Best Emmys Beauty Looks From 20 Years Ago

These Were the Very Best Looks of the Emmys 20 Years Ago

It's been 20 years since the 1999 Emmys, and celebrities still enlist their glam teams to show off their best hair and makeup looks. In the '90s, the trends were a little different, with the stars favouring brick-coloured lipsticks, bouncy blowouts, and thin brows, but they looked stunning nonetheless.

As this year's award ceremony approaches, we've rounded up the best beauty looks from the same night 20 years ago so you can see how far these stars have come. Ahead, you'll see Sarah Jessica Parker's iconic curls, Lucy Liu's brown-hued '90s makeup, and Halle Berry's classic pixie cut, among others.
