As the saying goes, the bigger the risk, the bigger the reward. But are these ensembles just too outrageous for the red carpet? You decide!
Just six days after the unprecedented Sept. 13 Met Gala served up some truly eye-popping outfits—excuse us as we start sewing our faceless Kim Kardashian-inspired Halloween costume—the stars have done it again and took the biggest fashion risks of the year at the 2021 Emmys.
The Crown's Emma Corrin seemed to make a note of Kim K's viral ensemble and opted for a full-body monochromatic outfit complete with a "swim cap" hair covering and long gloves, topped off with claw-like black nails for an instantly iconic ensemble. The rest of the risk-taking The Crown cast—Gillian Anderson and Josh O'Connor—served up some best, albeit head-scratching, looks on the carpet. Let's just say, we certainly need more of Gillian's Chloé crop top in our lives!
WandaVision nominee Kathryn Hahn wore a bewitching black two-piece tied together with a very large belt and an emerald necklace that we couldn't take our eyes off of.
Plus, Aidy Bryant brought the definitive house down thanks to a fall-inspired custom Simone Rocha look that even her chic Shrill character Annie would be proud of. Genius: Aretha star and Emmy nominee Cynthia Erivo dazzled in a white leather halter dress with blue feather details, hot off of her fiery white two piece ensemble at the Met Gala last week.
And, who can forget This Is Us' Chris Sullivan, nominated for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series, twinning with his wife Rachel Sullivan?
