Best-Dressed on the Emmy Red Carpet

Bejeweled and sparkling, skin tight and strapless, celebs on the Emmy red carpet Sunday were a showcase of current trends, vintage faves and surgical enhancement. Shopperati.com ranked the looks and came up with the top 10:

#1: Heidi Klum: Kind of not fair, since she donned – what – six, seven outfits? But the gunmetal gray asymmetrical Armani Prive number on the red carpet and the incredible one-shouldered multi-hued gown on the stage. Gorgeous. 

#2-#3, a tie – Mariska Hargitay and Teri Hatcher: We couldn’t decide between two bright yellow gowns on two top actresses. Desperate Housewives’ Hatcher wore a Monique Lhuillier strapless gown with ruffles. Law & Order SVU star Hargitay wore a one-shouldered Carolina Herrera.

#4: Kate Walsh: The Private Practice star was ultra-glam in a waist-chinched gown with alternating ribbons of black satin and crystals. A black satin bow at the bodice was a nice touch.

#5: Christina Applegate: She shimmered in an asymmetrical ice blue-hued metallic gown with a bowed train by Reem Acra. Kudos to Applegate for being fabulous after a recent bout with breast cancer.

#6: Sandra Oh: The Grey’s Anatomy star wore a lovely Oscar de la Renta gown – a black lacy overlay, satin ribbon-tied waist, 5.5 carat (each) emerald-cut diamonds by Bulgari.

#7, #8 and #9: The other Desperate Housewives steal the show. Nicolette Sheridan was stunning in Angel Sanchez’ strapless purple gown, Felicity Huffman sparkled in a Reem Acra body-hugging gown and Marcia Cross looked precious in a ballerina length, full-skirted dress with jeweled embroidery.

#10: A shout-out to Brooke Shields in her Badgley Mischka strapless pink gown with a ruffled flowing train.

Honorable mentions to Jean Smart, Kyra Sedgwick and Jennifer Love Hewitt for graceful classic glamour.
