Nicole Kidman and Daughter Faith Turn Heads at Chanels Paris Fashion Week Show, Sparking Buzz Online

As cameras focused on them, what initially seemed like a typical fashion-week event turned into something that fans analyzed in detail. One specific aspect raised eyebrows, while another had audiences doing a double take for entirely different reasons.

Nicole Kidman attended Chanel’s recent Paris Fashion Week show with one of her daughters, effortlessly creating a mother-daughter moment that was sure to draw attention. However, after footage of their appearance surfaced online, viewers began to hone in on two distinct aspects, prompting a wave of reactions.

The 59-year-old actress and her 15-year-old daughter, Faith Margaret Kidman Urban, graced the Chanel Womenswear Spring/Summer 2027 show in Paris on October 5, 2026.

One viewer zeroed in on Kidman's movement during the Chanel outing, asking, "Why is she walking so oddly?" The remark became part of a wider online discussion about how she appeared to navigate her footwear.

Both mother and daughter chose matching outfits for the fashion house’s latest showcase. Nicole donned a stylish charcoal gray double-breasted blazer dress, which she paired with black tights, black pumps, and a burgundy clutch. Her blonde hair was elegantly styled in a sleek blowout, featuring long bangs that framed her face.

Faith opted for a more casual look, sporting a black-and-gray Chanel cardigan adorned with the brand’s logo, black trim, and gold buttons. She finished her outfit with jeans and chic black-and-white slingback heels.

The mother-daughter duo did more than just pose for photos. Vogue posted a video on Facebook showing them walking hand in hand, smiling and waving at the cameras as they made their entrance. This brief moment quickly turned into a topic of conversation.

Another commenter suggested the shoes themselves may have been the issue, writing, "I think you reach a certain age where high heels are too painful." Similar reactions kept the conversation focused on Kidman's walk long after the fashion-show footage surfaced.

Social Media Reactions to Nicole’s Walk

As the clips circulated online, many social media users focused not on Nicole’s stylish blazer dress but on her unusual walking style. One viewer commented, “Her feet are screaming at her!” Another noted, “her shin looks a little wobbly. The shoe shaft is too high.”

A different viewer questioned, “Why is she walking so oddly?” In contrast, one observer remained positive, simply stating, “She’s got the legs!” Another user humorously compared her walking to that of her granddaughter, sharing, “Looks like my 10-year-old granddaughter did on the weekend in her mum’s shoes lol.” However, not all comments were critical.

One individual defended Nicole, expressing, “She looks beautiful. Why are people hating on her? She’s just trying to get back on track and make a living. She has a family.”

Another user suggested a different perspective, saying, “I think you reach a certain age where high heels are too painful.”

These reactions were merely interpretations by viewers of a short clip from the fashion show. Nonetheless, they highlight how closely Nicole’s presence was scrutinized once the footage was shared on social media. The commentary did not stop there; another user commented on Instagram, saying, “she can barely walk,” while a second user simply asked, “is she okay?”

Kidman attended Chanel's Spring/Summer 2027 show shortly after being named one of the fashion house's newest ambassadors. The actress previously said she was looking forward to seeing Matthieu Blazy's vision for Chanel.

While much of the online discourse centered around Nicole, Faith was quietly garnering her own share of attention.

Faith’s Own Moment in the Spotlight

For many viewers, Faith’s appearance next to her mother sparked an immediate response, as the resemblance between them was striking. One Instagram user remarked, “Her daughter is way more beautiful as she is so natural compared to her mum.” Another user stated, “Her true twin 😍😍.” A third noted, “Her daughter looks so natural and cute❤️.”

Another user shared their thoughts on their fashion sense, saying, “In my opinion, her daughter is more stylish than Nicole 🙌😍 [sic].” Someone else pointed out a familiar trait, commenting, “Omg the daughter has her mom’s smile. So cute! ❤️.”

One comment particularly emphasized their resemblance: “The daughter is the spitting image of her mother when she was young — even her mannerisms and the way she walks.” With Faith’s understated Chanel ensemble and her shared moment with Nicole, the teenager left a remarkable impression of her own.

Faith, 15, is one of the two daughters Kidman shares with ex-husband Keith Urban, alongside 18-year-old Sunday. Her appearance at the Chanel show quickly sparked comments about how much she resembles her famous mother.

Significance of Their Fashion-Week Appearance

Nicole’s presence at Chanel has additional significance. She also attended the fashion house’s show during the previous Paris Fashion Week in 2025, which marked her first public appearance following her separation from Keith Urban. At that event, she was accompanied by Faith and her older daughter, Sunday Rose Kidman Urban.

During that occasion, she debuted a new fringe, pairing it with a white button-up shirt and jeans. Nicole shares her daughters Faith and Sunday, 18, with Keith, 58. Previously, she was married to Tom Cruise, with whom she has a daughter, Bella, 33, and a son, Connor, 31.

Nicole’s ongoing involvement with Chanel has taken on new meaning following her recent appointment as the brand’s newest ambassador.

In a statement to WWD regarding her new role, Nicole said, “As someone who has such an appreciation for haute couture, I am so looking forward to witnessing Matthieu’s vision for the oldest haute couture house still in operation and having the opportunity to wear what I know will be gorgeous creations.”

She continued, “Chanel has always been ahead of the curve, shining a smart and gracious light on women, and I am sure Matthieu will be no exception, just like Karl did in his time.”

This time, however, the fashion may have only been part of what sparked discussion. With the conversation revolving around Nicole’s heels and stride, combined with the flood of comments admiring Faith and her likeness to Nicole, their appearance in Paris generated two distinct viral topics from a single mother-daughter outing.
