I wanted to go over some of my favorite and least favorite looks from this past Sunday’s Emmy awards before all the mags come out and we get sick of seeing the same photos over and over. The best part about fashion is how subjective it is. Some of my favorites may be your least favorites, vice versa. The only thing that isn’t subjective is how hot Matt Damon always looks in a tux. Damn.
Here were some of the looks I loved…
Allison Williams in Ralph Lauren. I’m so beyond obsessed with her and I think she’s flawless to begin with and this look was perfection.
Claire Danes in Armani Prive. While some may hate this dress, I happened to love it. While it could be higher cut, I think it was truly flattering on her body which of course includes a small bust. I thought her hair and makeup complimented it perfectly. And I love the back. Ok, I’m done making my argument to those who put this on their worst dressed list.
Michelle Dockery in a two-tone Prada gown. I think these two shades together are simply stunning and I love the bow in the back with her dark bob. I also loooved her clutch as well as the hem of the gown.
Sofia Vergara in Vera Wang. Sofia looked like a Columbian Jessica Rabbit in this red lace gown that complimented her twins and figure. Big shocker! She knows how how to dress for her body and she does it well. Also, the emerald jewelry is amaze!
Christina Hendricks in Christian Siriano. Christina has two huge assets to work with and I think she worked them the best she ever has before! She looked stunning and her hair and makeup complimented it perfectly. So glamorous!
So black and white was a huge trend on the carpet this year. I loved Cat Deeley’s all black cut out Armani gown (looked better live as opposed to photographed in my opinion) and Kate Mara’s futuristic all white J. Mendel gown was certainly a fun, fresh look, but Elisabeth Moss rocked both black and white best in her Andrew Gn gown, especially with her blonde pixie cut and red lip.
Here were some of the looks I loathed…
Kerry Washington in Marchesa. Ok, don’t freak…I know this look is probably many people’s fav but I just wasn’t digging it. Kerry Washington can usually do no wrong. Hell, she was just named World’s Best Dressed Woman., but this is what she shows up in? There was too much going on and I never thought I’d see her in a dress that didn’t flatter her figure appropriately.
Anna Faris in Monique Lhuillier. Anna is actually on my ‘Worst’ list because of her overall look, not the dress itself. I haaaated her hair and when watching live coverage her makeup looked awful waffle in close ups. Perhaps she needs some better primer and foundation…?
Zosia Mamet in a “custom made” Honor gown. Oddly enough this dress was seen on the runway, thus not actually custom, hmm. Anywho, I don’t love the length and I clearly don’t love the awkward leather mask on her boobs, but I did love the watercolor look. Oh Shosh…
January Jones in Givenchy. This dress just doesn’t do it for me. I hated the cut of the bust and thought it was an overall snooze-fest. But then again I’m not exactly a huge fan of January’s.
Which was the best/worst looks in your opinion?
