The Critics’ Choice Awards have slowly risen in prestige over the years, and are now considered an indicator of who is likely to win the prestigious Academy Awards.
And the Critics’ Choice red carpet has become a bigger deal fashion-wise, too. While the awards weren’t broadcast until 2001, making it one of the younger award shows, the Critics’ Choice awards have attracted fashion-industry favorites, including Zendaya and Lady Gaga over the years.
Nicole Kidman made a splash on the Critics’ Choice Awards carpet in a lace-embroidered slip dress with a low-cut neckline and exposed midriff in 2003, when she was nominated for “The Hours.”
