Emmys 2024 Red Carpet: Fashionably Late!

Ms. Marla Gibbs looks like the most radiant celestial night sky! And I’ll say it, she wins the most-comfortable-looking and the best-matched shoes award for the evening.

I can’t think of many combinations that feel more regal than a velvet plunge. Warm? Cold? Irrelevant!

Carrie Bradshaw found dead in a ditch! Just kidding, although surely that’s a possible plot point in the next season of And Just Like That. Love this dress but could do without the matching bows.

From the looks of that tummy pat, Kieran is pregnant! But in all seriousness, lovely outfits from both. I like how although we cannot see Kieran’s 700 bracelets under his sleeve, we get a taste of them through his 45 rings. 🙂

Move over Poseidon! Hannah Waddingham wearing this sea-foam marvel could take over all the world’s oceans.

I’m a sucker for a moody floral and for Jennifer Coolidge. Lucky for me this photo gives me both.

Genuinely surprised by how much I like this gown and how much shape it takes on despite the fabric looking rather heavy. Amber Ruffin is able to make almost any outfit look fun and playful.

This gown looks like a delicate little birdcage, placed inside a secret garden. Exquisite! I’m not quite sure how sitting down works, though.

Sometimes, the simplest things in life are the things that bring you pleasure. That can be a warm cup of tea, a good book, or perhaps Alexander Skarsgård in a crisp black tuxedo...

This outfit makes me reconsider whether Susie Myerson is ultimately just Midge Maisel’s madame.

Textured tuxedo alert! Sam is lowkey always looking so handsome and stylish at these events.

My eyes are hurting trying to make out the contours of this glittery rose positioned on her hip. Feeling lost in the sauce—not a good thing for me!

This caftan makes me feel so calm. Looking at it feels like curling up in a ray of warm sunlight.

Wow, that social media break—however short—looks great on Selena!

I’m so distracted by the thought that her entire torso is going to be indented by the boning of this bodice.

Mom and Dad’s night out. Nice to see them wearing matching outfits on trend with the “mob wife” TikTok craze.

A perfect day-to-night look if you work in a cubicle and are planning to spend the night hanging out in a library! Dull!

Sarah Snook draped in voluminous Vivienne Westwood is glamour. I’m sure somewhere, Tom is both furious and turned on! As he should be...

Perhaps the most elegant homage to Nickelodeon Slime I’ve ever seen.

Lordy lordy! A long tuxedo jacket with a chunky boot, and he’s somehow also giving regal?! How does he do it all...

This seems like the perfect culmination of the bow trend. Also, don’t coquette so hard you get pregnant.

A lot of layers on young Bella Ramsey—I hope the theater isn’t too hot!

Holy galactic sand dollars: Natasha Lyonne looks like a sea creature from an alien ocean we have yet to discover.

Just how I expect Mr. Lasso to look—like a dapper, smug cheesecake.

We’ve got sort of a tattered, jazz-age schoolmarm look going on here. Can’t say I love it.

The doctor is IN. Lorraine looks sophisticated and simple, and I feel the uncontrollable need to tell her my dreams about ducks...

There are few things I love more than glamorous glasses. But this dress is a fever dream of items at the bottom of your dress-up bin!!

This raspberry blush is gorgeous but even if the crinkles are on purpose, it’s like having a tag stick out of your outfit. I desperately want her to hold onto her best-dressed title from 2023, but it’s looking rocky...

I’m getting big “I can’t. I’m sorry. Don’t hate me.” vibes from this one! (Real Sex and the City heads will know.) But in general, Aubrey Plaza wearing a dangerous dagger near her heart seems apt.

Gothic butternut squash! Not my favorite of Ayo’s award season looks, but it’s been a severely stacked lineup, so that isn’t a bad thing.

Come my lady, come-come my lady, You’re my butterfly, sugar baby... alright now that I got that out of the way, Laverne looks stunning and like a butterfly cat-woman. Does that make sense? No? Sorry!

I know a lot of underemployed twee artists in Brooklyn who make collages just like this.

Naive of me to think we wouldn’t be inundated with the year’s most polarizing accessory: bows. But Janelle does a nice job at aging them up with this deep and sexy shade of red.

Stunning. Comfortable. Reminds me of the dog that looks like Judith Light.

It’s Dominique’s first-ever Emmy nom for Lead Actress in a Limited or Anthology Series for Swarm. A big ball gown for a big night!

Bobby Berk brunette?! I’m updating my files. This look screams, “I’ve broken up with my five-man polycule to strike out on my own.”

Our Top Chef queen looks like a bejeweled leaf of lettuce! She is serving. Yum, yum, yum.

Well, obviously the finger-wave side-bang situation is the show-stopper. Can’t look away! Not saying I love it but I always appreciate a statement hairdo!

Let me get this straight: A “Yellow” “jacket” star...wearing a “green” “dress”?? Make it make sense! But seriously folks... Young Natalie is giving Ever After in this mossy silk frock.

Looks like the Lay-Z Boy recliner my uncle used to pass out on while we watched football. Good luck with the sweat situation in the theater, my friend.

Perfect for Desi to wear to the next Great Gatsby party she’s invited to. Otherwise, these dresses just remind me of decadent cat toys.

Ariel who?!! Unfortunately, we have to retire the mermaid gown after this; it’s unbeatable.

There is some stunning beadwork on this tuxedo jacket! A sign of good taste for tonight’s host...
