Reminder: What Kim Kardashian Wore to the Emmys in 2009

T minus three days until the Emmys, but don't worry: That leaves plenty of time to binge-watch all the best nominated shows before finding out who takes home the statues. While we wait to see what Issa Rae, Millie Bobby Brown, and the rest of the nominees wear to the show, we figured we'd take a walk down memory lane to revisit what a certain reality star wore to the event almost 10 years ago.
In 2009, Kim Kardashian attended the Emmys in a white one-shoulder Ina Soltani gown, along with oversize hoop earrings and a matching white Swarovski clutch. Sister Kourtney also attended that year, wearing a strapless BCBG dress while pregnant with her first child, Mason. Kim also returned to the Emmys the following year, 2010, in another white gown, this time by Marchesa, with mom Kris Jenner in tow. Scroll down to see the throwback red carpet looks.
