Jimmy Kimmel, 44, was the host of the 64th Primetime Emmy Awards so he's got an excuse (sort of). Thank you to 30 Rock's Tracy Morgan, 43, for the shimmer in his tux jacket (which looked dapper on the red carpet if a little rumpled for their "bit" here).
Jon Cryer, 47, bless his patient little soul — he's winning(!) in the Emmy department and the sartorial department — the actor changed it up a bit, wearing a grey tux coat with interest at the lapel (and a groovy tie!), while another winner, for Breaking Bad, Giancarlo Esposito, 54, had subtle stripes and a sexy pocket square to up his tuxedo style.
