Emily Blunt's Most Stunning Red Carpet Dresses

While Emily Blunt's face has transformed over the years, her red carpet style has remained stylish and just a bit daring. As her fabulous looks on "The Devil Wears Prada 2" press tour have made headlines throughout April 2026, the topic of Blunt's best red carpet gowns of all time has come into conversation. Though the British actor has had a few fashion fails — as every celebrity makes at some point in their career — she consistently dons beautiful dresses with classic silhouettes, flattering colors, and a fair amount of bling.

She's spent over two decades in Hollywood, and Blunt has received numerous accolades for her work in that time — including a Golden Globe award as well as one Oscar and four BAFTA nominations, among many others. As she's attended ceremonies over the years for these honors, Blunt has sported some pretty amazing looks. From haute couture gowns from luxury fashion houses, to beautiful pieces from lesser-known designers, Blunt has worn it all and looked amazing doing so.

Even though Anne Hathaway's "The Devil Wears Prada 2" premiere dress made her look so much younger than the first, Emily Blunt also had a major upgrade from her original "The Devil Wears Prada" premiere look. This time, she swept across the red carpet in a structural Schiaparelli gown from the spring 2026 collection. The dreamlike gown set her apart from the worst-dressed stars at "The Devil Wears Prada 2" premiere, with its many layers of tulle and feathered bodice. 

Emily Blunt stunned in a beautifully tailored Louis Vuitton column dress at the 2026 Golden Globes. The actor, who was nominated for her performance in "The Smashing Machine," looked statuesque in her classic white gown. Blunt's look was simple and understated, but she managed to give us a little drama with a one-shoulder cape overlay. While the column drape has been Blunt's go-to dress shape for years, she always steps up her gowns with something unexpected.

At the premiere of "The Smashing Machine" at the Venice Film Festival in 2025, Emily Blunt turned heads in a Tamara Ralph fall 2025 couture silk and crystal gown. The actor's jeweled gown caught the light beautifully, and its structured bodice made her look like a Roman sculpture. While column dresses are one of Blunt's signature red carpet silhouettes, this silver gown had just enough interest with its sparkle, subtle shape, and light draping, to make it stand out from many of her other looks. 

While the little red dress is the new LBD, Emily Blunt proved you can even put a fresh, timeless twist on a formal red gown. Blunt wore a red column gown from Louis Vuitton to the SAG Awards in 2024, with an ultra-low neckline that transitioned into the waist of the dress. The gown revealed just enough of Blunt's chest to be daring, but wasn't too risqué for such an important night. This gown transformed Blunt into the picture of pure elegance. 

Emily Blunt put yet another daring twist on a traditional column gown at the 2024 BAFTAs. Blunt walked the red carpet in a lace Elie Saab spring 2024 haute couture gown, complete with wide, draping sleeves, and cut-outs along her sides. The nude illusion garments Blunt wore underneath the gown blended in well with her skin tone, allowing the sparkly mesh and lace to shine. Blunt smartly wore her hair in a bun and kept her accessories minimal so as not to distract from the gown's drama.

Emily Blunt leaned into vintage silhouettes for the "Oppenheimer" London premiere. Blunt wore a sequin and fringe gown from Alexander McQueen's fall 2023 collection to the event, which was moved up by an hour at the last minute to ensure that the film's stars could walk the carpet before the 2023 SAG strikes began. Blunt's look was so stunning — with her architectural sleeves and long fringe skirt — that you wouldn't even think she was rushed.

At first glance, the pink custom Michael Kors Collection gown that Emily Blunt wore to the 2019 SAG Awards seems a bit pedestrian. However, once you appreciate the dramatic collar of her gown, the entire look comes together beautifully. Blunt added intrigue to her traditional column gown with structural pink straps that looped around her neck, underneath her arms, and down to the back of her waist. Blunt's gown especially comes to life when you see it from the side or the back — we love a backless moment.

Emily Blunt channeled some fairy tale magic at the Los Angeles premiere of "Mary Poppins Returns" in 2018. The actor, who portrayed the titular character in the film, took to the red carpet in a flowing gown from Yanina Couture. The dress' large puffed sleeves, low back, and skilled draping made the back of the gown look particularly amazing. The princess-like silhouette was different for Blunt, who experimented with other opulent looks all throughout the "Mary Poppins Returns" press tour, but flattered her figure exceptionally well.
