When we think of Nicole Kidman’s red carpet looks, we almost always think of floral designs, sequins, simple silhouettes, and ballroom cuts.
However, the Australian actress confused the world with her fashion choices at the “Being The Ricardos” premiere in December 2021.
A Bold Chanel Dress with Black Bow Accents
For the premiere of Being the Ricardos, Nicole Kidman opted for elegance in white while adding a dash of black details. Once again, she proved that this color combo works perfectly and looks fantastic at formal events.

She arrived in a long-sleeved, draped white satin dress from Chanel’s Fall 2021 Couture collection, exuding understated elegance. The design featured two striking black bows at the hips, subtly drawing attention to her silhouette and enhancing the dress’s structured yet feminine shape.

Planetarily popular actress Nicole Kidman is considered a fashion icon and almost always shines on and off the red carpet. She emphasized her signature red hair for the premiere by wearing a black bow barrette.
A Polarizing Look That Sparked Debate
However, opinions were divided immediately after the photos of Nicole Kidman’s newest look went viral. Many people didn’t like her outfit because it made her look pale and washed out. Perhaps she should have added a few more black details.

As Nicole has quite a pale tan, more black details would have broken down the monotony of this look.
Javier Bardem’s Stylish Appearance at the Premiere
On the other hand, Javier Bardem arrived at the premiere in a burgundy jacket, a white shirt without a tie, and black pants and shoes. If you ask us, these two matched and looked fantastic!
Actors Nicole Kidman and Javier Bardem appeared with the rest of their co-stars at the premiere of “Being The Ricardos” in New York.
In this bibliographical drama, Nicole plays the iconic American comedian Lucille Désirée Ball, and Javier portrays Cuban-American actor Desi Arnaz. The Oscar-winning actress considered dropping out of the movie following the backlash surrounding her casting.
