Issa Rae rocks a unique Sergio Hudson dress at the Emmys

Issa Rae

Issa Rae was nominated for his work in Insecure and A Black Lady Sketch Show.

Issa Rae said goodbye to Insecure at his last Emmy for the show, and he did it in style.

The actress walked the carpet at the awards ceremony in a tailor-made Sergio Hudson gown. The black and white look features thin straps and a geometric cut in the front. The dress also features black trimmings spread over the carriage behind it.

“I love him as a designer; he’s phenomenal,” Ray told news, and EW Red Carpet Live hosts Janine Rubenstein and Jeremy Parsons.

Rae styled her hair in a blunt updo with a trendy middle parting, making her beauty look clean and straightforward. Ray, 37, was nominate for Lead Actress in a Comedy Series at this year’s Emmy Awards for her role as Issa in Insecure. The show, which he also created, received nominations for Outstanding Cinematography for Single-Camera Series (Half an Hour) and Outstanding Editing of Single Camera Image for Comedy Series for its latest episode. She was also nominated for A Black Lady Sketch Show.

Since its premiere in October 2016, Insecure has received dozens of award nominations. The show has been nominate for at least one Emmy every year since 2018 and won the Outstanding Single-Camera Photo Editing for Comedy Series in 2020.

Not sure to air its final series in 2021, which Ray describes as a “growth journey.”

“I mean, it’s been a growth journey,” Ray Entertainment Tonight said of his character development. “So if Issa is in the same place as Season 1, then we failed.”

The latest episode is titled Everything’s Gonna Be Alright?!, written by Ray and directed by showrunner Prentiss Penny. During the 40-minute loop, Isa Dee (Ray) contemplates his life’s journey as time passes. Viewers can see where Issa, Molly (Yvonne Orji), Tiffany (Amanda Seals), Kelly (Natasha Rothwell), Lawrence (Jay Ellis), and Nathan (Kendrick Sampson) end up — but longtime fans of the series may not be happy with the outcome.

“It’s not like these characters’ lives are ending,” Penny told the publication. “It’s just that the audience and writers aren’t moving forward. But theoretically, they will go on and live their lives.”

That alone “freed us from worrying about a perfect ending,” Penny added.
