Nicole Kidman and Keith Urban's daughters are as tall as them in must-see gowns for red carpet debut
Nicole Kidman enjoyed the most special of Hollywood nights yesterday evening, and she had husband Keith Urban, their family, and star-studded group of friends, by her side supporting her.
On Saturday, the actress was honored at the 49th American Film Institute Life Achievement Award Gala, at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles, an honor previously bestowed upon the likes of Julie Andrews, George Clooney, Jane Fonda, Diane Keaton, Al Pacino, Harrison Ford, and Barbra Streisand, among others.
And though the Urban-Kidman bunch has long kept their family life out of the spotlight, they made a just exception for the special night, and the couple's daughters made their official red carpet debut.
Nicole and Keith, who have been married since 2006 and split their time between Australia and Nashville, Tennessee, share two daughters, Sunday Rose, 15, and Faith Margaret, 13.
For their big moment in the spotlight, both of the Urban-Kidman girls donned Monique Lhuillier gowns – their mom stunned in a gold sequin Balenciaga dress – with Faith donning a white floral dress with a sweetheart neckline, while her younger sister wore a strapless red dress with a mermaid skirt.
