Let’s be honest: no one really remembers who took home the winged statue, do they? The real competition is on the red carpet.
The Emmys were held in LA yesterday and while there were some predictable winners (The Sopranos for best drama, Entourage’s Jeremy Piven for best supporting actor in a comedy) and a few surprises (My Name Is Earl’s Jaime Pressly beat out Ugly Betty’s Vanessa Williams for best supporting actress in a comedy), all eyes were on the fashions. Let the judging begin.
It Colour: Red
Dresses, lips and nails got a dose of scarlet fever.

Celebrities channelled the screen sirens of yesteryear with pinned-back curls, red lips and red nails.

Fashion Trend: Strapless Dress + Sparkly Earrings = Pretty (Safe) Outfit
It was the dominant look of the evening. We got bored.

What Was She Thinking?
Meredith, is that you? Seriously? We feel sorry for whoever was sitting behind you. And as for you, Hayden, well, you got the glowing skin just right. That's something.
