The 'Lion' actress stepped out of her comfort zone to walk the red carpet at the Beverly Hilton hotel in a silver Alexander McQueen gown with statement sleeves because the "fairy" dress made eight-year-old Sunday and six-year-old Faith - her kids with husband Keith Urban - so happy.
She told DailyMail.com: "I was trying all the frocks on and when I put this on they both jumped up and said, 'Mummy, you look like a beautiful fairy on that dress!' So that was it. I stopped trying on any of the others and said to them that I'm wearing the fairy dress to the Globes.
"It's not really what I would normally wear but it made the girls happy."
To go with her "dreamy" and "rock chick" gown, make-up artist Charlotte Tilbury gave her a metallic eye.
She explained: "Her look is dreamy, ethereal, and has a little bit of a rock chick kind of edge to it. She's wearing a beautiful Alexander McQueen dress that's tulle and silver, its dreamy.
"The glittery eye shadow] really plays with the light and picks up the light really beautifully."
And Charlotte also used a lipstick she had specially mixed for the 49-year-old star.
She told People Style: "[On her lips is] Kidman's Kiss -- a colour that I specifically mixed for her. It's her favourite lipstick."
Nicole's hair was arranged by Kylee Heath into a woven half-updo, which wasn't the stylist's original plan for her locks.
She explained: "I started working a low, messy bun with a criss-cross effect on top that had a fishtail feel to it.
"When we got halfway through, everyone in the room agreed that we should stop! It was perfect half-up, half down. The loose pieces were just the edge we needed."
Nicole "loved" her look, and her husband approved too.
Kylee said: "When her hair was finished and Nicole was getting into her dress, her husband Keith came in for a quickie hair touch-up himself. And when he saw Nicole, he looked at Charlotte and me and said, 'Nice job, girls!' "
