There
certainly was a dominating look to the red carpet hairstyles for the
Emmy Awards this year … the elegant updo is back. We've become
accustomed to seeing hair being worn down at red carpet events so it was
a pleasant surprise to see so many fabulous updos!
Girl
of the moment, Zoe Deschanel, chose a stunning vintage inspired red
carpet hairstyle that worked perfectly with her Reem Acra lilac, floor
length gown. Her hair was pulled back and given lots of lift at the
root, this was pinned in the centre of the head; the lengths of her hair
were then rolled at the nape of the neck and pinned up. Such a cute
look that was made famous by the Hollywood greats of the 1950s.
Mad
Men actress, Jessica Pare, also took inspiration from the 1950's; her
makeup and red carpet hairstyle looked very Grace Kelly. She wore a
stunning retro updo with beautiful dark glossy locks and a beautiful
white, Grecian Jason Wu gown … her styling ensured she looked every inch
a vinatge vixen. We have to say … we are LOVING these vintage inspired
red carpet hairstyles for the Emmy Awards, ladies. Kudos!
Another
updo that had taken inspiration from vintage styles was worn by
Julianne Hough. Wearing a stunning sea foam Georges Hobeika Couture
gown, Julianne added 1920's finger waves to a faux bob. The style looks
simply stunning with her newly blonde shade, especially as we are used
to seeing Julianne with dark, long locks left down. The faux bob is a
great way of trying out a shorter style without the commitment of having
your hair cut off and its so easy to do. Try this look out with our
easy faux bob hair tutorial.
Hayden
Panettiere looked lovely in a gold-embroidered Marchesa gown with a
blue tulle overlay. With such a detailed dress, Hayden's messy high bun
worked perfectly as this drew all the attention to stunning back detail
of the dress.
We
are loving the mass return of the updo and with many more red carpet
events fast approaching, we can’t wait to see more updos springing up on
the celebs. Which of the red carpet hairstyles for the Emmy Awards was
