Reminder: What Kim Kardashian Wore to the Emmys in 2009
T minus three days until the Emmys, but don't worry: That leaves plenty of time to binge-watch all the best nominated shows before finding out who takes home the statues. While we wait to see what Issa Rae, Millie Bobby Brown, and the rest of the nominees wear to the show, we figured we'd take a walk down memory lane to revisit what a certain reality star wore to the event almost 10 years ago.
In 2009, Kim Kardashian attended the Emmys in a white one-shoulder Ina Soltani gown, along with oversize hoop earrings and a matching white Swarovski clutch. Sister Kourtney also attended that year, wearing a strapless BCBG dress while pregnant with her first child, Mason. Kim also returned to the Emmys the following year, 2010, in another white gown, this time by Marchesa, with mom Kris Jenner in tow. Scroll down to see the throwback red carpet looks.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
