Nicole Kidman's latest maternity outfit is nothing if not daring.

The Hollywood star stepped out in a bizarre black frock with large sheer panels to promote her film The Golden Compass in Japan yesterday.

The see-through dress momentarily distracted from her emerging bump, which she nursed carefully during the photo call.

During the press conferance, the five-month pregnant star revealed she had deliberately chosen The Golden Compass script because it's child-friendly.

She said: "My Bella and Connor are 13 and 15. So they have seen the film and they loved it... my child inside won't see the film for a long time."

"But I think once you have children you want to balance the work you do because they give up so much of you to your work. So occasionally you want to make films that they can take their friends to, they can go to the premiere of, that they celebrate.”

Nicole is scheduled to return to the US later this week ahead of the Academy Awards on Sunday night, where she will resent an Oscar along with fellow Hollywood luminaries Helen Mirren, George Clooney and Katherine Heigl.

While in the US, she is expected to be reunited with Keith after spending much of this month apart.

The pair were on separate sides of the globe on Valentine's Day, but Nicole was clearly not far from Keith's mind.

During a performance at Madison Square Garden on February 13, the singer dedicated his song, "Got it Right This Time," to his wife, who was in Australia at the time.

He said: "It's Valentine's Day here tomorrow, but today it's already Valentine's Day in Australia."

Meanwhile, Nicole has made no secret of the couple's hopes for more children, saying: "Keith and I would really love to have a big family. But I'm so happy at the moment, I couldn't ask for anything more."
