A style success(ion).
TV’s brightest stars stole a bit of New York Fashion Week‘s spotlight as they strolled a honey-hued carpet outside Los Angeles’ Microsoft Theater at the 74th Emmy Awards on Monday. While some celebrities sported classic looks that will undoubtedly stand the test of time, others pushed the (awards show) envelope and dared to be bold.
Someone please flag Mabel, Charles and Oliver and tell the “Only Murders in the Building” trio that we’re staking our claim to covering only murders on the red carpet. These are the evening’s best-dressed stars (in no particular order) who absolutely killed it.

Emmys 2022 winners list:‘Succession,’ ‘Ted Lasso,’ ‘The White Lotus’ lead nominations
Zendaya
*Exhales.*
And this is fashion euphoria! Zendaya was the personification of glamour in a black strapless Valentino ballgown featuring a bow at its cinched waist. Her soft makeup and updo was the perfect complement.
Reese Witherspoon
Making a very strong case for a Reese Witherspoon Navy, the “Morning Show” actress arrived wearing a glitzy Giorgio Armani sequined gown. What are the chances Elle Woods would consider blue as the new pink?
Amanda Seyfried
“The Dropout” star is a stand out.
Seyfried slicked back her light locks and let her sparkly pink gown by Armani Privé be the show-stopping center of attention. The actress seemed aware of the style splash she was making and said on E!’s red carpet pre-show that she felt like a mermaid.

Lily James
The “Pam & Tommy” star and Versace spokesmodel turned to the Italian fashion house for TV’s biggest night. James’ copper-colored, bedazzled gown in a classically form-fitting Versace silhouette, and her matching fiery locks are complete perfection.
Elle Fanning
It might’ve been her first time at the Emmys, but “The Great” star knows her way around a best-dressed list, and it shows.
Fanning told Laverne Cox during E!’s red carpet that series’ costume designer Sharon Long dreamt up her Old Hollywood-inspired look: a strapless, satiny black and peach gown with a two-toned overskirt.

Issa Rae
Sleek, understated, without any conceivable reason to be “Insecure.”
Issa Rae stunned in a simple black and white Sergio Hudson spaghetti strap gown with an immaculate fit and cutout. She complemented the elegant look with a blunt bob, underscoring her effortless chicness.
Quinta Brunson
The “Abbott Elementary” star and creator understood the assignment and gets and A+ from us.
Brunson donned a metallic, custom Dolce & Gabbana gown to the Emmys with a slinky skirt that let the ornate bodice shine. Looking like a pretty penny is a trend we can make cents of.

Andrew Garfield
And this is exactly why we’ve tossed that “no white after Labor Day” rule out the window, out of a speeding car and we’re not turning around!
The “Under the Banner of Heaven” star is a cream dream in a fitted Zegna suit. Dark shades and black dress shoes add dimension to the otherwise monochromatic look.
Toheeb Jimoh
We wholeheartedly believe in the “Ted Lasso” star’s look.
Jimoh’s sash tying at the waist is a welcome breath of fresh air when it comes to a traditional men’s look.
Sarah Paulson
Sarah Paulson’s Louis Vuitton look is so far from a “Horror Story,” but it still makes us scream!
The sharp, clean lines of her cropped top and flowy skirt and perfectly balanced.
