth, Mark Hamill and Samuel L Jackson in a story about 'a spy organization that recruits an unrefined, but promising street kid into the agency's ultra-competitive training program just as a global threat emerges from a twisted tech genius (Jackson).'

If the movie goes on to great box office success after its February 15th release, Matthew is already planning for a sequel.

'I'd love to do a sequel, but it's really up to the public isn't it?' he recently revealed. 'We've got some really bold ideas. This is the real modern day gentleman spy. Again, there's some really crazy stuff we've got planned. But I can't do it if no one goes to see it.'

In early January, Matthew had some harsh words for fellow action film director Christopher Nolan telling The Hollywood Reporter: 'I think Nolan kick-started a very dark, bleak style of superhero escapism, and I think people have had enough of it. People want fun and escapism at the moment.'

Keeping that in mind, Matthew made sure Kingsman was more upbeat with humor.

'It's not a comedy, but it's full of laughs. It's got everything. It's a proper movie, but we're allowed to have a bit more fun with it. Its aim was to be entertaining but not silly,' he said.
