Best Dressed
The biggest trend at the 63rd Emmy Awards was the color red, but it was the ‘noir’ ladies who scored higher on the carpet.
Gwyneth Paltrow
It was perhaps Gwyneth Paltrow who took the biggest risk at Sunday’s Emmys by wearing a midriff-baring dress by Emilio Pucci.
The Emmy winner was smart enough to keep her hair and make-up to a minimum, which only complemented her overall look.
Kerry Washington
While many wore red, nobody had more fun with this hue than Kerry Washington, who opted for a design by Zuhair Murad.
The brightness, the sequins and see-through elements combined could’ve been a disaster on someone else, but Washington gives it balance with her poise and elegance.
Naya Rivera
Naya Rivera has never looked better this dress by Lloyd Klein, updo hair and smoky eyes. The bodice was interesting and architectural, yet simple and understated.
Nina Dobrev
Nina Dobrev shines in this dress by Donna Karan. While the bottom part is what makes it special, it’s really how Dobrev fits into this dress what we enjoyed the most.
Evan Rachel Wood
Even though she spent her summer playing with menswear, Evan Rachel Wood chose old Hollywood glamour in this black dress by Elie Saab.
Worst Dressed
Most of the women in this list at least tried to look decent, but there was one whose only goal was to show how tanned she could be.
Julianna Margulies
Some dresses are really just meant for editorials, and this is the case with the Armani Privé number that Julianna Margulies wore to the Emmys.
Besides, white is a very difficult color to wear for women with porcelain skin, especially if they have jet-black hair, like Julianna has.
Heidi Klum
Maybe this would’ve been a hit for a Project Runway challenge, but in the red carpet, this Christian Siriano design doesn’t look good on Heidi Klum.
The volume of the skirt would’ve worked if it was full-length, but midway it just looks like Heidi was going for drama while trying to show off her gams.
Melissa MacCarthy
The sleeves of this dress only made Melissa McCarthy look frumpier and bigger, and even though purple is a great color for her skin it was a tad too dark and sad.
Taraji P. Henson
There’s nothing really bad about this Bluemarine dress, it has more to do with the fit and how it looks on Taraji P. Henson.
Paz de la Huerta
This pink dress would probably work better at a prom from the 80’s, and it even looks more ridiculous on Paz de la Huerta’s overly tan body and disheveled hair.
