At the Primetime Emmy Awards — AKA the biggest night in TV — celebs really displayed their star power on the red carpet. Historically, the Emmy Awards have been a sartorial beacon of high-glamour looks and the 2024 leg, held on Jan. 15 in LA, was no different. The 75th show was painted with a rainbow of bold hues, from pinks and reds to vivid greens.

Nominee Quinta Brunson, for example, wore a vibrant magenta number with a dainty bow, subtly leaning into coquettecore. Meanwhile, Camila Morrone of Daisy Jones and the Six chose a red-hot number that evoked Old Hollywood glam.

Even when stars rocked neutral ensembles, they added interest with playful textures and silhouettes. Case in point: Ayo Edebiri, who wore a sculptural strapless number — in leather, no less. Meanwhile, Issa Rae wore a decadent cream kaftan covered entirely in feathers.

Ahead, all the best-dressed celebrities.
