Nicole Kidman knows how to make a fashion impression, as she did when she hit the red carpet wearing florals for her latest film, A24’s erotic thriller Babygirl. Her latest ensemble for the Palm Springs Film Awards proves that once again. The Big Little Lies star brought a bold and dazzling look to the event, combining elements of a delicate corset with a metallic armor-inspired twist. The result? A statement that’s equal parts ethereal elegance and fierce power—a perfectly unique look that reflects the Far and Away star’s screen presence.
The award-winning actress took to her Instagram, sharing a head-turning shimmering metallic corset-style bodice paired with a sleek, flowing skirt that balanced the outfit’s structured top half. Her outfit exuded softness and strength, an almost modern warrior vibe fitting for one of Hollywood’s most versatile talents. Kidman’s photos, which you can see embedded below, were accompanied by a heartfelt message thanking her Babygirl co-star Jamie Lee Curtis and the Palm Springs Film Festival team:
The Oscar winner’s Medieval meets “Midnights” ensemble is the latest in her long history of delivering fashion masterclasses in contrasting styles. The Bewitched actress has long cemented her status as a high-fashion icon, consistently wowing fans with her bold and breathtaking looks.
Over the years, the Lioness star has stunned in everything from a liquid-like backless dress to a dazzling black gown that felt like a dream brought to life. Let’s not forget her unforgettable nude corset dress or her fearless embrace of the naked dress trend for a magazine spread that had everyone talking. She continues to prove that she’s always ahead of the game when it comes to red carpet style.
Nicole Kidman’s Instagram followers couldn’t get enough of the metallic armor corset, with fans and influencers flooding the comments to praise the outfit and her undeniable elegance. One commenter, the actor and rapper Page Kennedy, summed it up perfectly:
