Nicole Kidman makes a stylish appearance in her open-back dress at National Board of Review Awards

It looks like Nicole Kidman never fails to deliver when it comes to making a stylish red carpet appearance. The “Babygirl” actor has started the new year strong, walking a couple of red carpets in head-turning ensembles. On January 7, she couldn’t keep the paps away from her striking all-black dress at the 2025 National Board of Review Awards Gala. Her entrance marked a viral moment, making her outfit easily one of the best at the event.

Nicole Kidman rocked a black Jean Paul Gaultier dress for the 2025 National Board of Review Awards Gala. The attire featured a high neckline and full sleeves along with a body-hugging fit that highlighted her fit physique and curves. The velvet dress looked simplistic at first glance before the actor turned to reveal a dramatic back design. The open-back ensemble came with unique pearl detailing that made its way from the neckline all the way to her hips. The pearls were also subtly embroidered around the sleeve cuffs to ensure symmetry in the design. 

The pearl detailing elevated the look of the otherwise monochromatic fit. To enhance the pearl design, Kidman stuck to minimal but unique accessories, including a combination of a long drop earring on one ear and a stud earring on the other. She complemented the sophisticated ensemble with matching black Christian Louboutin pumps. Fashion stylist Jason Bolden put the actor’s ensemble in place. Meanwhile, she opted for subtle glam to not take the attention away from her stunning dress. The Oscar winner further styled her golden blonde tresses into a soft side ponytail with a side part.

The 2025 National Board of Review Awards Gala saw the actor accept the Best Actress Award and drink a full glass of milk as a toast to all the “babygirls” in the room.

Nicole Kidman’s Golden Globes look is one for the books

Styled by Jason Bolden, Nicole Kidman dazzled in a custom Balenciaga gown to attend the Golden Globes 2025. According to Harper’s Bazaar, the piece was inspired by a look from the brand’s 52nd couture collection. The sparkly one-shoulder piece added an elegant touch with its drapey tailoring and a train. It was made out of mesh fabric embroidered with all-over crystals and rhinestones. Meanwhile, the highlight of the bedazzling piece was its racy backless design.

Although Kidman’s Balenciaga gown seemed completely skin-baring from the back, the section actually featured a barely visible transparent material to hold the piece together. The dress also added a hint of drama with a high slit on the side of the flowy skirt. Another attention-commanding element of Kidman’s ensemble was her voluminous sky-high ponytail. The actor’s hairstyle, which was styled by Adir Abergel, added a glamorous twist to her look. As for her accessories, she wore a shiny pair of drop earrings, a bracelet, and a set of rings. Besides that, makeup artist Gucci Westman created Kidman’s subtle glam for the evening. 

Later, Nicole Kidman flaunted her Golden Globes 2025 ensemble in a joint Instagram post following her attendance at the event. Soon enough, fans rushed to the comments section to gush over the star’s latest fashion moment, with several obsessing over her hairstyle.

Over the past twelve months, the Australian-American actress and film producer has graced the covers of Vogue Australia, ELLE, Vanity Fair, W Magazine, and was splashed across a multitude of covers as the global cover star of L’Officiel in September.

Nicole Kidman looked straight out of a fairytale in a gown covered with floral appliqués at the Los Angeles premiere of her new movie, “Babygirl.” The actor looked elegant and regal as she posed for photos on the pink carpet. Other than Kidman, cast members Esther Rose McGregor and Harris Dickinson were also present at the erotic thriller’s L.A. premiere.

Nicole Kidman makes a chic appearance in floral gown at ‘Babygirl’ premiere

Yesterday, Nicole Kidman brought on the flower power on the pink carpet for the premiere of her latest movie, “Babygirl.” She donned a fitting pink and white gown to match the carpet, with the floral appliqués adding some flair to the strapless piece. The actor showed that big cutouts and risqué silhouettes weren’t the only ways to make a bold fashion statement. All she needed were some delicate floral appliqués in pretty pastel shades to make heads turn at the L.A. premiere.

According to her stylist’s Instagram post, the gown was from Balenciaga. Jason Bolden was the one behind her soft yet eye-catching look. The star’s gown was strapless and featured a satin belt at her waist that was tied into a bow. The belt helped provide some structure to the gown, with the floral piece hugging Kidman’s curves. She kept her accessories to a minimum, opting for tiny earrings and a dainty wristwatch to complete the look.

The actor looked heavenly in the custom Balenciaga gown, complete with a small train. Adir Abergel worked on her hair to further enhance the soft look Kidman was going for. They simply tied her hair into a loose ponytail. The front section of her hair was parted down the middle, with some wavy locks of hair framing her face beautifully.

For makeup, MUA Kate Synnott did their magic. On Instagram, Synnott dropped the exact products they used to create the makeup look. Continuing the pink theme, they went with a matching blush to add a pop of color to the actor’s cheeks. However, they opted for a pale pink lip shade to keep her lip makeup more modest. In addition, they accentuated Kidman’s eyes with a subtle winged liner and lots of mascara, with some fake lashes perfectly finishing the look.

Bold slashes along the backless gown exposed Nicole Kidman’s toned shoulders, adding an elegant touch to the look. The twisted neckline with a bedazzled collar wrapped around her neck and dipped into a low-cut back, adding a sultry touch.

The Australian actor wore her long sandy blonde hair in a middle-parted style, exuding an effortless look. As for her makeup, Kidman opted for warmer shades of color for her glitz. She highlighted her features with firm brows, dark lashes, and a soft peach color that warmed up her lips and cheeks. The actress kept her jewellery to a minimal, which adds up to the look.

Nicole Kidman is welcoming the upcoming holiday season with her recent outfit. For her attendance at the 2024 GQ Men of the Year Awards, the actor donned a Christmasy red skintight Balenciaga gown that featured a dramatic back design. One can always count on Kidman to opt for unconventional fashion choices and look equally stunning. While her most recent look on the red carpet may seem simple at first, it was the unique back design that sneakily brought all the drama into the red ensemble. 

Nicole Kidman opts for bright red Balenciaga gown for GQ Men of the Year Awards 2024

Nicole Kidman knows how to surprise the audience with her extraordinary style. Over the years, the actor has successfully captured the eye of fashion enthusiasts. Most recently, she achieved the effect with her red Balenciaga gown for the GQ Men of the Year 2024 Awards. Kidman wore a floor-length skintight ensemble that almost matched the red carpet. The full-sleeve gown boasted a turtleneck and a smooth fabric that preserved the elegance of the outfit.

However, all eyes were fixated on the gown’s back design. According to PEOPLE, Nicole Kidman’s red Balenciaga gown featured a distinctive back with a laced-up corset detailing from top to bottom. It added a sultry touch to the ensemble while keeping it chic. Furthermore, the corset-like structure in the back extended to a long ribbon that the actor held on to while posing for cameras on the red carpet.

The “Babygirl” star’s Balenciaga ensemble spoke volumes, so much so that it didn’t require her to put on heavy accessories. Kidman completed the look with matching red pumps and platinum rings. She let her blonde hair open in waves and brought a bold glam game with a dark red lip, arched eyebrows, and blush.

Meanwhile, Nicole Kidman’s red Balenciaga gown is reminiscent of a previous outfit from the Spanish luxury fashion house. In early October, Kidman wore an all-black Balenciaga outfit for Paris Fashion Week. This ensemble also featured a turtleneck and a corset structure at the back with ribbons. She accessorized this look with cat-eye sunglasses, luxurious jewelry, and a handbag.
