I have been singing Jack Harlow’s “Lovin On Me” nonstop since seeing Nicole Kidman at the 2024 GQ Men of the Year awards. Specifically the lyric that goes, “I don’t like no whips and chains and you can’t tie me down. But, you can whip your lovin’ on me, baby.” With its turtleneck and long sleeves, Kidman’s scarlet Balenciaga gown was giving sweater dress from the front. But then, you see the back and it’s a whole different story.

In the back, the dress features a red ribbon corset detail that starts at the top of the neck and continues all the way down to the hem, secured at the neckline with a bow. The bow’s ribbon tails are far longer than the dress itself, and Kidman carried them in her hand so they looked a bit like, well, a whip. She completed the ensemble with matching red pumps, loose hair, and a classic brown smokey eye.
