If
 the 2015 Emmys proved anything, it’s that celebrities have magical 
abilities to sill look amazing on the red carpet no matter what Mother 
Nature throws at them. Held at the Microsoft Theater on Sunday in Los 
Angeles, California, stars posed on the step-and-repeat looking put 
together — and gorgeous — despite the 100 degree heat. 
Many got top 
marks for their style — hello Taraji P. Henson in Alexander Wang, Aubrey
 Plaza in Alexandre Vaulthier, and Ariel Winter in Romona Keveza — while
 some barely made the grade (sorry, Heidi Klum). Yet one thing’s for 
sure: everyone passed.
Claire Danes in Prada. 

Claire Danes loves to take risks and this Prada dress certainly is one. Like a pink and purple brick wall, the “Homeland” star’s gown was held up with chain link straps, which weaved throughout the piece.
Sarah Paulson in Prabal Gurung.

Even
 if Sarah Paulson doesn’t take home the Emmy, she’ll leave tonight with 
the validation that she’s Yahoo Style’s winner of best dressed. 
Completely covered in sequins, the off-the shoulder section was in black
 and another stripe also offset the rest of all-over navy.
Christina Hendricks in Naeem Khan.

Christina
 Hendricks said she was going to wear something unlike anything she’d 
worn before and she did not disappoint. Surprising her fans in a fitted 
dress, the “Mad Men” actress wore a Naeem Khan dress completely 
embellished in metal all arranged in a geometric pattern.
Maisie Williams in pink. 

Maisie
 Williams’s pink dress looked a quilt but who cares because she looked 
so sweet in the bubblegum piece. Even more fun than the midi dress 
itself were her accessories, wearing furry peep toe heels and carrying a
 clutch in the shape of a penguin wearing a tuxedo. 
 Kerry Washington in Marc Jacobs. 

Just
 days after hitting the runway, the dress Binx Walton wore at the 
Ziegfeld theater show became Kerry Washington’s red carpet look for the 
2015 Emmys. A mix of many metals, the gold and silver mesh and sequin 
mid-calf hemline hitting piece was on point. 
Kathryn Hahn in Vivienne Westwood. 

Kathryn
 Hahn caught the best floral bouquet of the night in a Vivienne Westwood
 dress. The purple, pink, green, red, and black patterned dress featured
 tiers, an asymmetrical hemline, and a protruding piece off of the 
strapless top. 
Emma Roberts in Jenny Packham.  

In
 a very ‘80s fabric that could’ve been seen on Jane Fonda leggings in a 
jazzercize video, Emma Roberts somehow made the shimmering latex chic in
 a plunging neckline. 
 Elizabeth Moss in Oscar de la Renta.

Elizabeth
 Moss wore a Peter Copping for Oscar de la Renta hot pink gown. While 
she wasn’t the best dressed in magenta, the silhouette was still nice on
 her and the platinum blonde hair worked great with the bright shade.
 Julianne Hough in Marchesa. 

It’s
 the mark of a privileged fashionista to be able to pull off the runway.
 At the Emmys, Julianne Hough earned her credentials wearing a Marchesa 
gown that walked only days ago in New York. The collection was inspired 
by birds and the caged dress on the “Dancing With the Stars” host was 
edgy and beautiful simultaneously. 
January Jones in Ulyana Sergeenko. 

January
 Jone was invited to the Emmys for her period show “Mad Men,” yet her 
Sunday night look was all 2015. The strapless jumpsuit took the 
one-shoulder trend and turned it on its head by covering only one leg in ruffles.
Jill Soloway in Bottega Veneta. 
 
 
Not
 only did Jilly Soloway take home the Emmy for Best Directing, Comedy, 
she also scored a perfect 10 for her Bottega Veneta polka dot suit and 
Stella McCartney creepers.  
 Lena Headey in Zuhair Murad. 

Lena
 Headey’s famous scene in “Game of Thrones” had her taking it all off 
and therefore it wouldn’t have been surprising if she’d worn a naked 
gown a la Jennifer Lopez and Beyoncé. But instead she went the couture 
route and chose a berry red Zuhair Murad dress from the Fall 2015 
collection. Never has covering up looked so good. 
Maggie Gyllenhaal in Oscar de la Renta.  
 
