Dressed for Emmy Success

Kirstie Alley is planning to reprise her accessory statement from last year’s Emmy Awards. Not the one thanking her husband, Parker Stevenson, but the ruby and diamond jewelry she wore. She thought that they brought her luck, so for Sunday’s show, she has borrowed another handful of red and white sparklers from Bulgari in Beverly Hills. Presenter Judith Light will be a-drip with emeralds and diamonds from Lakin et Cie. Her Eva Chun dress from I. Magnin is heavy glamour--22 pounds worth. The black turtleneck body-hugger with a thigh-high slit is covered in tiny black beads, called caviar beading by the designer. At a Westwood Marquis pre-award reception Tuesday night, several nominees told Listen how they found their award-show garb: Conchata Ferrell of “L.A. Law” picked up a simple black evening dress from the Forgotten Woman (one of her on-screen sources) and a sequin jacket from Audrey Jones. Alice Ghostley counted on “Designing Women” designing man Cliff Chally to get her “gussied up” in a white beaded dress. Kay Lenz relied on “Reasonable Doubts” costume designer Marcee Smith for a black, beaded, lace dress. Nancy Cartwright, the voice of Bart Simpson, went out on her own to buy an hourglass-shaped sequin dress. What would Bart say about the dress? “He’d say ‘Woo-hoo Mama!’ ” Cartwright whooped.
