Is there anything more exciting than a red carpet? While the runway is where we see looks for upcoming seasons, the red carpet is an array of the current season’s hottest trends, as interpreted by the A-listers we love so much.
And the 2021 Emmy Awards was no exception.
Stars strutted out in jaw-dropping couture looks from some of our favorite designers, showcasing stylish trends in astonishing colorways. One of this year’s favorite trends: the sky-high thigh slit.
Not only does a thigh slit make a gown more wearable and moveable, but it also lends a sexy statement. Here are the best interpretations we saw of this trend at the Emmy Awards:
