Red Carpet Diplomacy at the Emmys: Fashion as a Form of Resistance The 78th Primetime Emmy Awards ceremony was marked by an air of somber respect, with many attendees wearing black in honor of Bob Mackie, a nine time Emmy winner and iconic fashion designer.
Amidst this sea of mourning, some celebrities defied convention, using their red carpet looks as a form of resistance against the industry's usual glamour. The trend towards bold, avant garde designs was striking.
Zendaya stunned in a custom Versace gown featuring an intricate, 3D printed design, while Elle Fanning opted for a daring, deconstructed look from Alexander McQueen.
