Nicole Kidman Makes Stunning Emmy Return in Chanel Gown After Nine Years

“Margo’s Got Money Troubles” features Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer and Nick Offerman, with Kidman also appearing in the series as Lace, a former professional wrestler.
Chanel said Kidman’s white dress was made from wool crepe and decorated with 46 flowers crafted from layered silk crepe, silk organza and raffia; she completed the look with Chanel shoes and jewelry.
Kidman’s 2017 Emmy acceptance speech centered on her family: she thanked Keith Urban and said she wanted their daughters, Sunday Rose and Faith, to understand that missed bedtime moments were connected to her work.
The Emmy appearance followed Kidman’s promotional run for “Practical Magic 2,” during which she adopted witch-inspired styling, including black lace looks tied to her character Gillian Owens; she also attended the U.S. Open with her younger daughter Faith Margaret in Chanel.
Julia Garner’s silver Emmy look followed a pre-ceremony dinner appearance in a navy top and dark trousers. Her upcoming Netflix role as Caroline Ellison required an extensive transformation involving a wig, colored contacts, false teeth, a prosthetic nose and thick glasses.
Nicole Kidman returned to the Emmy Awards after nine years away, lighting up the 2026 red carpet in a dramatic white Chanel gown. The custom dress featured 46 hand-crafted silk flowers and feathered detailing with a thigh-high slit. Yahoo reported that Kidman attended as both an actress and executive producer of Apple TV+'s "Margo's Got Money Troubles," which earned a nomination for Outstanding Comedy Series.
Her last Emmy appearance was in 2017, when UK Head Topics notes she won Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for "Big Little Lies." At that ceremony, Kidman thanked her husband Keith Urban and spoke about balancing her career with motherhood, saying she wanted their daughters to understand her missed bedtime moments connected to her work.

The dress also featured dramatic feathered trim and a thigh-high slit that dominated the red carpet photos. She completed the look with Chanel shoes and jewelry.
The gown marked her first major red carpet appearance in months following a promotional tour for "Practical Magic 2." Marie Claire Australia noted that Kidman had adopted witch-inspired styling for those appearances, wearing black lace looks tied to her character Gillian Owens.
"Margo's Got Money Troubles" brings together an impressive ensemble cast. The Apple TV+ series features Elle Fanning, Michelle Pfeiffer, and Nick Offerman. Yahoo reported that Kidman also appears in the show as Lace, a former professional wrestler. The series earned its Outstanding Comedy Series nomination at the 2026 Emmys.
Julia Garner turned heads at the ceremony wearing a shimmering silver gown with platinum blonde hair styled in a pixie cut. SSB Crack News reported that her look drew inspiration from Hollywood's Golden Age era. She also appeared at a pre-ceremony dinner in a navy top and dark trousers before taking the stage as an Emmy presenter.
Garner's upcoming Netflix role as Caroline Ellison will require a dramatic physical transformation. The role demands a wig, colored contacts, false teeth, a prosthetic nose, and thick glasses—a complete departure from her Emmy red carpet glamour.
