    Stunning. That color and silhouette are killer on her. And happy to see a Manolo for a change!

  • snarkmeister

    It’s bright, but I like it!  Cute shoes, too.

    Do not like the hair.

    • snarkmeister

      Agreed.  I used to do that shit to my hair when I was in grade school in the 80s.  Instead of glittery rhinestones on our barrettes, we had ribbons woven through them.  And plastic beads.

      • cluecat

        Yes!  I made a special one for the prom in pink and white to match my princess dress.  (Back when it was “the” prom, somewhere along the way it lost an article.)

    Dress is cute, but she should have done something softer with her hair. With it pulled back on the sides and in front like that, it’s making her face look tighter than usual.

    I wanna be her when I grow up.

    I don’t like the lipstick or the hair, it’s weird

  • michelle shields

    She looks great! Two thumbs up!

  • mommyca

    That hair is somehow too severe for her, she should leave it to Diane Kruger…

    I like the overall look, but that is some color.  She could go deer hunting in that thing.

  • Spreecord

    A look so “meh” I can barely summon the energy to yawn. Happy to see something other than Choos or Louboutins on someone’s feet, though.

    As a 6 foot woman who is afraid to wear heels for fear others will think I’m a drag queen, I would love to attend a Hollywood party where the tall chicks (Nicole, Charlize) and model girlfriends (Rosie Huntley) are rocking the 5 inch heels. I’d feel so happy and comfortable and would wear tall shoes too!

    • MilaXX

       My tall friends wear their heels proudly. I say , “Rock your heels sistah!”

    • schadenfreudelicious

      wear the heels!!, i am 5’10″ and never shied away from a five inch heel! :)

    • TheOriginalLulu

      Wear them! Tall, long-legged women should definitely not be afraid of wearing heels!
      One thing, though: stand up straight. No slouching!

  • Sara LaBatt

    I think she looks great.  Great color dress but it almost looks photoshopped in it’s so bright (could be my monitor).  The high neckline sort of makes her boobs look like they are in a weird place in the first shot.  Agree that the hair isn’t the best.  And clearly I’ve been brainwashed because the shot of the Manolos made them look like a low heel compared to what the kids are wearing these days!

  • MilaXX

    I think this is a very pretty look In particular I’d like to applaud her for not wearing a pair of silly putty pumps.

  • Clueless_Jock

    Wow. Amazing.

  • kelsita421

    so harsh! my eyes!

    Stunning

  • Sara__B

    First impression: Perfect! Upon closer inspection: The hairstyle isn’t the best, but she still looks fabulous.

    I love how Nicole is never trashy or crazy when she goes out to RC events. She almost always looks put together, clean, and lovely. Also, I love that she’s reverting more to her natural hair color because it suits her so well!

  • marilyn

    Very smart and sophisticated.  Great color and she knew not to cover the dress with jewelry and loud accessories.  Brava!!

  • http://pulse.yahoo.com/_ENBX3563Q4ZNCVRGSJVFIB7OAA Thom

    Willowy, WASP-y Hamptons realness: it works well for her.

  • SaraLeighM

    She needs to stop frowning.

  • Judy_J

    I wish all I had to do was stand around looking gorgeous in designer clothes.

  • AlexisPayne

    Love this look, but she shouldn’t do that with her hair

  • Lina_bee

    Pretty, if a little tight. OTOH, if it were any looser, it would ping me as a “ladies who lunch” dress.  She does wear orange well, though, and I love a good orange dress.

  • belfebe

    You go Nicole Kidman!  Show them how it’s done!  Perfection!

    Beautiful color.  Only thing that’s bugging me is the neckline…looks kind of weird.

    Beautiful color and the fit of the dress is heavenly on her. Not in love with the hair.

  • http://twitter.com/MandySCG MandyJane

    Love the dress and shoes, hate the hair. She has a face that cries for bangs. 

  • http://twitter.com/delysia_lafosse Delysia LaFosse

    Simple but gorgeous. She is killing it lately.

  • bluefish

    Great fit and a wowza color on her.  Never a fan of hairclips so near the ears while wearing earrings.  Manolo B is presenting some very good looking and feminine sandals — a blessed relief!

  • http://twitter.com/crush_onyou crush on you

    Kudos for going against the platform trend; this is certainly much better for her style. Those pictured are not the shoes she’s wearing in the first shot, though… I do think she looks beautiful and put together, which is the look she always goes for. She can do this in her sleep. So, a little boring, but beautiful anyway.

  • http://twitter.com/PhDKnitter marlie

    Gorgeous! A really great look for the daytime.

  • Warrior89

    The dress and shoes are fabulous.  Hair is eww, and I can’t stand her face.  

  • SusiePamudji

    Chic as hell. Perfect photocall look.

  • TSkot

    THIS is a movie star.  Brava!

  • nannypoo

    The lipstick color is an odd choice and I hate her hair. The dress and shoes are perfect.

  • TieDye64

    POW! Color punch! I almost need to put on my shades to look at it, but I really dig this.

    Did the fashion design community forget how to cut an armhole?

  • guest2visits

    Just another gorgeous dress for Nicole. The photographers make me wonder what the back of the dress is like.

  • lifetime_student

    Now THAT is how you do a photo call.

  • ThaliaMenninger

    Fabulous. Best thing she ever did was get rid of Tom Cruise.

  • MzzPants

    Hot.

  • Allison Woods

    Did you lads do some weird Photoshop thing in the first picture with the dress?

    Otherwise, for me, nearly a WErk.

    Damn it Nicole, fuck it up for us, just once. Please?

  • StrandedFashionista

    Stunning. She looks SOOOO tall in the first photo. 

  • Jennifer Hofstetter

    She’s a knockout here. It’s kind of boring, but she makes it striking.

  • jmorino08

    I love this color on her, but why has her hair been so wonky at Cannes this year? She’s got gorgeous hair, but they keep pulling it back in weird half styles!

  • http://twitter.com/hurricaneemilyy Emily Shaver

    FINALLY SOME SUMMER DRESSES ON CELEBRITIES. Sweetie you are fucking rocking that simple silhouette and the color is fab. You hair looks fantastic, especially in contrast to the dress. Ugh. Darling, you are a diva supreme. 

  • carolynmo

    Fabulous dress! Want it! I’m not loving the hair.

    Thank you for being a redhead again, Nicole!
