The 2020 Primetime Emmy Awards may not have had a red carpet, but it still brought Us some seriously incredible celebrity style!
On Sunday, September 20, the 72nd annual event took place virtually due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Though most A-listers tuned in from their homes, a few stopping by the Los Angeles stage at the Staples Center, which led to a wide variety of looks, from Pjs to ball gowns. But there were five stars in particular whose fashion stood out beyond the rest. Zendaya, Reese Witherspoon, Padma Lakshmi, Jennifer Aniston and Tracee Ellis Ross all donned head-turning numbers that made up for the lack of red carpet.
The Euphoria star was excited to get all dolled up and it showed! Her taffeta gown was truly a unique confection. And while Aniston went for something more subtle, it never gets old seeing her slay in her trademark sleek black dress.
