NEW YORK (AP) — Jessica Hecht, the "Special" actress, inherited at least a couple of things from her mother: her sample-size frame, a 2, and — she laughs — "a lot of neurosis."
Her size came in handy as she was deciding on just the right red carpet look for her big night Sunday at the creative arts Emmys, to air Sept. 21 on FX, the day before the main event.
Hecht headed straight to Atelier Caito for Herve Pierre, a nearly 2-year-old collaboration between the Frenchman who styles first lady Melania Trump, and Nicolas Caito, a compatriot and veteran patternmaker.
And her choice? A bicolor black and pink column gown with royal blue line detailing. Hecht declared it perfect in its quirky elegance. She didn't win, but she looked like a million bucks.