 
Maggie
 Gyllenhaal, in an Oscar de la Renta gown from Peter Copping’s first 
collection for the house, was just OK. She gets props for the designer 
choice but the big skirt did nothing for her. 
 Naomi Watts in Dior. 

Naomi
 Watts chose a dress from Dior’s Fall 2012 collection. Interestingly, 
she’s not the only one. Maybe she’s a big fan of the recent 
documentary “Dior and I” and wanted to give that a nod. No matter what 
the motivation, the midi dress with differently embellished patterns on 
both the front and back is a clear winner. 
 Gina Rodriguez in Lorena Sarbu. 

The
 breakout star of the year for her role in “Jane the Virgin,” Gina 
Rodriguez looked like she fell from heaven in a white Lorena Sarbu 
gown. 
 Taylor Schilling in Stella McCartney. 

Taylor
 Schilling shined as bright as the sun — literally, I’m blind — in a 
Stella McCartney dress. The peplum hemline hit just at the ankle and the
 one shoulder ruched fabric. That many techniques in one piece would 
usually be a recipe for disaster but instead it came together 
wonderfully. 
Allison Janney in a sheer and sequin dress. 

The “Mom”
 actress, who won for her comedic role, was the only star to take on the
 naked trend. Mind you, she’s 55 so she deserves so much ore than just 
an Emmy. 
 Sarah Hyland in Zac Posen. 

Party in the front and a true fiesta in the back! Sarah Hyland’s berry Zac Posen gown was incredibly on-trend with the off-the-shoulder silhouette and then she turned around to reveal a cutout.
Joanna Newsom in DelPozo and husband Andy Samberg. 

Sure,
 it’s Andy Samberg’s night as the host of the broadcast, but his wife 
Joanna Newsom stole the show on the red carpet in a DelPozo dress. The 
gown flowed on the bottom but was structured on top, creating a striking
 dichotomy. 
Mindy Kaling in Salvador Perez. 
 
 
Mindy
 Kaling has found her color. Silhouette on the other hand? Not so much. 
The “Mindy Project” actress was golden in one sense, but drab on the 
other. 
Taraji P. Henson in Alexander Wang.  

Taraji P. Henson wore Alexander Wang for the first time at the Met Gala and hasn’t stopped since. The designer, who recently celebrated 10 years of his eponymous label, custom made Cookie’s red carpet dress. With her hair in a bob, she was sweet and tough as nails all in one, with a lace bodice and chainlink straps.
Amy Poehler in Michael Kors.
 
 
Amy
 Poehler’s secret to looking young and fresh must be comedy. The “Parks 
and Rec” actress, who was nominated for the sixteenth time, wore a black
 dress with a halter top and side cutouts, looking no older than her 44 
years. 
Joanne Froggatt in J. Mendel.

Always
 a winner, Joanne Froggatt opted for something a bit more futuristic in a
 J. Mendel dress. The blush color was pretty and then accented in black,
 which is an off pairing but still somehow worked.
Julia Louis-Dreyfus in SAFiYAA. 

The
 brand SAFiYAA is new, but Julia Louis-Dreyfus is an old red carpet pro.
 The “VEEP” actress knows her body and how to win a red carpet, even if 
it’s just a black dress.
Julie Bowen in George Chakra.

“If
 I don’t get him some press up in here, he may not give me another 
dress,” Julie Bowen said of George Chakra. The “Modern Family” actress 
was in plain ole’ black but with some futuristic straps, she managed to 
break out from the pack. 
Jamie Lee Curtis in black. 

Jamie
 Lee Curtis didn’t dare to do anything very exciting, but the fact that 
the black gown fit her to a T gave her extra points.
Anna Chlumsky in Bibhu Mohapatra. 

Anna
 Chlumsky, in a Bibhu Mohapatra gown and Chopard jewels, looked like a 
work of art in the white number covered in flowers. Paired with a crown 
braid, she went for the Grecian look and nailed it.
Jaime Alexander in Armani Privé. 

