Nicole Kidman makes a grand entrance at the 49th AFI Life Achievement Award Gala

Nicole Kidman graced the 49th AFI Life Achievement Award Gala at Hollywood’s Dolby Theatre, where she was honoured as the 2024 recipient of the prestigious award. The 46-year-old Oscar winner attended the annual event by the American Film Institute on Saturday, April 27, accompanied by her husband Keith Urban and their daughters Sunday, 15, and Faith, 13.

Looking absolutely regal, the actress graced the red carpet in a custom gold sequin gown from Balenciaga's Fall '24 collection. The stunning outfit had a long train made from the same material.

To accessorise, she opted for black pumps, diamond-studded earrings and a matching bracelet. She styled her blonde hair in a side part with loose tresses framing her face from one side.
