Nicole Kidman's Victoria Secrets look is unexpected alongside lingerie-clad models

While many stars grace the Victoria's Secret fashion show in lingerie-inspired ensembles or bedazzled naked dresses, Nicole Kidman opted for a different approach to her sartorial agenda.

The actress graced the event on October 18 in a sleek suited look by Jean Paul Gaultier. The ensemble was plucked from the brand's fall 2026 ready-to-wear collection. It consisted of a crisp white button-down collared shirt tucked into a high-waisted black pencil skirt accented with garter-inspired detailing. The outfit was completed with a black and pink striped tie and a burgundy Chanel bag.

Nicole's blonde locks were styled into soft waves with face-framing curtain bangs while her makeup oozed glam, courtesy of a bronze eye, a rosy cheek, and a pink lip.

Nicole was spotted smiling as models graced the runway to Adéla’s hit song, "Nicole Kidman," which is a reference to the actress. The star is a big fan of the Slovak pop singer, who rose to fame on the 2023 reality series Dream Academy. In a viral clip shared on social media from the Practical Magic sequel premiere in London, Nicole was asked if knew who Adéla was. "Oh, yes! She is! I do know!" she replied.

"I can’t believe Nicole Kidman knows who I am," Adéla told Pop Crave following the video. "To get the recognition from the person that you wrote the song about, and it being not just any person, it’s Nicole Kidman. Like, she’s a legend."

Victoria’s Secret brought back its famed Fantasy Bra for the 2026 show – modeled by Kylie Jenner – alongside vibrant runway looks worn by Adriana Lima, Alessandra Ambrosio, Candice Swanepoel, Gigi and Bella Hadid, Anok Yai, and Alex Consani. The star-studded event also featured live performances by Megan Thee Stallion, Tate McRae, Megan Moroney, and Katseye.

"I wanted this to be bigger and bolder than last year, and we couldn’t find a space in New York that could house all the things that we wanted to do," Adam Selman EVP, chief creative officer Victoria’s secret & PINK told PEOPLE. "It was a fun new challenge of like, okay, this is a different side of Americana and this sort of idea of the American dream, and I’m calling this year Fandemonium."

"There’s going to be some unexpected people up in the mix, which is going to be fun. It’s that idea of Fandemonium. So if the fans have been asking for it, the goal is to try to make it happen. I’m going to plant those seeds too and see if they pick up on that."
