Nicole Kidman has always been the epitome of elegance and although she may not have won the Oscar for Best Actress in a Leading Role category for her portrayal of Lucille Ball in Being the Ricardos, she was definitely a winner on the red carpet.

Not only was her gown spectacular but the color was custom designed especially for her. “I really wanted to wear blue, so they made this color,” she told Laverne Cox. “I love the color.”

And so do we. Her gown compliments her statuesque figure, with its form-fitting design, accentuated with a peplum skirt, complete with an exaggerated bow and train embellished with gold crystals.

We loved the intricate Harry Winston diamond choker which accentuated the butterfly-winged neckline design of her dusty blue gown.

The look was finished off with a signature updo and simple make-up bar her that classic red lipstick she manages to pull off with such ease. We must say that Nicole’s stylist, Julia von Boehm has outdone herself this year.

In November 2014, Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban had been married for eight years, and they still continued to show the world how much they are in love with each other.

The two put on a public display of affection in front of awaiting fans as they arrived at the Odeon Leicester Square in London for the world premiere of ‘Paddington’.

Despite the height advantage, not to mention the towering shoes she wore at the event, Nicole exerted an effort and bowed down a little to give her husband a kiss on the lips.

Keith must have fallen in love with Nicole even more seeing her in a crystal-embellished Prada dress, which also featured sheer sleeves and a neckline.

While it’s not the most sophisticated outfit she has ever worn, we thought it was playful enough and perfect for the premiere of the movie, which is based on a children’s literature character created by Michael Bond, Paddington Bear.

The then 47-year-old actress shielded herself from the rain with a clear umbrella, which also protected her retro-looking curled updo!

Is it just me, or does this entire look also remind you of Mary Poppins?

Completing Nicole’s outfit was her pair of Christian Louboutin “Allegra” sandal booties, which gave her an additional height of about 4.7 inches.
