And I think when you grow up seeing the people in your household do that, then you love that.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Even in the present day, Kidman said she enjoys involving her mother in her dressing process for events. The devoted mother and wife has also often commented on her enduring affinity for fashion, noting to the Hollywood Reporter: \u201cI\u2019ve always been drawn to fashion, mainly classic lines with a twist; but edginess is something I don\u2019t shy away from.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reflecting on her early days in the United States, Kidman considers herself to have been very fortunate in the fashion industry, especially because she was able to establish connections with designers who became her friends at a young age.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Talented actress Nicole Kidman, 56, recently set the online sphere abuzz with her choice of attire at the Prime Video premiere of her series Expats.
