Oscar-winning actress Nicole Kidman has officially become the latest Nicole Kidman Chanel ambassador, marking her return to the prestigious fashion house at Matthieu Blazy’s debut show in Paris. Joined by her daughters Sunday and Faith, Kidman appeared poised and confident, embodying elegance amid personal change.
This significant moment arrives as Kidman navigates her recent divorce from country singer Keith Urban, maintaining her professional commitments with quiet strength. Her presence at Chanel’s iconic fashion event underscores her enduring relationship with the brand and highlights her resilience in both career and personal life.
Nicole Kidman Embraces Chanel’s New Direction
Kidman expressed enthusiasm for working with Matthieu Blazy, the newly appointed creative director of Chanel. Speaking to WWD, she shared her admiration for the fashion house’s legacy and vision.
“As someone who has such an appreciation for haute couture, I am so looking forward to witnessing Matthieu’s vision for the oldest haute couture house still in operation,”
Kidman stated. She added,
“Chanel has always been ahead of the curve, shining a smart and gracious light on women, and I am sure Matthieu will be no exception, just like Karl did in his time.”
Her comments reflect a deep respect for Chanel’s history and its role in defining sophisticated femininity. With Blazy stepping into the role once held by Karl Lagerfeld, Kidman’s endorsement signals confidence in the brand’s future.
Managing Career Commitments Amid Personal Transition
Despite undergoing a major life change, Kidman is fully committed to her professional responsibilities. A source close to the actress told People magazine that both Kidman and Keith Urban are focusing on honoring their work commitments during this period.
“Nicole is honoring her work commitments, as is Keith,”
the insider revealed.
Kidman’s association with Chanel extends back two decades. In 2003, she became the face of the Chanel No. 5 perfume campaign and starred in a cinematic short directed by Baz Luhrmann, featuring Rodrigo Santoro. This long-standing partnership resurged on the red carpet at the 2023 Met Gala, where Kidman wore the same blush-pink tulle gown from the original Chanel No. 5 campaign, demonstrating a powerful circle of fashion and film collaboration.
Reflecting on this iconic gown, Kidman told La La Anthony,
“This dress was worn in the Chanel No. 5 commercial that Baz Luhrmann and I did with Karl, who concocted this out of his head.”
The dress, notable for its 250 pink feathers, 3,000 sequins, and four-meter train, showcased an enduring symbol of glamour when she paired it with a black hair bow and platinum-set diamond chandelier earrings.
