Leave it to Emily Deschanel to look absolutely stunning on the red carpet and make a statement about cruelty-free fashion at the same time.

At this year's Emmys, the star put on a custom Houghton one-sleeved gown designed by Katharine Polk. She paired it with Aldo shoes, and a clutch, InStyle tells us.

Apart from the fact that it looked divine, Emily Deschanel's outfit managed to steal the spotlight due to the fact that it was completely vegan.

This means that, unlike other dresses and shoes that celebs posed in on the red carpet, Emily Deschanel's gown, clutch and shoes weren't made with any animal parts or animal products.

Otherwise put, they were entirely cruelty-free.

As animal rights activists have already pointed out, Emily Deschanel is living proof that one doesn't have to harm any innocent creatures to look absolutely fabulous, and that animal-friendly outfits aren't just possible, but also quite gorgeous.
