Nicole Kidman looked sensational when she took to the red carpet at the Nokia Theatre L.A. Live on Sunday evening for the 2012 Emmy Awards.
The Australian actress wore an Antonio Berardi Spring 2013 gown, which was presented exactly a week ago during London Fashion Week. Now that’s what you call fast fashion.
Her white column dress which striking blue sequin embroidered details was worn without the matching bolero we saw on the runway, to reveal a sleek sleeveless look.
Peacock-blue Christian Louboutin ‘Vampanodo’ sandals with a bow accent on the heel and Fred Leighton carved lavender jade-and-diamond pendant earrings completed her look.
This is one of Nicole’s best looks in a while. So good that I’m willing to overlook that very familiar center-parted hairstyle.

The hair is so 2002-2004 but the dress is amazing. Glad to see Antonio Berardi on the EMMY RC!
LOVE it, don´t mind the hair, it works well with the look, probably my favourite so far.
She looks nice, but I first saw this less than an hour ago and I’ve already forgotten it, and I can stil remember looks she wore in 2004 and 2005, she’s lost the magic she once had.
Stunning!! Loved this collection and it she looks amazing in this gown. BDOTW contender for me.
Wow! When I saw this dress on the runway I said “if I were a celebrity stylist I would be all over that gown!” Didn’t expect to see it this so soon though lol.
It misses for me and I can’t put my finger on why.
Maybe a clutch in her left hand?
I agree. I’m a bit befuddled…something about this glamourous, avant-garde look fall flat on her. If Zoe Saldana had worn it–or perhaps Cate Blanchett, with the shrug–I would have loved it. But Nicole isn’t selling it to me. I do love the dress, though.
I agree, something is missing.
i think the bodice should have left out the white (shoulders, etc) or she should have kept the jacket. the full bodice made it stepford, which made it nicole, which made it (at least lately) boring.
She looks gorgeous~ love the blue sequin details.
OMG she looks incredible! This has to be one of her best ever looks, and tbh I think this should go on BDOTY. She looks so statuesque and that beading is to die for! Love love love.
Stunning as usual! Effortless chic!
I think we have our best dressed – she is given us interesting fashion – So did Julianne it’s true but I think her dress didn’t suit her – this is refined even with the uninteresting hair she is best dressed
Her hair looks limp and lifeless as always but the dress is stunning on her.
I think the dress looks like it’s wearing her.
What.a.freaking.gown! It looks unbelievable.
Gorgeous! You are going to have to have a 4 part BDOTW with quarter finalists, semi’s & finals. I think the looks are amazing tonight!
I love this so classy **
I can’t believe people love this. The beading looks unfinished. Don’t like it. Don’t care for it.
She’s my favorite of the night. And I actually think the sleek hair works very well with the dress.
Yes, this is one of her best dresses in years. What a body! After Cannes, it seems she is in love with Antonio Berardi, good for her. Best dressed of night for me.
I think she looks amazing, the dress is pure perfection
She looks absolutely fabulous. Nicole carries herself in such a way that when she hits, she looks beyond incredible.
This is a great look for her
I think Nicole is one of the best of the night. I loved this gown on the runway and she looks stunning in it. I don’t really mind the hair and the shoes are a perfect choice.
Love the dress!! This is the best she has looked since Cannes, she looks gorgeous!
Stunning !
I love the dress but not wowed by Nicole in it here.
In one word, statuesque!
Best dressed of the night.
I absolutely love the dress, but Nicole looks so terribly stiff in it that I don’t like it on her. The hair is also not helping, it enhances even more the stiffness.
I love it when Nicole wears cool colors like this. Makes her look like an ice princess.
Love the dress, but I ALWAYS love Nicole. Her hair is lighter? Maybe it has been for sometime. I think it accentuates the blues in this dress really beautifully. I just like the crispness of the white with the beautiful blue tones with her hair and makeup.
The dress is lovely, but the straight blondish hair just isn’t working for her.
The dress is AMAZING!
nice but im not wowed by it, maybe if she had a little bit of attitude or even a better hairstyle it would be great.
i love it!
