Kate Winslet stuns in a black suit as she greets fans in NYC following her appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert

Kate Winslet stunned in a black suit on Tuesday night as she greeted fans in NYC following her appearance on The Late Show With Stephen Colbert.

The Lee actress, 48, paired the black suit, with cropped trousers, with a grey shirt and layers of gold necklaces and large gold hoops.

She accessorised with black slingback heels and black-framed glasses. 

Kate talked intently with the fans that crowded the Sullivan Theater, where the Late Show is filmed, and signed autographs.

And once inside the studio she spoke to host Stephen, 60, about her new film Lee, which hit cinemas on September 13.

Lee is a British biographical drama film following the life of model-turned-Vogue WWII journalist Lee Miller, portrayed by Kate.

Ellen Kuras’ feature film directorial debut premiered at the 48th annual Toronto International Film Festival in September 2023. It was based on the book The Lives Of Lee Miller by Lee’s son Antony Penrose.

The drama also stars Josh O’Connor, Marion Cotillard, Alexander Skarsgard, and Andy Samberg. 

Kate told Stephen of the real-life Lee: ‘She went to bear witness. She kept her eyes open. She didn’t look away.

‘She could have gone home. She could have decided it was too dangerous. She could have decided it was too much.

‘But, she didn’t. Because, to be that visual voice for the victims of conflict, was something she felt utterly compelled to do.

‘Because, exactly as you say, those stories may never otherwise have been told. And, everyone has a right for their story to be remembered in conflict. 

‘And that is so relevant to today.’

In September, Kate revealed she was told to hide her ‘belly rolls’ on the set of Lee.

Kate told BBC’s Laura Kuenssberg that she responded: ‘It was my job to be like Lee. She wasn’t lifting weights and doing Pilates, she was eating cheese, bread and drinking wine and not making a big deal of it, so of course her body would be soft.’  

‘But I think we’re so used to perhaps not necessarily seeing that and enjoying it – the instinct, weirdly, is to see it and criticise it or comment on it in some way.  

‘It’s interesting how much people do like labels for women. And they very much liked them in Lee’s day, and, annoyingly, they sort of still do – we slap these labels on women that we just don’t have for men. It’s absolutely bizarre to me.’
