Red Carpet Redux: The Best Gowns from the 2015 Emmy Awards
The arrival of the Emmys reminds us that awards season is gearing up once more, and what excitement it brings! We love to tune in for all the emotional speeches and glamorous red carpet photo ops, but nothing beats taking in all the captivating gowns.
We swooned over Christina Hendricks and Claire Danes, while we could have done without the looks from Lena Headey and Heidi Klum. Now that awards season is officially kicked off, check out our list of the best dressed stars from last night’s Emmys.
Ellie Kemper
Worn by the wrong person this Naeem Khan gown could have gone terribly wrong. But the effervescent, bubbly Ellie Kemper from The Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt is perfect for the bright, structured gown.
Kerry Washington
Perhaps the most attention-grabbing dress of the evening, Kerry Washington’s Marc Jacobs gown was just debuted during the Spring 2016 New York Fashion Week.
Sarah Hyland
Her off-the-shoulder oxblood Zac Posen gown brings an Old Hollywood sophistication to the young Modern Family starlet.
Jaimie Alexander
There were rainbow gowns a-plenty at last night’s Emmys, but none stood out as much as Jaimie Alexander’s Armani Privé selection.
Laverne Cox
This deep teal dress from Calvin Klein Collection is a perfect selection for her statuesque, towering frame.
Carrie Brownstein
Though it’s not exactly a gown, we couldn’t help but swoon over the Portlandia star’s simple black suit. Feminine, unconventional and utterly brilliant, we love Brownstein for stepping into a perfect pantsuit.
Gina Rodriguez
The Jane The Virgin star looks like a modern-day Cinderella in this white, over-the-top Lorena Sarbua dress.
Padma Lakshmi
Green is risky shade, especially at an event like the Emmy’s. But the Top Chef host turned heads in this form-fitting chartreuse Romona Keveza gown.
Claire Danes
Normally we wouldn’t condone chains on couture, but in this instance we’ll make an exception. Claire Danes rocked this surprisingly elegant Prada gown.
Sarah Paulson
Nothing scary here! The American Horror Story actress is fabulous in sparkly, blue and black Prabal Gurung.
Allison Janney
Following in the footsteps of stars like Kim Kardashian and Beyonce, Allison Janney wears a body conscious Labourjoisie illusion dress with absolute confidence.
Elisabeth Moss
Simple yet chic, this sweet Oscar De La Renta number is a wonderful choice for the former Mad Men actress.
Rachel Brosnahan
Even with the plunging neckline, there is a certain sophistication to the House of Cards actress’ black and metallic brown ensemble.
Taylor Schilling
The Orange is the New Black leading lady looks stunning in a sweet sunshine yellow selection.
Julianne Hough
The devil is in the details in Julianne Hough’s risque but radiant Marchesa gown that leaves little to the imagination.
Christina Hendricks
Renowned for her enviable figure, Christina Hendricks' curves are accentuated by this embellished black and gold Naeem Khan dress.