Jamie
 Alexander might’ve been sweating in long sleeves, but it was worth it. 
The actress, who was with Peter Facinelli, wore a a gown from Armani 
Privé’s Fall 2015 collection. 
 Cat Deeley in Monique Lhuillier.

At
 six months pregnant, Cat Deeley still wore a dress straight off the 
runway from Monique Lhullier. The “So You Think You Can Dance” host, in a
 gown from the Fall 2015 collection, appeared like an Emmys statue 
herself in the beaded slip dress on steroids.
Aubrey Plaza in Alexandre Vaultier. 

Far
 from the Parks and Rec department in Pawnee, Aubrey Plaza looked 
out-of-character in an incredibly sexy Alexandre Vaultier black gown 
with a plunging neckline and side slit.
Laura Prepon in Christian Siriano.
  
Laura
 Prepon, “Orange Is the New Black” star, stood out in a red gown made by
 Christian Siriano. The red gown was basically a red strapless gown made
 a little more fancy with a gold neckpiece that framed her chest. 
Kristen Schaal in Rubin Singer. 
 
 
Is
 that you Kristen Schaal?! The “Last Man on Earth” actress wore her hair
 in a sleek angular bob and paired it with a strapless navy blue gown 
with major volume. Keep it up, babe!
Heidi Klum in Atelier Versace. 

Heidi
 Klum gave off major Big Bird vibes in a yellow dress from from Altelier
 Versace’s Fall/Winter 2015 collection. The couture gown featured a 
single ruffle shoulder, sheer beaded skirt and leaves appliquéd on the 
bodice. 
Gwendoline Christie in a pale dress. 

Who
 said pale people can’t wear light colors? Gwendoline Christie’s really 
light dress surprisingly didn’t drown her out despite the old adage that
 says it should.
Amanda Peet in Michael Kors.
  
With
 a red lip and high bun, Amanda Peet, whose husband is one of the men 
behind “Game of Thrones,” let her beauty do the talking. She wore a 
Michael Kors black gown with a stomach cutout that, while beautiful, let
 everything else stand out. 
Danielle Brooks in Christian Siriano.

A
 few too many colors on Danielle Brooks’s in Christian Siriano gown, but
 at least she had the most important thing: confidence — and plenty of 
it.
Kiernan Shipka in Dior. 

Kiernan
 Shipka couldn’t walk the red carpet until she finished her homework and
 boy are we glad that she did. “I crammed in so much last week because I
 knew I wasn’t going to have any time this week,” she admitted. The 
15-year-old looked youthful in a Dior ensemble from the Fall 2012 
collection with a gold mini dress and black pants underneath.
Laverne Cox in Calvin Klein Collection. 
 
 Not only did Laverne Cox refuse to be cut off by Ryan Seacrest before giving credit to Calvin Klein for her dress, she also made sure to specifically name Francisco Costa as the man behind it. The “Orange Is the New Black” actress wore a green dress and then added some mint heels for contrast.
Chelsea Peretti in Gabriela Cadena.  

Gabriela
 Cadena’s an up and coming designer so it’s only fitting that Chelsea 
Peretti, an up and coming comedienne, chose a dress from the brand. The 
pattern seems like it was pulled off of curtains but the sheer at least 
added a little sex appeal. 
Christine Baranski in hot pink.  

 Usually in suits on set, Christine Baranski popped in hot pink, earning a best dressed nod from Yahoo Style. 
Tatiana Maslany in Bouchra Jarrar. 

The
 “Orphan Black” star, who plays 10 different characters on the show, 
wore just one look on the red carpet, but that was all she needed. The 
white Bouchra Jarrar suit, paired with Sophia Webster shoes, was 
sophisticated yet still sexy with the bare chest.
Carrie Brownstein in a black suit. 

How to do menswear right: Carrie Brownstein. The “Portlandia” star paired tapered black pants with high heels and styled her hair in some Old Hollywood curls.
Edie Falco in Prada.

