Her Emmy-winning year, Hargitay wowed us with a poppy-colored gown that really showed off her tawny satiny skin. She went all the way by skipping earrings and a necklace, letting her hair flow in easy sexy waves. It takes great confidence to go this simple, and that's why it works.

Debra Messing -- Worst
Frankly, a lot of celebrities would have done quite well to have worn this look. But for Debra, we set the bar a little higher. The muted colors of this gown washed her out, making what should have been a sexy neckline look rather sad. We love her long hair flowing hair and elegant earrings, but they couldn't save a look overwhelmed by a bad color choice.
The Emmys hit the small screen on September 20. Until then, celebrity junkies can feed their need with this look back at the best, and a few of the worst, Emmy winner looks in recent memory.
