The Daytime Emmy Awards have long been a celebration of both television excellence and red carpet glamour. Since their inception in 1974, the awards have evolved into a fashion showcase, with designers vying to dress daytime TV’s most beloved stars. Over the decades, the red carpet has seen a transformation from simple, understated attire to a dazzling display of high fashion, reflecting contemporary trends and the personalities of the characters celebrated. This year, at the 51st Daytime Emmy Awards held at the prestigious Bonaventure Hotel in Los Angeles, the spotlight was on designer Kevan Hall, who dressed the stars of “The Bold & Beautiful” in stunning, custom-made gowns, continuing the tradition of merging daytime television with high fashion.
Jennifer Gareis, nominated for Best Supporting Actress in a Daytime Drama Series, graced the red carpet in a breathtaking lilac racer gown by Kevan Hall. The gown featured a 3-dimensional floral bodice that cascaded into a luxurious silk taffeta skirt with chic cargo pockets, blending elegance with modern practicality. Jennifer’s 11-year-old daughter, Sophie, joined her in a matching Kevan Hall creation—a lilac 3-dimensional floral bell-shaped bustier dress, perfectly complementing her mother’s ensemble. Their coordinated looks were a testament to Hall’s exquisite craftsmanship and attention to detail.

Ashley Jones, who made a notable guest appearance in “The Bold & Beautiful,” was a vision in red. She wore a ruby peony bustier gown made of silk organza, another masterpiece by Kevan Hall. The gown’s rich hue and delicate fabric highlighted Ashley’s elegance and grace. Her 7-year-old son, Hayden, accompanied her in a classic black tuxedo, his pocket square matching his mother’s striking gown, creating a harmonious and sophisticated appearance.
