Nicole Kidman Owns Her Witchy Era at “Practical Magic 2” Photo Call in London<\/p>\n

Witchy glamour took over Claridge’s this week as Nicole Kidman<\/a> led the cast of “Practical Magic 2” at a photo call in the hotel’s storied Ballroom, ahead of the sequel’s September release. The event marked a rare on-camera reunion for the film’s leading women, who reprise their roles as the spellbound Owens sisters nearly three decades after the original cult classic first bewitched audiences in 1998.<\/p>\n

Kidman, 59, channelled her character Gillian Owens’ darkly romantic sensibility in a Chanel<\/a> minidress that struck the perfect balance between minimalism and mischief. The little black dress came alive with a plunging V-neckline and a fitted silhouette, its hemline landing just above the knee for a look that was equal parts polished and playful. Dual shoulder straps, threaded entirely from strings of pearls, added a jewel-like flourish that nodded subtly to her character’s bohemian edge. Kidman carried the monochrome theme through to her footwear, opting for two-tone black-and-white slingback kitten heels \u2014 a witty, tactile counterpoint to the dress’s fluid drape \u2014 and finished the look with a statement diamond ring.<\/p>\n

Beauty followed suit with an equally considered hand: rosy, radiant skin, peachy flushed cheeks, glossy lips, and a glossy manicure completed Kidman’s glam. Hair told its own story of experimentation, with a fresh set of thicker, side-swept bangs replacing the wispy, eye-grazing fringe she’d worn just a day prior, all set off by loose, honey-blonde waves.<\/p>\n

Sandra Bullock, her longtime co-star, took a different sartorial route, favoring tailoring over frills. Pulled from Erdem’s 2027 resort collection, her look paired a double-breasted, long-sleeve blazer with a silky white skirt cut on the asymmetric \u2014 a hemline choice that introduced just enough visual tension to keep the outfit from reading too corporate. Black botanical lace threaded through the ensemble supplied the requisite dose of witchiness, while a white scarf lent a distinctly ’90s flourish, a subtle homage to the franchise’s 1998 origins. Black strappy sandal heels rounded out the look.<\/p>\n

Kidman and Bullock were joined on the step-and-repeat by two new additions to the cast, both embracing a bohemian, witch-inspired aesthetic of their own. Joey King<\/a>, 27, opted for a full-length black knit gown finished with ruffled trim, layered elegantly over a matching two-piece set. She accessorized with an assortment of ornate gold rings and wore her long auburn hair sleek and straightened.<\/p>\n

Maisie Williams, 29, leaned into Gothic maximalism with a layered black gown featuring ruched detailing and a dramatic train. She personalized the ensemble with a curated cluster of brooches pinned at the chest \u2014 a diamante jewel, a rose motif, and an ornate silver flower \u2014 each adding texture and story to an otherwise sleek silhouette.<\/p>\n

Together, the foursome offered a masterclass in how to interpret “witchy” through four entirely distinct sartorial lenses: Kidman’s minimalist romance, Bullock’s tailored tension, King’s textured bohemia, and Williams’ Gothic drama.Beyond the individual looks, the photo call underscored a broader style narrative currently dominating red carpets: the reinterpretation of “witchy” as a genuinely wearable aesthetic rather than a Halloween clich\u00e9. From Kidman’s pearl-draped minimalism to Williams’ brooch-laden drama, each ensemble proved that gothic-romantic dressing can flex across occasions \u2014 a trend fashion insiders expect to gain further momentum as the film’s September release approaches<\/p>\n

Based on Alice Hoffman’s novel “The Book of Magic,” “Practical Magic 2” continues the story of sisters Sally and Gillian Owens, played by Bullock and Kidman, as they work to break a generational curse on their family. The film arrives in theaters September 11.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
