Nicole Kidman graced the Met Gala red carpet in a breathtaking Balenciaga gown that demanded attention. Her accompanying hair and makeup ensemble played a supporting role, enhancing her overall radiance. Hairstylist focused on reimagining Mr. Balenciaga’s vision through Demna’s hands, creating a voluminous blowout with a slight bend at the ends. Abergel sought to pay homage to the past while celebrating the present, drawing inspiration from the vintage volume of the 1950s while adding a modern touch of irregular wave patterns.
To achieve this look, Abergel meticulously prepped Kidman’s hair with heat protectant, creating height at the crown and face with a middle parting. For added dimension, length, and body, Adir seamlessly integrated extensions around the front of Kidman’s face, shaping them into asymmetric waves using a curling iron.
Makeup artist utilized her own product line to accentuate Kidman’s natural beauty. Rosy cheeks were achieved with a swipe of blush, while the dramatic feline flick was created with a precision eyeliner. For the perfect nude lip, it was all about her signature lip product.
Nicole Kidman’s effortlessly undone film star look allowed her dress to command the spotlight, but her radiant glow and impeccable hair and makeup left an unforgettable impression on fashion’s biggest night out.
