The big stars of the small screen are making their way down the red carpet at this year's Emmy Awards.

From New Zealand's own Melanie Lynsky, nominated for her role in Yellowjackets, to the stars of multi-nominated Succession, Ted Lasso and The White Lotus, the famous faces of our favourite shows have traded their suits, sports gear and resort wear for the most glamorous looks in Hollywood today.

Here are the best dressed as they arrive on the red carpet outside LA's Microsoft Theatre.

Melanie Lynskey

Kiwi actress Melanie Lynskey has arrived in a mint green gown fit for a winner. We have all our fingers crossed she takes home the lead actress in a drama series gong today!

Reese Witherspoon

Reese Witherspoon is taking us back to the bend and snap days with the look. If it was in pink we might just transport right back to 2001 when our biggest problem was which fluffy pen to use at school.

Sydney Sweeney
