- Emma Roberts has been wearing fashion-forward styles since the start of the year.
- While promoting "American Horror Story: Delicate," she's worn bold prints and metallic shades.
Emma Roberts has captivated audiences with her TV and movie roles for years.
But off-screen, she's a style star on the red carpet. This year, she's promoted the latest season of her show — "American Horror Story: Delicate" — while wearing fashion-forward tops and skirts, and she's attended red-carpet events in daring dresses.
Roberts has also stepped into the business side of fashion, becoming the face of DSW's Crown Vintage brand in 2022 and starring in a Saks campaign last year.
Here's a look at everything she's worn in 2024 so far, ranked from worst to best.

She sported two Christopher Esber pieces: a black top with a mesh, shawl-style overlay and a gray midi skirt. The latter piece was lined with lace and embellished with sparkling fringe.
The two pieces looked stunning on their own but didn't suit each other. Her blouse may have looked better with sharp jeans, and her skirt would have been more striking if paired with a simpler top.
Roberts completed the outfit with black pumps, a silver cuff, and a slicked-back hairstyle.
Her mismatched bold prints stood out on the "Today" show, but her shoes didn't.

Versace designed her two-piece outfit, which included a yellow collared shirt in a rose print and a pink checkered skirt decorated with the same florals in a baby-blue shade.
Though the outfit was fun and unexpected, her shoes were outdated. She wore pointed pump sandals with PVC straps — a style that was most popular around 2017.
Strappy nude sandals could have provided the same understated effect but in a way that would have been more classic than trendy.

Her Giambattista Valli dress featured a silver sleeveless top covered in sequins and a straight white skirt that passed her ankles. It was chic and sparkling and paired perfectly with her Judith Leiber bag and diamond earrings.
Her feathered shawl, on the other hand, was slightly distracting from the black-tie outfit. But the satin bow added a nice, feminine touch and pulled everything together.

Designed by Carolina Herrera, Robert's red gown had off-the-shoulder straps, ruching at the waist, and a deep slit in its skirt.
The gown's color was striking against the event's black carpet, and her neutral makeup kept all focus on the dress.
The outfit is one of her boldest of the year so far.
At Coachella, Roberts showed the power of a little black dress.

Her minidress had long sleeves with squared shoulders and a scooped miniskirt. The piece was simple but cute and looked great with her braided hairstyle.
Roberts also wore short, strappy sandals and carried a $495 Alexander Wang purse.

Wearing Dolce & Gabbana, Roberts graced the red carpet in a semi-sheer gown with a fitted bodice, one shoulder strap, and another hanging off her shoulder.
The dress also had a sheer, pleated skirt, which showed white bottoms beneath it. She accessorized with open-toe heels and golden earrings.
The outfit was elegant and understated.

She attended a Celsius event hosted at the music festival in a two-toned minidress that looked like it came straight from the '60s.
It was mint green on one side, white on the other, and its straight skirt sat just above her knees.
Roberts paired it with white sunglasses and trendy cowboy boots.

On Instagram, Roberts said that Valentino custom-made her edgy gown. It was black, floor-length, and especially bold up top.
Its halter bodice had a plunging neckline down its center, two triangle cutouts at the waist, and a single string across the back. And her skirt was so long that it extended into a small train behind her.
Roberts wore the piece with beach-ready hair and neutral makeup.
Her best outfit of the year was also one of her most casual.

For a Lacoste runway show during Paris Fashion Week, Roberts looked cool and comfortable in wide-leg jeans.
She wore them with a plain white tank top — now a staple in designer lines — running sneakers, and a long white overcoat with puffy sleeves.
To complete the outfit, Roberts carried a black Lacoste handbag crafted from leather.
