Nicole Kidman dazzled in gold as she posed for an impromptu backyard photoshoot before she was honoured at AFI Life Achievement Award gala.
The Big Little Lies star, 56, was recognised at the American Film Institute’s Life Achievement Award gala in Los Angele on Saturday night.
Ahead of the ceremony, Nicole shared a photo of herself posing in front of a backyard swimming pool while showing off her dramatic look in the sunshine.
Her sleeveless dress accentuated her figure, featuring a five-foot train that draped behind her on the red carpet.

The Australian actress raved the AFI honour was ‘beyond my wildest dreams’ when she was announced as the recipient last weekend.
‘Receiving this award fills me with overwhelming gratitude,’ she wrote at the time. ‘To be the first Australian to be honoured in this way leaves me speechless.
Kidman added, ‘I grew up as a Sydney suburban girl who just wanted to act; to have forged a career by doing what I love is a blessing beyond my dreams. I thank the AFI for this amazing honour.’
