Nicole Kidman, Jewel: Academy of Country Music Awards fashion hits and misses

April 20, 2010 -- A fashionista to the core, Nicole Kidman should know better than to show up looking like she did on Sunday night. The acclaimed actress was wearing what looked like a chopped off tuxedo that was then made into a short frock.

Designer L'Wren Scott should also be ticketed by the fashion police for Kidman's look, which only had one redeeming touch: Her red lips! Nothing could ruin those luscious smackers.

Meanwhile, Jewel looked like her name in a halter top, Grecian style gown done in a stunning blue (to match her eyes) and created by Jenny Packham. Meanwhile, Cher made a brief appearance wearing her standard rock and roll look from head to toe, including a leather jacket, lacy bustier and a long thick biker's chain coming from her tiny waist.

Designer duds at the Country Music Awards were also part of LeAnn Rimes' draw, as she stepped out with actor Eddie Cibrian. Wearing the high-end designer Lanvin, her strapless cocktail dress was matched with heels by Stella McCartney and a Jimmy Choo clutch purse.  A pretty penny was spent on this outfit for Rimes, but the singer looked as expensive as the cost of the gear.

Other fashion at the 45th annual Academy of Country Music Awards worth mentioning were singer Miranda Lambert's metallic dazzler by Pamella Roland and Taylor Swift, who was draped in a lavender gown made by Hollywood favorite designer Marchesa.  On her feet? Christian Louboutin high heels (the shoes that are identified because each pair is colored red on the bottom).

Finally, as far as fashion is concerned, the winner for the night was Carrie Underwood who wore three outfits during the course of the evening, including a nude colored Basil Soda dress as she walked proudly on the red carpet. Her performance gown was a floral satin stunner, while her pure white mini was absolutely perfect for accepting her Entertainer of the Year award.
Oh, and this former American Idol winner also sported a big diamond ring, one that this writer thinks is part of every outfit she will ever wear from now on because this singing sweetie is engaged to be married and that rock is a rock she will have on her finger for the rest of her life.
