Two stars caught eyes on the red carpet Sunday at the Academy of Country Music awards in Las Vegas — but for entirely different reasons. Here’s a quick tale of two dresses.
LeAnn Rimes
The dress:
A blue Lanvin stunner (with Stella McCartney pumps)
The headline:
Rimes earned high marks for her dress, but her date Sunday was the real story. Rimes and boyfriend Eddie Cibrian laughed their way down the red carpet, but both were under heavy tabloid scrutiny. (They ended their respective marriages around the time it was revealed they were dating.)
Nicole Kidman
The dress:
A L’Wren Scott black wool minidress (with cutout leather boots)
The headline:
Without question it was her dress. You’ve partied in a tuxedo T-shirt. Now, behold the tuxedo minidress. Kidman, who looked as lovey-dovey as ever with her date, husband Keith Urban, proved she still knows how to take chances with her fashion — in this case, a James Bond-like chance.
