Falling just above the knee, the form-fitting design was the perfect choice to show off Penelope's slim curves and slender legs. 

The Vicky Cristina Barcelona star complimented the look with a pair of skyscraper black stilettos and hooped diamond earrings.

Her highlighted brunette locks were worn in a straight style, while her side-swept fringe made sure to delicately frame her pretty face which had been enhanced with a smokey eye-shadow look and a nude lipstick.

The Vanilla Sky actress is already busy working on new movie La reina de España, which she will also star in and produce.

Intriguingly, Penelope recently admitted that she is planning to move away from acting and into production.

Speaking to Variety in Cannes earlier this year, she dished: 'I want to build what could be my future in cinema, not always being in front of the camera.

'I'd also like to direct a feature, maybe 10 years from now. For now, I’m directing commercial and video-clips; I love that.'

Penelope is married to fellow Oscar winner Javier Bardem, with whom she has two children.
