Nicole Kidman Says Goodbye to Her Met Gala Bob Haircut in Architectural Monse Look for 2025 ACM Awards With Keith Urban
Nicole Kidman's bob era was short-lived. A few days after her Met Gala appearance, the actress debuted a new long, straight hairstyle at the 2025 Academy of Country Music Awards on Thursday, while there to support her husband, Keith Urban.
Kidman wore an architectural look from Monse's fall 2025 ready-to-wear collection. Her outfit featured a sleeveless black leather top with a high neckline and subtle paneling. The armor-like top was paired with black tailored trousers, layered with an asymmetric, draped skirt overlay. Classic black pumps completed the outfit.

Jason Bolden styled Kidman for the occasion. Bolden has been working with Kidman for years and was also responsible for her 2025 Met Gala look. At Monday's event, the actress wore a re-creation of a 1950s couture gown by Cristóbal Balenciaga, created by Balenciaga's current creative director, Demna. At the event, Kidman also sported a blond slicked-back bob created by hairstylist Adir Abergel.
'The inspiration was a tailored short cut that brought out the essence of dandyism on Nicole Kidman. I wanted to celebrate this year's theme by honoring the dandies and their individuality, elegance and confidence — where every detail is tailored to that unique person,' Abergel wrote on Instagram.
At the 2025 ACM Awards, Urban coordinated with his wife in a velvety, black suit. The country singer received the honorary ACM Triple Crown Award.
'My wife, Nicole Mary, is here tonight. I love you, babygirl. And our girls Sunday and Faith watching at home tonight, I love you both, too,' Urban said during his acceptance speech, nodding to Kidman's recent movie, 'Babygirl.'
