This was the hottest night of La Mostra

The Lido Film Palace has opened its doors for the third consecutive night to present a new film that is vying for the Golden Lion at La Mostra: Babygirl. The film, directed by Halina Reijn, is one of the most daring and erotic of the festival and stars Antonio Banderaswho attended the premiere with his girlfriend, Nicole Kimpely Nicole KidmanThe Australian actress has conquered the red carpet with a magnificent look by Schiaparelli.

From the Haute Couture collection, the model was made up of two parts: a long, smooth black skirt combined with an architecturally structured bodice that highlighted the star’s extremely narrow waist. With a starry print on a nude background, the piece stood out for its voluminous neckline and the beaded appliqués that hung like fringes and offered a completely mesmerizing effect. A risky, sexy and very sophisticated design that has catapulted Kidman into the Top 3 of the Best Dressed at La Mostra. And that’s despite Cate Blanchett making things really difficult for her colleagues…

The scenes of deep affection between Tom Cruise’s ex and the film’s director, Halina Reijn, known for the crime comedy, have not gone unnoticed. Deaths, Deaths, Deaths (2022). Babygirl, which is nominated for the Golden Lion, tells the story of a high-ranking executive who puts both her career and her marriage at risk by embarking on a forbidden romance with an intern at her company: “It’s a story about sex, desire, marriage, truth, power and consent,” said the actress at the press conference: “It’s told through a woman’s eyes and that’s what makes it so unique. Making it was liberating for me.”

Antonio Banderas is Kidman’s husband in BabygirlThe Malaga native exuded grace and charm on the red carpet in a classic black suit and yellow glasses. He was accompanied by his girlfriend, Nidole Kimpel, who opted for a double-layered red design with a single crossed strap and anchored to the chest with a gold rosette. A simple but very elegant choice.
