Dame Helen Mirren looks casual in a green coat while jetting out of Nice Airport trends now

Dame Helen Mirren cut a casual figure as she jetted her way out of Nice Airport on Wednesday after attending the 76th Cannes Film Festival's opening night.

The actress, 77, kept things low-key in a white T-shirt and black leggings, which she teamed up with a green coat and a matching headband.

Her tresses were back to their usual shade of silver, just a day after she debuted a dramatic new blue dye job at the Jeanne du Barry premiere.

Helen completed her look with a pair of white trainers and was joined by her film director husband Taylor Hackford, 78.

He donned a navy Dolce & Gabbana bomber jacket and dark grey jeans, along with a baseball cap and black shoes.

The Good Liar star placed a loving hand around her partner's shoulder as they checked into the airport.

Just the night before, she showcased her unique sense of style as she perfectly matched the colour of her quirky new do to her gorgeous gown.

Helen looked sensational in the figure-hugging frock that boasted a plunging neckline and sculpted skirt.

The L'Oréal ambassador swept her newly dyed locks high into a Marie Antoinette style Pouf, to match the movie's French historic theme, as she posed with a fan that read 'Worth it' - the hair brand's famous slogan.

Accentuating her features with make-up she completed the look with a diamond necklace and matching earrings.

She completed the look with a pair of towering Remy: Silver Suede & Snake platforms by luxury brand Sole Bliss retailing for £199.

Later she toted a Champagne and silver Luna Clutch by luxury brand Aspinal of London, complete with a pearl strap and retailing for £1,250.

This year's festival promises a Cote d'Azur buffet of spectacle, scandal and cinema set to be served over the next 12 days.
