Australian actor Nicole Kidman has donned a Rita Hayworth-inspired Hollywood gown, stealing the show at this year’s Vogue World event just weeks after filing for divorce from husband Keith Urban.<\/a><\/p>\n

Kidman, alongside director Baz Luhrmann, opened and closed the fourth annual Vogue event at Paramount Studios in Los Angeles.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The fashion and culture event is part runway show, part concert, with a theme usually related to its location.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Previous years have seen actors, models and sports stars descend on cities like Paris, New York and London for Vogue World.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Last year’s event in Paris, which was also the host city for the 2024 Olympics, saw fashion houses pair with a sport and an era to create athletic-inspired looks.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here is what this year’s event was all about.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Merging fashion with Hollywood<\/p>\n

The event was split into seven acts, each celebrating a different era of Hollywood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For every act, a celebrated Hollywood costume designer would be in charge of the outfits, working with a fashion house’s creative director.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The first act was entitled Hollywood Glamour, with Australian costume designer Catherine Martin in charge of the looks.<\/p>\n

Models and celebrities strutted down the runway dressed in costumes paying homage to films like Moulin Rouge!, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and Gilda.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Nicole Kidman opened the show in a black gown much like the one worn by Rita Hayworth in the film Gilda, while taking direction from fellow Aussie and frequent collaborator, director Baz Luhrmann.\u00a0<\/p>\n

She was followed down the runway by Kendall Jenner in a sparkly dress and top hat, similar to the costume worn by Kidman in the film Moulin Rouge.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Other acts were titled Afrofuturism, Avant-Garde, Summer of Love, Historical Heroines and The Renegades.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Afrofuturism was designed by Black Panther’s Oscar-winning costume designer, Ruth E Carter, working with Balmain, and featured costumes from Malcolm X and Black Panther.\u00a0<\/p>\n

For the Renegades section, films Edward Scissorhands, The Matrix, Everything Everywhere All at Once, The Royal Tenenbaums, and Desperately Seeking Susan were celebrated by costume designer Colleen Atwood.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Men’s fashion was also on show with Jeff Goldblum and Kyle MacLachlan proving there is far more out there than a classic tuxedo.\u00a0<\/p>\n

More looks off the runway<\/p>\n

Much like a fashion week runway show, the outfits of actors, singers, socialites and sporting stars watching on were a spectacle of their own.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Here’s what they wore.\u00a0<\/p>\n
