LOS ANGELES, CA--(Marketwire - September 21, 2009) - From the red carpet to the awards podium,
Shohreh Aghdashloo dressed in a striking iridescent blue Lorena Sarbu
(www.lorenasarbu.com) couture was a vision of beauty and grace amongst her
peers during the 61st Annual Primetime Emmy awards. The ethereal and light
Lorena Sarbu gown embodied glamorous perfection, employing Italian silk
chiffon melded with an exquisitely pleated bustier. Delicate expanding
straps kissed Aghdashloo's shoulders as the gown's rear criss-cross straps
acted as elegant, enticing framework for her back. On Sunday, September 20,
2009, Aghdashloo captured her first Emmy win as designer Lorena Sarbu
continues to make her design presence felt at Hollywood's biggest
television awards ceremonies.
Shohreh Aghdashloo's win comes in the category of Outstanding Supporting
Actress in a Miniseries or Movie for her powerful performance in HBO's
"House Of Saddam." This was Aghdashloo's first Emmy nomination. But the
Iranian born beauty is not a newcomer to the awards arena. In 2003,
Aghdashloo skyrocketed to fame with her portrayal of Nadereh Behrani in
"House of Sand and Fog" opposite Ben Kingsley and Jennifer Connelly. Her
performance earned her an Oscar nomination and top honors, such as the
Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Female, Los Angeles Film
Critics Association award for Best Supporting Actress and the New York Film
Critics Circle Award for Best Supporting Actress. Aghdashloo's other
diverse credits include, "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants 2," "X-Men:
The Last Stand" and FOX's "24."
Aghdashloo's triumph places Lorena Sarbu's designs in Emmy's winner circle
for a second time this year. During the 36th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards
held earlier this month, Tamara Braun walked Emmy's victory steps in a
stunning Lorena Sarbu pewter chiffon and silk mermaid gown.
Passionate about marrying design creation with the talent's own unique
personal aura and allure, Lorena Sarbu's custom creations are alive in so
many ways, which set her apart from the rest of the couture set. The Emmys
has witnessed the wondrous enchantment of Lorena Sarbu... Oscar is next!
