Emilia Clarke quickly had fans discussing her glam red carpet dress after photos of her 2019 Emmys look went viral. In September of that year, the Game of Thrones actress stunned in a plunging, sleek blue dress, one courtesy of Valentino, but inspired by the iconic Versace gown worn by singer Jennifer Lopez at the 2000 Grammy Awards. Flaunting her stunning figure as she went braless in her low-cut gown, Emilia wound up front-page news for topping the night's style files, although some raised eyebrows at the dress' revealing finish.

Scroll for all the photos. Braving one of her most revealing looks to date, Emilia modeled a strappy, very cut-out dress with a bare-chested feel that still kept classy. Drawing the eye from her cleavage to her toned arms and shoulders, the British-born star wowed as her ruched, v-neck straps fed into a belted detail, with the deep blue fabrics continuing as her gown fell to the floor.

Rocking a mix of silky and opaque materials that hugged her every curve, Emilia dazzled as she wore her hair down, also rocking a dark blue manicure that matched her dress. The "Mother of Dragons" completed her glam with drop earrings and a full face of makeup, sporting dark eyeshadow and a defined lip that highlighted her plump pout. Flashing her pearly whites as she smiled for the cameras, Emilia caught compliments from most replying to The Daily Mail's report, but some wondered about the dress.
Noting that Emilia had personally confirmed drawing inspiration from 55-year-old JLo's 200s dress, one fan asked: "How is this dress inspired by J.Lo's green dress?!?! Just because it's very low cut? It looks nothing like it." Over 400 others agreed.

Meanwhile, over 40 fans upvoted a comment reading: "Is it just me that couldn't go out in a dress so exposing? I'd feel on edge and uncomfortable all night - even if I had her figure." For some, though, the fashion choice was spot-on. Gushing over Emilia Clarke and her dress, one fain gained likes for replying: "Stunning! Love this girl so much. All the Thrones ladies look incredible."
