The red carpet blossomed
with spring colors as stars donned ladylike gowns for Sunday's Golden
Globe Awards ,
with
one glittery exception: Nicole Kidman in a
backless, cut-down-to-there gold sequin dress.
The "Cold Mountain" star stood out among the pretty
pastel dresses and safe black gowns at the 61st annual awards show in
Beverly Hills, Calif.
Kidman's gold sequin bodice, with a neckline that
plunged to her waist, was held together with nude fabric and paired with
a flowing, pale chiffon skirt. Her loose curls were held back with a
gold headband.
"I need a coat, though," Kidman told Joan Rivers on E!
Entertainment Television. "I sort of like that it's got a sort of slight
Salome feel to it."
Kidman's gown, designed by Tom Ford in his last
collection for Yves Saint Laurent, will likely be the most-talked-about
dress of the evening, said Kevin Lennox, associate fashion editor for
Glamour magazine.
"I like her for wearing what she's wearing," Lennox
said. "She's like 6 feet tall or something and 10 pounds. It's great
that she takes chances and doesn't just do the run-of-the-mill."
The other surprise of the evening was
presenter Jennifer Lopez, who wasn't expected to appear on
the red carpet. Days after her breakup with fiance Ben Affleck was
announced, Lopez strolled by fans appearing effortlessly chic in a
tangerine goddess gown with silver straps, her hair pulled up in a loose
ponytail.
"It looked very pretty on her. Sometimes she doesn't
play up the pretty softer side of her, she wears harsher things," Lennox
said.
