Stars of Nine at the 2010 SAG Awards

The female leads of Nine on stage to present at the 2010 SAG Awards, where they were up for the Oustanding Cast Award.

First Nicole Kidman, she skipped the red carpet which is such a shame as this is a really fresh look for her.

Back with red hair this is like Nicole in the '90s, and she really stood out from her co-stars in her shimmering gold Oscar de la Renta gown, which she wore with Fred Leighton jewels.

Marion Cotillard didn't go for a gown but looked fabulous in a beaded and feathered Elie Saab dress, super high Saab heels and a Judith Leiber clutch.

Penelope Cruz kept it simple in black, and looked quite boring in comparison to her co-stars, wearing a beaded L'Wren Scott dress with a Chopard bracelet, basic black clutch and Casadei heels.
Kate Hudson was stunning from the front and back in her white Emilio Pucci gown; the gown had its own sparkling silver accent but that didn't stop Kate adding even more bling, with over $1.75 million worth of Cartier jewelry.
