Nicole Kidman last night attended a panel talk to promote Expats, the prestige Prime drama in which she plays a privileged housewife haunted by terrible secrets. Squint, though, and the actress could have been in rehearsals for the next installment of Big Little Lies, in which she plays a privileged housewife haunted by terrible secrets.
That is because Kidman wore a cashmere fall 2024 Ferragamo two piece and croc-embossed Louboutins. Arms folded and face etched with subtle pride, this is the image of a woman watching her Instagram-cute twins from the sidelines of a private-school soccer match. The actor spent most of the show’s first two seasons in these comfortable knits–Chloé scarves and Max Mara cardigans and The Row turtlenecks–that juxtaposed the harsh realities of living in an abusive marriage, most often used to conceal painful bruises.
Earlier this week, Kidman sat down with co-star Reese Witherspoon and touched upon a potential third season of the HBO drama. “We’re moving fast and furious,” she said. “Liane [Moriarty] is delivering the book. We’re in good shape.” She continued: “There’s a whole thing about how you should never talk about something until you’ve done it. Because if you talk about doing it then it’s the dopamine hit of doing it and you feel like you’ve done it. It’s a scientific study.” I wonder if that research also touches on premature method-dressing.
