Emma Thompson Wears Flats on the Red Carpet … and Pulls Them Off

Guess she learned her lesson!

After hilariously ditching her heels onstage during last weekend’s Golden Globe Awards, Emma Thompson went the safe route at Saturday night’s SAG Awards, walking the red carpet in flats (Christian Louboutin flats, that is — yes, they exist!).

“They’re so beautiful and I’m so happy,” she told E!’s Giuliana Rancic. “They just happen to be gorgeous.”

And that wasn’t he only unconventional fashion choice she made. Her embellished black cap-sleeve gown, which the best actress nominee revealed was a vintage find from the 1930s! She accessorized with stand-out earrings, a Lauren Merkin clutch and a simple side-swept coif.

With two consecutive fashion wins and lots of quotable moments so far, could Emma give J.Law a run for her awards show #winning money? An esteemed British actress can dream.
