Halle Berry appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live wearing two stunning pieces by Spanish designer Teresa Helbig. 

Her black silk kimono top with gold detailing and the black fringed skirt already have us wondering how we can steal her style, while she finished off the look with a pair of stiletto sandals by Casadei.

The 55-year-old actor, who recently shared the secret to getting rock-hard abs is making the media rounds to promote her directorial debut, Bruised. 

Halle stars in the movie as Jackie Justice, an aging mixed martial arts (MMA) champion who is dealing with the return of the 6-year-old son she had given up for adoption while also training for an unsanctioned match against the current top female MMA fighter.

Lindsay Flores, Halle's long-time stylist, prepared the look for her late-night appearance. The director wore the kimono open, cinched at the waist with a black belt boasting a snake-like gold buckle. Jewelry-wise, the actress kept it very simple with just a couple of rings on.

The stylish find also comes in a burgundy-and-gold color combination. Team with block colors for a sophisticated look.

Clearly, the mother of two likes her metallics. Just a week ago, the star wore a metallic suit by Pamella Roland at the Los Angeles premiere of Bruised. The look featured a strapless top, a cropped jacket with black lapels and flared pants. She completed the outfit with silver earrings. 

But Halle's sense of fashion isn't the only reason she's made headlines recently. Earlier this year, the Oscar-winning actress took to Twitter to discuss ageism in Hollywood, specifically dissecting how Bruised gives her more hope for the future.

"It used to be when you were 40 your career was done…and I mean really done. I couldn't think that I'd be playing an MMA fighter at 54 years old. Yet I did, so it's got to be changing. I'm proof of that," she tweeted.

For the indie sports drama, Halle underwent an intense training regiment that even left her with two cracked ribs after only the first day of shooting. 

And, yet, she soldiered through and takes time to discuss the strict fitness routine.  

Back in March, she actually offered fans free access to her exercise plan on FitOn in the hopes that money-related issues wouldn't impede others from staying fit.

"I think for so long people thought, 'You have to have a trainer. You have to have a gym membership. You have to have all this equipment. You have to eat certain meals'," she told Harper's Bazaar. "That costs a certain amount. I think we've talked ourselves out of being fit, sometimes, because we think it's something that's unobtainable or not affordable." 

One thing’s for sure: Halle has got some of Jackie’s fight in her. 

Bruised is showing now on Netflix.
