Hello everyone! I hope you are all having a wonderful day. For this week’s post, I wanted to show you all what my favorite looks were from the 2024 Emmys and why they were my favorite looks. Before we begin all of that, I wanted to shine a light on all of the winners this year. A special shoutout goes to the Shōgun cast and crew as this show won 18 total Emmys including Primetime and Creative Arts. Go y’all for breaking history and showcasing Japanese history to an audience out of Japan.
Now, overall the red carpet looks for the Emmys were very strong this year, but there were some ones I couldn’t keep my eyes off.
Quinta Brunson
Wearing: Georges Chakra, Tiffany & Co. Jewelry
I found this look so unique, because you don’t see this fabric outside of the runway. Also, I love how the dress moves with her. Every photo is going to look a little different based on the angle of the camera, and how she positions herself in front of the light. It’s a dress you have to document on a video not just photos.
Anna Sawai
Wearing: Vera Wang and Cartier Jewelry
I love the shape and construction of the sweetheart neckline. The drop waist peplum skirt on this mermaid style gown is just absolutely gorgeous on Sawai. In addition, her makeup is perfect for her. It accentuates her cheekbones and full lips, while also being very light and soft. Also, congratulations to Ms. Anna Sawai for winning Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series at the 2024 Emmys. The first Japanese actress to do so.
Christine Baranski
Wearing: Oscar de La Renta
The fabric of this gown is absolutely gorgeous in the light. It looks like liquid gold that has been molded on her body. Baranski looks elegant, regal, and refined. Something that should be on every red carpet.
Aja Naomi King
Wearing: Giambattista Valli Haute Couture
She looks like a rose in bloom. King would have worn this to the Met Gala, and would’ve easily made any best dressed list. I love the silver necklace and makeup as well. Her look is very cool toned, but she’s still glowing. Stunning.
Alan Cumming
Wearing: Teddy Vonranson
I love the nod to his heritage, as well as how the plaid peaks in and out of the blazer. Additionally, he’s serving face in the fiercest way.
Tyler James Williams
Wearing: Dolce and Gabbana and Tiffany & Co. Jewelry
His stylist did their JOB with this one. The look is a great juxtaposition of strong and delicate. His defined biceps are one focus, but the simple and soft jewelry tones it down a little.
Kurumi Nakata
Wearing: A Second Hand Kimono from Fukufuku Shinjuku
Her traditional dress is just something you don’t see at the Emmys. I love that she didn’t try to wear something to get the approval of the West. She stayed true to her roots and told a story through her kimono.
Abby Elliot
Wearing: Monique Lhuillier
It’s a very simple gown and silhouette, but it looks just darling on her. She’s the epitome of Spring, and I’m here for it. Elliot’s a reminder that not every look has to be world shattering. It can just stand amongst the crowd and be timeless.
