The 2019 Emmys red carpet was packed with pretty pastels, sparkling sequins and a surprising abundance of Valentine’s Day-ready reds and pinks. From Regina King and Jameela Jamil’s Easter egg-hued ensembles to a duo of almost-matching “This Is Us” stars, check out our style superlatives from the show below.
1
Prettiest Princess
From “Fleabag” to fashion star! Phoebe Waller-Bridge scooped up several awards in this lovely embellished Monique Lhuillier gown that flashed nearly as much cleavage as her on-screen alter ego’s iconic black jumpsuit.
2
Hottest Harness
It’s about time that someone picked up where Timothée Chalamet and Michael B. Jordan left off — and Regina King was just the woman for the job, showing us a ladylike way to wear the red carpet harness in her pale blue Jason Wu.

Sexiest Villainess
Zendaya channeled Poison Ivy in this gorgeous green Vera Wang Collection gown with a thigh-high slit, her red waves swept over one shoulder for added dramatic effect.
4
Mintiest Moment
Jameela Jamil must be in a very good place with her stylist. The star looked stunning in her one-shouldered mint Monique Lhuillier gown, which she accented with a bold coral lip for a bit of contrast.
5
Cutest Cupid
Red and pink colour-blocked dresses were absolutely everywhere on this year’s red carpet. Our choice for best execution of the trend? It’s a tie between “This Is Us” co-stars Mandy Moore (in Brandon Maxwell) and Susan Kalechi Watson (in Badgley Mischka).

Schitt-iest Outfit
Moira Rose, is that you? “Schitt’s Creek” favourite Catherine O’Hara looked like, well, a glamorous former soap-opera star in her black-and-white colour-blocked Greta Constantine gown, which could’ve been plucked straight from her character’s closet.

Coolest Crop Top
“Russian Doll” star Greta Lee’s pistachio green Christopher John Rogers two-piece stood out on the carpet in all the right ways.
8
Most Likely to Wind Up on a Prayer Candle
Gwendoline Christie’s Gucci gown might not be everyone’s cup of tea, but there’s no denying the “Game of Thrones” star looked downright godlike on the red carpet.
