Washington, 36, has proved a red-carpet risk-taker, wearing up-and-coming designers and making atypical choices such as a crystal-covered coral Miu Miu gown for the Oscars. At Tuesday’s pre-Emmy reception, she wore a hot-pink cocktail frock.
Unlike her character on ABC’s “Scandal,” Washington says she doesn’t wear many power-broker pantsuits.
Washington, selected by the magazine editors, works with stylist Erin Walsh.
People then tapped other tastemakers to pick their favorites, including Jennifer Lawrence for her high-fashion style, Jessica Chastain specifically for her red-carpet looks, Kate Bosworth for street style and Zoe Saldana for her denim style.
Photographer Nigel Barker picked It Girl Lily Collins for best up-and-coming style.
People magazine explained why she is the chosen one:Washington and her character on Scandal, Olivia Pope, have little in common except for this: impeccable style that results in haute hit after hit and nary a miss. So, how does she always manage to get it right on the red carpet? "I like to find balance in an outfit where it doesn't feel too much of any one thing," she tells PEOPLE. "It's not dressing like a nun and it's also not dressing like I'm in a swimsuit competition. It's finding the middle ground."
