She then jauntily continued on to take her seat leaving Colbert standing and lost for words.

It took him a little time to regain his composure before joining Mirren at his desk.

'If I didn't do it then, I'd never get to do it,' the star of The Queen explained to a still stunned Colbert.

'I have been dreaming of doing that for 15 years, so I just grabbed my chance. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry.'

'I suddenly can't remember any questions,' Colbert replied, as the audience laughed.

'That is one of the nicest greetings any guest has ever given me,' he told the actress.  'Wow! You know what you're doing.'

Colbert went on: 'Can you imagine the number of people who are jealous of me right now?'

'Including me, when I watch it. I'll be going, why didn't I do more?' Mirren saucily responded.

'The night is young Dame Helen,' the Late Show host said flirtatiously.

Mirren, who's married to director Taylor Hackford, wore a stylish black dress for her TV appearance at Manhattan's Ed Sullivan Theater.

She added black leather heels with peep toes and black tights.

Make like Helen Mirren in a chic black dress

Helen Mirren is one of the most stylish celebrities; she knows how to dress elegantly and maturely.

Some of her favored designers include Elie Saab, Jenny Packham and Escada and of course, as demonstrating here, Dolce & Gabbana is top of her list too.

The actress donned this black midi dress by the brand on The Late Show, a pick she has actually donned before during the British Film Festival last year, so it clearly is a favorite. We can't blame Helen for wanting to wear this sophisticated number again; LBDs are always a trusty option, especially when they're by Dolce & Gabbana.

Sadly, the dress isn't available to buy, but do not fear, Fashion Finder has saved the day with four pretty black dresses below all in the same style as Helen's, so you can snap up her look with a simple click of the button.

Team with colored courts to pack a punch, or go demure with simple black pumps.

She's currently in New York filming the dramatic comedy Collateral Beauty, which boasts a star-studded cast including Keira Knightley, Kate Winslet, Will Smith, Naomie Harris and Edward Norton, in the city.

The movie tells the story of an advertising executive, played by Smith, who falls into a deep depression following a personal tragedy.

Helen plays an actress hired by his colleagues as part of a plan to break him out of his dark spell.
