Yes, Celebs Served Looks for the Virtual Emmys—Here’s What They Wore

No red carpet, no problem. Like many of us, celebrities will take any excuse to dress up for a change, and the Emmys is certainly the perfect opportunity—even if it's virtual. Nominees are tuning in from their own homes, but that didn't stop them from dressing to the nines.
Tracee Ellis Ross, for instance, stayed true to her bold red carpet style in a gold Alexandre Vauthier dress. (Bonus points for her mini red carpet!) With heavy hitters like Reese Witherspoon, Regina King, and Jennifer Aniston nominated, the night promises to be exciting. Scroll down to see what celebrities wore to the virtual Emmys in 2020.

After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2015, where she is now the Associate Director of Fashion News.
