Emmys 2014: The best of the red carpet looks

The Emmys’ red carpet was one of the best displays of fashion and style in recent Hollywood history.

The looks were modern and not overwhelming. These women wore the clothes; the clothes didn’t wear them.

Red was the hot color and the best red dresses had unusual details — whimsical red crystal butterflies at the neckline of Claire Danes’ Givenchy stunner, for example, and sexy burgundy patent leather strap details on Julia Louis-Dreyfus’ raspberry red Carolina Herrera gown.

The night’s other best looks were Kerry Washington’s Prada column gown, Michelle Dockery’s color-blocked blush pink, blue and green column with overlapping folds by Rosie Assoulin and Allison Williams’ pink tulle Giambattista Valli couture gown with a bright yellow belt and off-kilter bow.