Edie
 Falco traded her “Nurse Jackie” scrubs for a pink Prada dress and the 
pale pink gown’s certainly a better fit for her than the light blue 
cotton separates. The gown, an iteration from the same collection seen 
on every September magazine cover, had pleats cascading from the 
neckline and little beaded flowers throughout the skirt.
Ellie Kemper in Naeem Khan.  

Ellie
 Kemper wore a dress of every tweenage girl’s dream. The Naeem Khan 
dress combined lots of lines and ROYGBV into one gown. She had her hair 
pulled back adding a little edge to the really childish dress. 
Jessica Lange in J. Mendel.

Sure,
 Jessica Lange’s J. Mendel navy gown is chic, but it’s the sunglasses 
that she refused to take off for pictures on the step-and-repeat that 
deserves all the things. 
Jessica Pare in MONSE.  

Jessica
 Pare basically became Megan Draper at the Emmys. Blurring the lines 
between real life and “Mad Men,” the actress looked divine in a hot pink
 gown with a rose at the chest. 
Lady Gaga in Brandon Maxwell. 
 
 
Lady
 Gaga’s longtime designer and friend Brandon Maxwell just made his 
runway debut at New York Fashion Week, so it comes as no surprise that 
the singer and upcoming “American Horror Story” actress wore a custom 
design from him. Mother Monster, whose style has gotten increasingly 
more normal over the past few months, was incredibly ladylike in the 
black number.
 Lily Tomlin in a black dress and blazer. 

Lily
 Tomlin, nominated for her Netflix series “Grace and Frankie,” probably 
should’ve chosen something younger and more boho, but the black dress 
with a blazer on top was still OK. 
Uzo Aduba in Jonathan Cohen. 

Uzo
 Aduba combined ombré and splatter paint into one with her Johnathan 
Cohen dress. The hot pink and black dress with a halter neck was like a 
Rorschach test for Barbie — you decide if that’s a good or bad thing.  
Morena Baccarin in Reem Acra.  
 
 
Morena
 Baccarin wore a dress that every single other star has already worn in 
the past. Boring for sure but let’s give credit where credit’s due: the 
actress still looked beautiful in the red Reem Acra gown. 
Samira Wiley in Christian Siriano.
Samira Wiley in Christian Siriano.

Samira
 Wiley was recently tapped as the face of Christian Siriano, so it comes
 as no surprise that they couple up on the Emmys red carpet. In a hot 
pink one-shoulder gown, the “Orange Is the New Black” star’s gown had a 
one-shoulder cape cascading down as well. 
Sophie Turner in GALVAN.  

Sophie
 Turner wore pants on the red carpet, showing that the young “Game of 
Thrones” star is an up-and-coming style star. If that doesn’t convince 
the series to keep on going forever and ever, then perhaps the fact that
 it’s the most popular show will. 
Taryn Manning in a cape.  

Taryn Manning wore a dress that seemed like it was more fit for Elvira or a high school senior going through her goth phase. 
Ariel Winter in Romona Keveza. 

Felicity Huffman in a halter dress with husband William H. Macy.  
 
 
Felicity
 Huffman, who recently dyed her blonde hair to a much darker brunette 
shade, wore a navy blue pleated dress with a halter top. The dress, 
while great, would’ve been fantastic had it not been for her distracting
 beehive hairstyle. 
Tracee Ellis Ross in Zac Posen. 

Usually
 one to take risks, it’s nice to see Tracee Ellis Ross do just that. 
Unfortunately for her, this time it fell flat. Wearing a tiered peach 
gown with checkered cutouts, the dress looked more fit for a teenager’s 
dress-up bin than the red carpet. 
Sofia Vergara in St. John.  
 
 
Sofia
 Vergara wore a custom St. John gown covered in exploding sequins, but, 
most importantly, she was wearing her own scent on the red carpet and 
made Ryan Seacrest smell her wrist. 
 Zoe Kazan in red and white stripes.
 
 Zoe Kazan appeared as a red and white striped peppermint sucking candy only in dress form. That’s such a good thing, though. So cool!
