Nicole Kidmanknows how to take a fashion risk.
While in conversation withBaz LuhrmannforVogueAustralia’s June Issue, on newsstands Monday, the actress, 54, opened up about wearing the viral Miu Miu micro-mini skirt on the cover ofVanity Fair’s2022 Hollywood Issue.
Kidman told Luhrmann, 59, that she “showed up” on the set of the photoshoot, andVanity Fairhad a different outfit picked out for her to wear. But then she saw the Miu Miu attire and asked if it was an option. “I was like, ‘No, no, I like this one! Am I allowed to wear that?’ " she recalled.
The question, theBewitchedstar explained, caused stylistKatie Grand— who Kidman described as “fantastic” — to make sure she heard the star correctly.
“Katie was like ‘You’re willing to wear that?!’ And I said, ‘Wear it?! I’m begging you to wear it!’ " Kidman revealed.

The pair also mused about Nashville, Tennessee, the city where Luhrmann filmed the upcomingElvisbiopic, and where Kidman lives with husbandKeith Urbanand their two daughters.
