There's no denying the intricate detailing of this dress need be applauded, but if we break it all down (i.e. the ruffled cuffs and neckline, beaded sleeves and bodice, tulle overlay on the bodice, etc.) it's definitely a lot to take it. All at once.
The elegant back cutouts on the timeless silhouette are elegant and uber-feminine, but again we're seeing a ribboned trim, potentially velvet clamps, lots of bead work and then on top of the gorgeous skirt details, a cloud of tulle.
In true, Old Hollywood glam/Nicole Kidman style, her hair is perfectly pinned in a low bun with pulled out, lightly curled pieces making for a refined, gorgeous look. As per usual, her skin's glow is enviable, but thoughts on that lipstick shade? It's a packs a powerful color punch among such a neutral palette.
Her thin, ankle strap heels are just the right amount of dainty in a shade of subtle gold adding to the overall ethereal look.
We leave you with this close up of all the details on top and around the actress' waist. Is it busy to you or just pure genius?
