Watch: Emmy Awards 2021: Huge night for UK stars as The Crown and Ted Lasso dominate. 

After going virtual last year, the Emmy’s 2021 kicked off in person last night, meaning a return to red carpet appearances from some of our favourite TV stars. 

Following last week’s incredible fashion moments at the Met Gala, we were expecting big things, and the looks, while a little more subtle, certainly didn’t disappoint. 

Now in its 73rd year, the event, hosted by Cedric the Entertainer for the first time, saw big wins for The Crown, Ted Lasso, and I May Destroy You, and as well as scooping their fair share of awards, the Brits also rocked it on the red carpet with Kate Winslet, Olivia Coleman and Michaela Coel all doing themselves proud in the style stakes.

And toss that matching sweatsuit in the trash, too, while you’re at it. According to the top runway fashion trends of the season, going bold and bright is pretty much the only option—and TBH, I’m all for it.

Here’s a little pro tip from me to you: If you want to be a step ahead of the top trends, always look to next season’s biggest identifiers.
