Stars come out for big weekend before television’s biggest night

In less than 48 hours from now, we will be saturated by Emmys 2013 photos, news and discussions so, to prepare for what I hope will be a feast for every fashion- and good TV-loving guy or gal out there, I decided to start off on a very high note.

By that I mean Raquel Welch, of course.

The 73-year-old actress and beauty icon was on hand at a Variety pre-Emmy party, the Variety & Women in Film Pre-Emmy bash in Beverly Hills, and, in typical style, she managed to get everyone talking about her.

Though she wasn’t by far the biggest name on the red carpet, it’s not hard to understand why she’s the center of attention, as the photo above can surely confirm: she might be old, but she remains beautiful, graceful and classy.

In fact, whenever I think of her (Sophia Loren, too), I can’t but think timeless elegance.

The Daily Mail has more photos from the event. She’s breathtaking and super charming.
