The 76th annual Emmy Awards are on Sunday, and while the last few years brought with them much change (the 72nd were hosted amid pandemic-induced chaos by Jimmy Kimmel to an empty room and no red carpet, while the 74th were delayed due to Hollywood labor disputes and strikes), this year promises a return to tradition: We can expect television’s finest together in one room once again — more specifically, the Peacock Theatre in Los Angeles — with father-son duo Eugene and Dan Levy playing host.
Each year, people wait with bated breath to see gowns aplenty (with the exception of 2020’s luxe pajama-wearing guests by virtual means), using them as inspo for months ahead or even as reference points in later years. With this in mind, we took a trip down memory lane, back to the likes of SJP’s feathered Oscar de la Renta from 2000 and that 2016 Emilia Clarke Versace number, all the way to Simona Tabasco’s positively delightful Marni earlier in 2024.
Over the last two-and-a-bit decades, celebrations of television shows — ranging from Friends and Sex and the City in the ‘90s and ‘00s to Grey’s Anatomy and Game of Thrones in the 2010s, up until The Crown and Outstanding Comedy Series 2024 nominee The Bear in recent years — have resulted in some of Hollywood’s greatest red carpet fashion moments. Of the many winning Emmy looks, there was Jennifer Aniston’s white, strapless Chanel from 2004, Kerry Washington’s orange Prada from 2014, and, of course, Zendaya’s show-stopping green custom Vera Wang from 2019.
Click through our list of the best Emmys looks of all time (or at least the last 24 years) ahead.
