2005 Emmy Awards (57th
Annual) Red Carpet Fashion
The 2005 Emmy Awards, held in the Shrine Auditorium at the LA Coliseum,
was filled with starlets glowing in all shades of color. The current fall
fashion color themes were in full force on the red carpet, including deep
medium blues, forest green, plums and rich chocolate. Also prevalent were
seashore tones in forest green. golds and taupe, ice blue and off-white.
Halle Berry wore a georgeous high low hemline, strapless sweetheart gown
with a cascading chiffon front flounce, which wispered pale blue under-skirting.
Currently filming the 3rd Xmen movie in Canada, she presented at the Emmy’s
and no doubt will return to the set ASAP. Eva Longoria had no idea that
the swimsuit she wore to the VMA awards would cause such a stir, but she
must have anticipated the interest in her gown choice at this year’s Emmy’s
red carpet as she stole a look from 1960s fashion in a flirty coral dress
by Sanchez replete with a wide collard Grecian neckline and deep V front.
Debra Messing; a favorite red carpet winner, wore an Elie Saab dark cholocate
evening dress with a sequin bodice and mid-V back. From the hit show CSI,
Marg Helgenberger wore a light purple lace halter dress with satin waist
sash by Monique Lillier, shoes by Stuart Weitzman and a Fendi evening bag.
A favorite silhouette of the evening was the empire gown shown best on Teri
Hatcher of Desperate Housewives. She glowed in a midnight blue strapless
gathered empire dress. A Jay Mendal gown made exclusively for Teri, featured
a 2 inch hand beaded sash around the bustline and flowing chiffon skirt.

Vera Wang, and Lorraine Bracco in a Douglas Hannant green embroidered gown.

2003 EMMY AWARDS (55th ANNUAL) |
Emmys
Fashion 2003... Many of the stars at the 55th Emmy's awards
show took their style queues from the color palettes of the New York Spring
2004 fashion shows. The front rows glowed in evening gowns of sunset hues
like fuschia, mango, pinks, and blues. Creamy neutrals also shined on award
nominees Lena Olin and Jennifer Garner of Alias, both exquisite in ivory
and pale peach satin dresses.
Presenter Jeri Ryan made a dramatic entrance in her revealing silk charmeuse
evening gown of silvery cream with deep v-neck plunge. Plunging v-neck gowns,
popular last year, were back again along with a new evening trend towards
dropped waists. Dropped waist dresses accented the figures of Christina
Applegate, in a pale blue pleated chiffon formal dress by Valentino, and
Courtney Thorne Smith, in a classic Herve Leger elongated crystal tiered
black dress. Sarah Jessica Parker color-matched with husband Matthew Broderick's
dusty rose tie as she stunned the Emmy audience in a pink Chanel confection
of a ballgown. Ruched and gathered in chiffon, tulle, and sequins, the gown
had a subdued high/low hemline, showcasing her famous feet.
Debra Messing claimed her Emmy award clad in an Elie Saab evening ball gown
with sweeping back train, Jimmy Choo heels, Cartier ring, and H. Stern chandelier
earrings. Strapless and gathered at the side, the amber and copper design
of the dress perfectly framed her winning smile. Notable fashion marks for
the men went to winner Jon Stewart's trim black suit and subtly sparkling
black tie and Joe Pantoliano's vest and tie in light blue satin with white
polka dots. Gorgeous gowns and tuxedos abounded, but this year's fashion
focus at the Emmy's was all ears: dripping chandelier earrings in precious
jewels. Best chandelier earring styles included Debra Messing's triple-tiered
pink tourmaline teardrops and Jane Kaczmarek gold arabesque shoulder dusters.

2002... The fall trends prevailed at the 2002 Emmy Awards,

overlays, and chiffon and satiny dresses. The most prevalent trends were

peach gowns for the women. Fashion winners included Debra Messing from Will

| Oscars® 2002
... The 74th Academy Awards® from the
Kodak Theatre in Hollywood Oscars® fashion for 2002 was conservative
and glamorous, acknowledging the tragic events of September 2001 while forging

"a billion people," as one overwhelmed winner stammered, and Hollywood
was dressed for the occassion both on the Red Carpet
and in the Show. Fashion highlights: The women wore lots of black gowns,
mostly strapless and/or sheer, and the men were also donned mainly in black
tuxedos. Renee Zellweger, Reese Witherspoon, Naomi Watts, and Marcia
Gay Harden wore black, while Halle Berry, who won Best Actress for Monster's
Ball, wore cranberry with sheer and leaf appliques, Nichole Kidman wore
pale pink, and Sissy Spacek broke ranks with a suit jacket combination.

Formalwear Winter/Spring 2002 New Commitments bring New Style...
Perhaps no formalwear season of the last 30 years is more important to the
fashion industry than the Year 2002 season - designers, retailers, and boutiques
anticipate a surge of special occassion shopping as American consumers reaffirm
their commitment to family, community, and charity through weddings and
events. The New
Fashion Values of 2002 have already influenced formalwear styles for
prom dresses, bridal
gowns and bridesmaid dresses,
and special occassion
evening gowns.
The first influence is the highlighted bodice; designers this season are
placing more emphasis on fitted shapes with striking color and embroidery
or ornaments. In our cover shot from Macy's Passport '01, Jessica
McClintock's fairy green, plunging v-neck gown is crisply molded and
matched to the extravagant floral inlay of the skirt. Also shown is the
deep backline and decorative mosaic design of another Jessica McClintock
creation. With the globalization
of fashion trends, simplifying and highlighting the bodice in formalwear
designs broadens the designer's reach across clutural expectations.
The second influence is the bold feminine shape; designers are using sheath,
trumpet,
princess,
mermaid,
and a-line
styling to create curvy dresses, many with corseted or structured undergarments,
reasserting the womanly look in this season's formal line. Gone are the
demure straight silhouettes and the tailored workwear looks of the late
1990s. The post-9/11/01 woman attends her public as a proud yet traditionally
sensual creature.
Which leads to the third influence, the new emphasis on soft, feminine expression
through silk and chiffon
overlays, lace
bordering, and beaded
or rhinestone
hems, lines, and straps. While the 2002 party-goer is simply elegant with
brilliant structural accents, the 2002 bride dons a flowing gown overlayed
with embroidered or appliqued sheath. Soft satin silk is the fabric of choice,
with form-enhancing embellishments to match the wearer's personality.
