Several stars leaned into bold, dramatic styles this year. Sydney Sweeney turned heads in a strapless crimson Oscar de la Renta gown with jaw dropping 175 carats of Lorraine Schwartz diamonds (necklace, earrings, rings). Jenna Ortega mixed glamour with edge by wearing a jewel and pearl Givenchy “chainmail” top with a thigh-high slit skirt, channeling her darker style vibes.
BLACKPINK’s Lisa delivered a bubblegum pink Lever Couture gown made of layered ribbons, styled like couture cotton candy and matched with pink bedazzled pumps.
Aimee Lou Wood made her Emmys debut in a strapless pale-pink Satin Alexander McQueen gown that evoked rose petals, complete with a dramatic train.
Other red carpet standouts included Selena Gomez in a scarlet Louis Vuitton dress with a sweeping train; Cate Blanchett paying fashion tribute in a backless Giorgio Armani jumpsuit from his final couture collection; and Parker Posey wearing an elegant lavender lace Valentino gown paired with a 45-carat pear-shaped emerald necklace
