This is stunning. I want Kristen Wiig to bust out something like this at the Emmys -- a ball gown, a color, regal. Just to see.

Elie Saab feels a lot like Couture for the Timid sometimes, actually. I don't mean that in a bad way. It's just that this stuff is almost Beginner-level wearable compared to all the other shows. And that's fine because everyone has to start somewhere.

Okay, we've got a touch of sorcery here, for the experimental.

Claire Danes will need an Emmy dress... but mostly I am curious if someone will end up lopping off the straps when this gets selected. Not because I don't like them, but something about the angle makes me wonder if they'll be deemed unnecessary.

Who would wear the neck scarf... for some reason I'm feeling Julianna Margulies on that. Or Jessica Pare.

Beautiful, classy, and dreamy.

Beautiful, classy, and dreamy: the nude version.

And in blue. Line that sucker properly and give it to Kaley Cuoco, along with a better hair plan.

It's lovely long, too, albeit still a nip hazard if not executed properly.

This is a no-brainer to get picked out by someone, but I wish the color weren't so dishwater-y.

I mean, Hollywood can't resist flesh tones. But it's so much better with a higher sparkle factor. As evidenced by much of this skirt, the fabric on its own is the most depressing panty-hose shade at the drugstore.

It's just drab when it's not totally tricked out. Yawn.

It's a creative mind who makes a glorified caftan that also flashes nipple.

After a while these all run together a bit. This feels boring at this point, even though parts of it are objectively pretty.

Jessica Chastain loves this sort of thing, right? This is giving me deja vu, though -- in fact, a lot of this show does.

Like this. I feel like I've seen this before.

And this. Also, I would like this entirely better without the lace.

Transparency is a pernicious little sucker.

Do we think Taylor Swift would ever do this? Or has she done it already? I've lost track. She has that knack for doing things that feel stale already even if it's her first time.

Freida Pinto would look great in that.

I kind of want to lop off the sleeve but keep the asymmetry. Still... very simple, very pretty, the type of thing that's tough to screw up.

Did someone ask for a green version? VOILA.

Y'all know I'm thinking of redheads. You just know it. Nicole Kidman in this color would be amazing, right?

That is a beautiful execution of a non-design. I'd love something with a bit more intrigue -- just a bit.

Ditto this. It doesn't have enough dimension for me, so all I can focus on is the satin sheen, and it takes me to Dyed-To-Match Land.

Let's take bets now on whether the person who wears this DOES bother lining it. I'm going to say no.

[Couture Week Fugs and Fabs: Elie SaabThis is like a spa compared to much of the rest. It will not ruin your day, nor give you nightmares; it just sort of helps pass the time without much stress, and maybe gives you something to dream about while you're doing TPS reports. \[Photos: Getty\]![](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/content/files/www-gofugyourself-com/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/172543288_10.xml)](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/couture-week-fugs-and-fabs-elie-saab-2-07-2013/)
