Top fashion moments from the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards 2024 Red Carpet
1. Selena Gomez
At the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards, Selena Gomez becomes a marvelous display of her full-throttle fashion sense in this custom Ralph Lauren Collection gown. The inky black velvet features a hand-embellished pavé on its scoop-like neckline and pools divinely at her feet thanks to its gleaming train.
Eye-catching Tiffany & Co. jewelry finishes off the look: multi-dropper earrings; bracelet stacked; and, of course, multiple stacking rings providing a soaking touch of sparkle to the overall getup. Selena's glam was not far behind as she wore sleek hair tucked neatly behind the ears to pull out the earrings, makeup that featured a smoked-out eye, cheek rosy with blushers, and a peachy nude lip.
2. RuPaul
The red carpet at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards 2024 saw an audacious statement of style coming from RuPaul Charles. It was like an amount of elegance and part cowboy-a unique sophistication in display. He wore a black blazer with silver lapels which struck as perfectly cut to be molded on his body. He finished the look in a cowboy hat and sunglasses: a balance of style and playfulness.
As he emcees RuPaul's Drag Race, which, by the way, had been nominated for Outstanding Reality Competition Program, his style was going to be reflective of that iconic identity celebrating that bond between being rooted and status as a drag legend.
3. Elizabeth Debicki
Elizabeth Debicki embodied peak elegance at the 76th Primetime Emmy Awards in a simple yet stunning black tank dress. The classy gown fit her flawlessly, clearly depicting her great sense of style and simplicity. Along with the chic updo, Elizabeth's hairdo looked elegant, but all the shine was from the dangling earrings.
Nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actress in a Drama Series for her role as Princess Diana in The Crown, she shone like rays of confidence on the red carpet. Elizabeth's minimalist take on fashion highlighted her natural beauty with the ideal proof that sometimes less truly is more in the world of red carpet glamour.

The bold, eye-catching design says much about her sense of fashion while adding a touch of elegance with black minimalist-heeled sandals and gold earrings.
Speaking to Laverne Cox, Ayo shared that her stylist, Danielle Goldberg, took inspiration from the late Italian artist Gaetano Pesce. Nominated for Best Actress in a Comedy Series for The Bear, Ayo proved she is a true fashion star.
