After last year's Emmy's-from-home, our favourite celebrities are back at werk on the red carpet.

Unlike last year, there is "a limited audience of nominees and their guests", but that hasn't stopped everyone from rocking the red carpet. 

King of the Emmys himself, RuPaul Charles, appeared moderately understated in comparison to his fashion on the show. After winning Outstanding Competition Program for Drag Race, Charles is now the most decorated black artist in the history of the Emmys.

Nicole Byer totally nailed it in this gorgeous purple gown with piping far too beautiful to ever appear on her show.
