Hey, Washington’s most fashionable fixer is also known to wear white — literally and metaphorically — so her cream, peplum Miu Miu gown definitely does the trick.
The Scandal star, who’s presenting Sunday night, also teased the ABC drama’s next episode, which looks like it involves a shooting that sends Liv, still suffering from PTSD after her kidnapping, into a downward spiral.

“The very next episode is an episode that means a great deal to me,” she explained. “It’s a very moving episode.”
“Not to be a downer on the red carpet!” she added, laughing.
