For the Emmys red carpet,Lily Jameswore achainmail Versace dress that just screamed early aughts. “It’s Versace and it’s just heaven,” James toldPEOPLE and EW’s Red Carpet Livepre-show co-hosts Janine Rubenstein and Jeremy Parsons on the red carpet. “It was designed for me and I was kind of a part of the color choices and building it together so it’s just unreal. I’m obsessed with every tiny bit of it.”

For Disney’s post-Emmys celebration, though, James opted for a shorter look that was a little more daring. The black and gold mini dress was full of cutouts and texture, hugging her body in all the right places. She wore black and metallic heels to complete the look.
