Nicole Kidman wore the sheer trend with elegance in an ethereal dress
Nicole Kidman delivered an elegant take on the sheer trend at the premiere for Netflix’s newest animated movie, Spellbound.
This week in New York City, Kidman stepped onto the premiere’s red carpet looking ethereal in a Dolce & Gabbana creation. The sweeping Alta Moda dress was made out of tulle illusion fabric, complete with swirling floral embroidery and ornate appliqué fabricated out of brocade, lace and macramé — all of which covered the entire length of the dress, from the long sleeves to the floor-grazing hemline.
Kidman accessorised the look sparingly, opting simply for a few bejewelled cocktail rings and a pair of black pointed-toe heels. Beauty-wise, she wore glowy bronze eyeshadow and styled her signature strawberry blonde hair in voluminous mermaid waves.
In Spellbound, Kidman stars opposite Rachel Zegler and Javier Bardem as the voice of Queen Ellsmere. The children’s musical follows the journey of Ellian, a princess on a mission to reverse a spell that transformed her parents into monsters.
“I was so honoured when they asked me [to sing in the movie],” Kidman said during a red-carpet interview on Thursday. “Obviously, Rachel has the most divine voice. So I was just like, ‘Oh no.’ … She was so nurturing and kind and encouraging as we went along. And with the composer being Alan [Menken] I was like, ‘I’m in. Just get me there, please.’”
She added, “Javier and I have a history together, so it was so nice to be able to re-team. It’s just fun to be doing so many different things.”
