Lauren Conrad - Emmys 2008 Red Carpet

Lauren Conrad is all smiles in a navy chiffon gown she designed herself for the 2008 Primetime Emmy Awards held at Nokia Theatre on Sunday (September 21) in Los Angeles.

The 22-year-old Hills star is set to present at the ceremony. Lauren and last season’s Project Runway winner Christian Siriano also designed gowns for the trophy girls this year.

Her gown is very elegant!

i would like to ask if anyone on here actually knows what a designer is….lauren conrad did not make that dress herself. she has even said she can’t sketch properly so what exactly did she do? pick out a fabric? a color? demonstrate with words and hand gestures about what she wants her dress to look like??? then send it to the same manufacturers who make her crappy lauren conrad collection?? wooo big deal! anyone could do that! she is not a designer! she has no technical or creative skills…her stuff is boring and completely uninspired. she needs work experience with a designer for a few years NOT at a magazine and PR company like she has done. lauren conrad is a joke.

I think she looks beautiful,she did a really good job on her design.Its nice and understated it may not have the wow factor but I still think she looks stunning.

Marissa,i think your just jelous,she looks really well and so what if she didn’t actually stitch it herself im sure she designed it herself which does take some skill,there’s patterns and lots of other things that go into making the dress.Your attitude comes across like your totally jelous that its not you.

she looks pretty, but this is kinda boring. but nice =) and i love the hills

I like her dress.

zoom in closely and see what a complete embaressment this girl is doing to herself…. this dress is so cheaply made, plus have u looked at her sketches in us weekly, i would have been thrown out of my class if i presented something like that to my teacher! this girl is so pathetic and has absoloutely NO TALENT! it makes me sad to think that there r so many designers out there with real skill and talent and love for what they do and this girl is putting **** on the red carpet next to stunning couture gowns…Lauren u should be ashamed of the crap u r putting out there

The dress is nice, but why is she at the Emmy’s? She stars in fake reality TV..oh goody.

what is she doing at the emmy’s

SHE’S A BEAUTIFUL GIRL…..AND I LOVE THE DRESS……SHE’S REFRESHING, AND REAL……NO FAKE HAIR, FAKE BOOBS…ALL THE FAKE STUFF LIKE JESSICA SIMPSON……STAY REAL LAUREN!!

I loved the dress. It was one of my favorite looks of the night. Hal Rubenstien was on one of the morning programs today trashing it. I think he is jealous and a has been.

It’s okay. Nothing special. It doesn’t look like it fits right.

how could she say “that’s my line”? (or something like that)
it’s not what you do when you’re going live! poor david boreanaz he had to speak with her ¬¬

SHE DOESN’T DESERVE TO BE IN THAT COMPANY!

she has no imagination when it comes to designing and fashion. she picks basic colors like black, white, navy. all her clothes are boring and safe. take a risk, geez!

at least she tried!

Lauren is BEAUTIFUL!

Seriously, I think Christian Siriano and Rami Kashou from last season’s Project Runway should’ve been the designers for the Emmys. There’s nothing special or eye popping about her dress. Something we’ve seen before, nothing new. Mind as well just get a designer who’s proven he or she has the talent to design AND has actually shown different variations in ALL areas of fashion.

I think that it is really sad how there are so many negative comments about the opportunity that Lauren has been given and her talent. I think that she has worked her butt off to get where she is right now. So what that her parents have money, she faced the same things that everyone else faced. I think she should be inspiration to those of you who think that she doesn’t deserve what she has, she didn’t let anything stand in her way of what she wanted for her life and instead of putting someone down because they may have more than you go out and get your own!!!! She looks beautiful and always does. The dress that she wore and the trophy girls wore was classy and very appropriate for the Emmy’s those who does not appreciate that have never watched the emmy’s!!!!!!

What a lot of sour grapes, I give Lauren kudos for not being one of the many others that flaunt famous designers in the contest of who spent more and got the best designer. These flamboyant red carpet prima donnas spend thousands on a dress they will wear once. The dress is pleasant and she looks as good as anyone without being phoney. All these sourgrapes show lack of sensitivity and probably a bit of jealousy. Her choice of dates was another point to her own grounded self awareness. Nothing phoney about this girl.

I LOVE THIS DRESS!!!

Love it! she looks very pretty..some people may not like it but I absolutely love it!
