Nicole Kidman was sure to turn heads on Friday as she donned a showstopping outfit for the premiere of her new movie Babygirl during the 81st Venice International Film Festival.
The actress, 57, stunned in a dramatic ɴuᴅᴇ corset top and a black velvet skirt as she walked the red carpet at the glitzy event.
Nicole’s intricately embellished top by Schiaparelli featured high tulle panels and gorgeous fridge beading, while the boning of the corset cinched her in at her narrow waist.
The Australian beauty finished her look with pearl drop earrings and black, suede heels, with Nicole’s features highlighted with a light and dewy make-up palette.
Nicole oozed confidence on the red carpet despite recently admitting she felt ‘vulnerable’ filming the intimate Sєx scenes, noting that she didn’t feel ‘brave’ enough to watch her own film.

In Babygirl, Nicole stars as a high-powered New York business executive who starts a risky affair with her much-younger intern, played by Harris Dickinson.
She admitted she felt ‘vulnerable’ filming multiple scenes of masturbation, plus a depiction of a submissive/dominant relationship for the erotic new thriller.
Rising British star Harris Dickinson has a career-making turn as Samuel, the intern who intuits that his boss Kidman, the CEO of a tech firm, wants to be dominated.
Nicole has made nothing like it since the dream-like erotic thriller Eyes Wide Shut with then-husband Tom Cruise 25 years ago.
She said that an intimacy co-ordinator and closed set had been vital to conjuring the Sєx scenes which tell the story of her character’s existential crisis, resolved through a taboo-busting Sєxual odyssey.
The actress said: ‘I think this film is obviously yes about Sєx, but it’s about desire it’s about your inner thoughts, it’s about secrets, it’s about marriage, it’s about truth, power, consent.
‘This is one woman’s story and this is I hope a very liberating story. It’s told by a woman through her gaze. It’s Halina (Reijn’s) script, she wrote it and she directs and that made it unique, that suddenly I was going to be in the hands of a woman with this material. It was very dear to our shared instincts and very, very freeing.’
She added: ‘I don’t think there’s a judgement attached (about the character). It’s for each person to react to Romy and the way she behaves. My connection to it is that I want to examine human beings, women, on screen, to explore what it means to be human in all the facets of that and the labyrinth of that.’
