As Hollywood’s small screen fashionistas gear up for another stylish night on 64th Primetime Emmy Awards red carpet, we are looking forward to breaking down all the red carpet fashion hits and misses. Other than best and worst dressed, another very popular category in red carpet fashion discussion is the sexiest dress category.
