Nicole Kidman celebrated the start of the 2025 awards season alongside her 16-year-old daughter Sunday Rose at W Magazine’s Annual Best Performances Party in Los Angeles.
The mother-daughter duo posed together at the annual event, which celebrated the year’s top talent, at the Chateau Marmont on Saturday, January 4. Kidman, 57, looked menswear chic in a blue shirt, oversized blazer and pants which she highlighted with a pair of pointed black heels. Sunday, meanwhile, rocked an embellished light blue two-piece with black tights. Both women wore their hair down in waves.
Kidman, who’s receiving rave reviews for her performance in 2024’s Babygirl, shares Sunday and daughter Faith, 14, with husband Keith Urban, whom she wed in 2006. (She is also mom to daughter Bella, 31, and son Connor, 29, whom she shares with ex Tom Cruise.)
“They raid my wardrobe all the time. I’m like, ‘Okay, what’s mine is yours,’” Kidman told W in their Best Performances issue, saying she boxed up all her red carpet dresses. “They’re museum pieces.”
She continued: “But I don’t raid their closet, even though I’m like, ‘Oh, that’s cute.’ But I’m not allowed to take anything. It’s a one-way exchange.”

Sunday recently made her runway debut at the spring/summer 2025 Miu Miu show during Paris Fashion Week in October. Kidman told E! News at the Lioness premiere later that month that she is “Incredibly proud and supportive” of her daughter’s pursuit of modeling.
“Just there for her. Just being a mom,” she added. “I was just like, ‘You got this baby.’ “I’m trying to give her her own space, you know? [Not be] overbearing or dominant in any way.”
Faith stepped out with her mom in December at The Hollywood Reporter‘s Annual Women In Entertainment Gala at The Beverly Hills Hotel. Clad in a black-and-white jacket with a matching tweed skirt, she stood next to her famous mom, who wore a black dress featuring a blue blouse-inspired collar.
Both girls also supported Kidman in April alongside their dad at the AFI Life Achievement Award Gala held at the Dolby Theatre in Los Angeles. The actress was celebrated at the event with the Lifetime Achievement Award, which is known as the highest honor in American cinema and previously received by the likes of Julie Andrews, Meryl Streep, Denzel Washington, Tom Hanks, Diane Keaton, Al Pacino and Barbra Streisand.
Kidman discussed the “enormous amount of luck” in her life at the event before praising her family for their unwavering support.
“There’s also the most important thing, love,” she added. “Big, big love. And then right there is the love of my life, and the loves of my life. My daughters have never been anywhere publicly with me on a red carpet, tonight was their first night, so they’re here, Sunday and Faith.”

Kidman, who is nominated at the 2025 Golden Globe Awards, recently lost her own mother, Janelle, in September at the age 84 and celebrated her life at the 2025 Palm Springs International Film Festival on Friday, January 3.
She dedicated her International Star Award to her mom, saying through tears, “I wanna dedicate — because I didn’t get to do it at the Venice Film Festival. I didn’t get to do that because I arrived in Venice and she was gone. I got the call and I said to [Babygirl director] Halina [Reijn], ‘Can you come on stage for me and accept the award for me.’ And she did. But now I’m on stage and I’m back here.”
Kidman went on, “Thank you for giving me the chance to say, ‘This is for my mom.’ My whole career has been for my mom and my dad, who are not here now. I’m still going to keep working and giving to the world because I love what I do and I love you all, and I’m so grateful for the privilege to be a part of the film community.”
“I’m sorry I’m crying. I didn’t want to do that,” the actress said. “But I feel my mom right now so this is for you, mama.”
Kidman’s father, Anthony, died in September 2014 at age 75.
At Friday’s ceremony, Kidman added of her parents, “They’ve given me the resilience, they’ve given me the love, and they’ve given me the strength to keep moving forward.”
