Elle Fanning was Emmy-nominated for The Great, which everyone raves about (which I’ve never seen). She decided to pay homage to the costumer on the show, and she got The Great’s costume designer Sharon Long to design a gown for her for the Emmys. The seamstress on The Great actually put this entire dress together. It’s a gorgeous piece of couture and you could tell that Elle felt so honored to wear it. My only note is that the pale pink reads as flesh-colored in most lighting – I kind of think it should have been all-black? But it’s very cool-looking.

A lot of people were talking about Lily James in this Versace. Like Elle, Lily was an Emmy nominee. Unlike Elle, I doubt many were rooting for Lily, especially because she was nominated for playing Pamela Anderson in that messy AF miniseries Pam & Tommy. While this Versace is very flattering on Lily, her styling kind of brings this down? I have no idea what her natural hair color is, but this flat shade of brown is doing her no favors, and neither is the heavy makeup.
