For years, Nicole Kidman, one of the leading red-carpet fashionistas, has never shied away from a risky outfit. Her wardrobe is a history of styles, from glamorous dressing gowns to some rather avant-garde ensembles. Even a veteran fashion star such as Nicole Kidman was not without some mistakes in a career that spanned her life; these vices were critiqued by her late mother, Janelle Ann Kidman.
Memorable Fashion Choices and Regrets
Nicole Kidman was also recently quoted explaining some of the worst appearances she has ever made at the award ceremony. In her interview she pointed to the particularly memorable dress she wore to the 2004 Golden Globes; the shimmering sequin gown with a mesh insert and matching scarf headband was memorable. Courageous and iconic, the outfit did not impress everyone not even her mother.
Of course, for such “fashion train wrecks,” Nicole Kidman has also provided many unforgettable scenes. The outstanding choices are her chartreuse Dior gown worn to the 1997 Golden Globe Awards and the gold Galliano gown worn to the 2000 Oscars. This is also true in the specifics of fashion aficionado that Renoir reflected in her love for suits and her treasured 24-karat gold vintage mesh gloves.
Remembering Her Mother’s Influence
Nicole Kidman’s mother died in September, and she was a very important person to her daughter: She always encouraged her to act and even to be a dress designer. However, there were numerous reviews for the fashion, and Janelle Ann Kidman thanked her daughter for her great work and films such as Rabbit Hole, The Paperboy, and The Hours.
A Legacy of Style
Constantly evolving as a person and an actress, Nicole Kidman appreciates her fashion heritage, and, hopefully, some of the dresses will be inherited by her daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith Margaret. Even if she does acknowledge her fashion failures in laughter, she remains a consistent symbol of Hollywood’s most glamorous and fashionable icons today.
