Christian Siriano designed it and says it was a collaboration. (Source: http://celebritybabies.people.com/2016/09/19/emmys-2016-anna-chlumsky-red-carpet/.) I think less collaboration might be in order next time.

@ChynnaBlue- I love seeing Christian Soriano interviewed. I've watched hm since PR ANd he really seems to have grown up and come into his own.
His interviews SOUND AS THOUGH the last thing in the world he's thinking about is any sort of body shaming or negativity. His references to designing for his mother and sister are quite touching.
@Chi-town girlI think the fabric is quite beautiful, and although I'm not overly fond of the look, there are lots of things I can think of that I find more "appalling".

@violann, Siriano is known for working with plus-size women and women left out by other designers, so I was shocked to see his name on this one. I think, based on what I read, that the "I hate my body" issues were coming from Anna, not from him. It sounded like she really wanted odd shapes and to hide because she was uncomfortable with her post-baby body. That's sad. Hollywood sets unfair expectations on new mothers and expects them to pop a baby out, then look 10 pounds lighter than they did before they had the baby just weeks afterward.

I guess it's OK to stand in judgement of what people wear when it's your own judgement.

@Chi-town girl, Thank you so much for creating this post and providing all the great photos!
My personal favorites were:
Kristen Bell - Beautiful Autumn Floral by Zuhair Murad, cut perfect for her petite frame
Angela Bassett - Stunning in Yellow by Christian Siriano (Congrats to her hubby Courtney B. Vance on his well-deserved Emmy win, looking sharp himself)
Priyanka Chopra - Radiant in Red, designed especially for her by Jason Wu
Laverne Cox - Golden Goddess in a sexy number by Naeem Khan
Olivia Culpo - Gorgeous in a strapless, shell embroidered Zac Posen creation
Padma Lakshmi - Dazzling in Sleek Silver by Naeem Khan
Niecy Nash - Gorgeous and Glam in strapless white confection by Christian Siriano
Emily Ratajkowski - Smoldering in Deep Sapphire by Zac Posen
Kerry Washington - Maternity never looked better - wearing Brandon Maxwell, the hot new designer right now
But my #1 Favorite goes to Sarah Paulson, Glorious in Emerald Green Prada with stunning rectangular earrings custom made for her by Wilfredo Rosado. After being nominated how many times, she finally wins a well-deserved Emmy for her great portrayal of Marcia Clark (who happened to accompany her that night) in The People vs. O.J. Simpson

@MissRose722 - you're welcome! One of those 'hot' designers, Naeem Khan sells a ready to wear line, small/capsule collection at HSN. I've watched his shows in the past, stunning designs & details.
