Her hair gathered up and wearing gold hoop earrings and matching gold clutch, she reveled in that maternal glow. A heavily pregnant Cate Blanchett chose an unusual, but stunning, navy blue silk satin dress by Dries Van Noten not known for their maternity wear which worked particularly well with the beaded neck piece which complemented the distinctive embroidered hem of the dress. Nicole Kidman, whose slender frame hardly revealed her condition, chose a simple black dress with a sweet-heart neckline but also the tell-tale empire waist and gentle pleats which made her pregnant state all but disappear".
