Red carpet beauties: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at the premiere of The Tourist in Madrid, Spain, last night


She's been working hard to promote her new movie The Tourist, pulling out all the stops for her red carpet outfits for the film's various European premieres.

But last night Angelina Jolie looked better than ever as she arrived at the Madrid premiere in Spain wearing a unusual dress with a jewelled top and billowing black skirt.

The 35-year-old actress teamed the look with a matching black shawl and the best accessory of all - her Hollywood heartthrob partner Brad Pitt on her arm.

However, Brad, 46, couldn't match Angelina in terms of red carpet style, and showed up in a pair of less-than-flattering black leather trousers.

It's the second time in a week Brad has rolled out the leathers, which are arguably much too young for a man of his age.

Perhaps he was trying to take some fashion tips from Angelina's co-star Johnny Depp, who somehow always manages to pull off the quirky style, despite being a year older than Brad at 47.

But Angelina didn't seem to mind, smiling beatifically as she posed for photographers with her beau.

Brad and Angelina have been busy jetting around Europe over the past week, with Brad joining his partner on the red carpet at the various premieres.

However, Angelina admitted yesterday that she was enjoying her time in Spain more than some of her other European stops, because she likes drinking in the Spanish culture.

She said: 'I love Madrid and Barcelona mainly for art and great food.

'There are extraordinary museums and collections of art here.'

Meanwhile, it has been claimed Brad and Angelina are planning to finally marry at the Adhyatm Vigyan Satsang Kendra healing centre, in Jodhpur, north-west India, on Valentine's Day (February 14th) next year.

According to the Hinudstani Times, the pair have been taking yoga lessons from the temple's leader Siddh Guru Ramlal Siyag, for years and believe he is the perfect person to conduct their Indian ceremony.

Also at the premiere last night was Angelina's co-star Depp, who had gone for a more scrubbed-up look for the premiere compared for the 'cowboy chic' style he had shown off at the film's photocall earlier in the day.

In sharp contrast, Angelina had stuck to her wardrobe staple of black as she arrived at the photocall, accessorising her black top and trousers with a fluffy white bolero.

The Tourist tells the story of Frank (Depp), an American tourist who travels to Italy in a bid to mend his broken heart. While there, he bumps into a woman called Elise (Jolie), who isn't quite as she seems.

Directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck, the film, a remake of the 2005 French film Anthony Zimmer, has already been tipped for Oscars and has earned both Angelina and Depp Golden Globe nominations for Best Actor and Best Actress.

Talking about the film recently, Jolie said she enjoyed the role because she got the opportunity to explore a different fashion side to herself in 1950's, Grace Kelly-inspired chic outfits.

She said: 'Elise was very specific, but I did add things I thought were right for the character. It had a kind of sexiness, but it had to be fun. It had elegance to it. The dress with the high slit with the bow on the bum - we wanted something more playful and sweeter for her.

'It was definitely very different than anything I've ever worn. It took me a while to wear the heels, and the gloves, and figure out to hold the handbag. I think everyone here knows that I'm not too female in that way. It was a little bit of an exercise for me.'

The Tourist also marks the first time Hollywood heavyweights Angelina and Johnny have starred in a film together.

Speaking about working alongside Angelina, Johnny said: 'She's a lot of fun, deeply committed to the work, very smart, great approach, funny, very absurd and a perverse sense of humour.

'When we sat down together, it was kind of instant. We got each other. Within minutes we were talking about our kids, the perils of parenthood, all that fun stuff.'
