## Aaron Paul

The bow tie is kicky!

## Alex Breckenridge

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Alex-Breckenridge.jpg)

Behold the sleeve!

## Allison Williams

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Allison-Williams.jpg)

I think this is gorgeous. Someone in the comments noted it seemed a bit Fall/Winter, which I can also see.

## Amanda Peet

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Amanda-Peet.jpg)

SNORE.

## Amy Poehler

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Amy-Poehler.jpg)

I think she looks fantastic in this.

## Anna Chlumsky

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Anna-Chlumsky.jpg)

I will always love her for telling me and Heather what was happening in the various football games she was keeping an eye on in the limo.

## Archie Panjabi

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Archie-Panjabi.jpg)

Also dishy.

## Ariel Winter

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Ariel-Winter.jpg)

I am coming around on these kinds of hems. This is very lovely on her.

## Ashlee Simpson

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Ashlee-Simpson.jpg)

I seriously forgot she was alive.

## Ashley Judd

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Ashley-Judd.jpg)

Bear in mind that she spent the entire red carpet with a handler holding an umbrella over her head, as well.

## Ben Feldman

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Ben-Feldman.jpg)

He's as cute in person as you'd want. Who'd have thought someone from Drop Dead Diva would end up on Mad Men?

## Cat Deeley

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Cat-Deeley.jpg)

I like this color. It might be a wee busy, structurally.

## Chandler Bing

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Chandler-Bing.jpg)

Could he be ANY TANNER?

## Chloe Sevigny

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Chloe-Sevigny.jpg)

I know she wasn't on the red carpet, but it's hard to resist Chloe and her half-shaved head.

## Christina Hendricks

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Christina-Hendricks.jpg)

Because we haven't talked about THIS enough.

## Christine Baranski

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Christine-Baranski.jpg)

SPARKLE, CHRISTINE! SPARKLE!

## Claire Danes

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Claire-Danes.jpg)

This dress is BULLSHIT!!! Not really. I just wanted to see what it would be like if Claire's Homeland character worked for GFY. We'd be SO MUCH MORE CAPSY.

## Connie Britton

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Connie-Britton.jpg)

Hey, y'all! This could be better, right?

## Damian Lewis

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Damian-Lewis.jpg)

"Hello, Emmy. I'm handsome. Um, I mean, I'm Damian."

## Edie Falco

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Edie-Falco.jpg)

Been there, done that.

## Elisabeth Moss

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Elisabeth-Moss.jpg)

This would be lovely as a duvet cover.

## Emilia Clarke

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Emilia-Clarke.jpg)

I know a lot of people liked this, but I just can't.

## Emily Van Camp

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Emily-Van-Camp.jpg)

SNORE.

## Georgia King

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Georgia-King.jpg)

Not terrible, but her Fake Hair Wrangler needs to go Real Human and not Polyester.

## Ginnifer Goodwin

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Ginnifer-Goodwin.jpg)

I still like this, even after all these days. Insert usual blah blah about her facial expression here.

## Glenn Close

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Glenn-Close.jpg)

Don't worry, Glenn. Everything else about you is awesome.

## Gretchen Mol

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Gretchen-Mol.jpg)

I also enjoy that there's something about this photo that makes it look like she just woke up from a nap. A GLAMOROUS NAP.

## Hanks And the Mustache

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Hanks-And-the-Mustache.jpg)

The mustache is for a movie he's currently making about Walt Disney. It does NOT make his face the happiest place on earth.

## Hannah Simone

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Hannah-Simone.jpg)

What would Schmidt say, CeCe? It would probably be a weird metaphor about cheese, but it might not be positive.

## Harry Shum Jr

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Harry-Shum-Jr.jpg)

He's adorable.

## Hayden Panettiere

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Hayden-Panettiere.jpg)

Sometimes I think Marchesa is personally out to get me.

## Heidi Klum

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Heidi-Klum.jpg)

WHAT A SURPRISING LOOK.

## Hello Lover

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Hello-Lover.jpg)

BEHOLD.

## He's a Rabid Anti-Dentite!

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Hes-a-Rapid-AntiDentite.jpg)

Can you give me a schtickle of fluoride?

## It's Zooey!

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Its-Zooey.jpg)

This has kind of grown on me, like a fungus. A fashion fungus.

## Jane Levy

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jane-Levy.jpg)

I don't watch Suburgatory and thus Jane Levy could run me over with her car and I wouldn't be able to ID her. That said, this is pretty.

## Jane Krakowski

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jane-Krakowski.jpg)

More shiny, more sparkle. Am I OVER SPARKLE? Maybe I am coming down with something.

## Janina Gavankar

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Janina-Gavankar.jpg)

Oh, hell no.

## January Jones

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/January-Jones.jpg)

"Meet us under the waning moon at the base of Ancient Gourd Mountain. Bring a lock of his hair."

## Jena Malone

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jena-Malone.jpg)

EVERYONE: stop sticking your leg out of the slit in your dress FOR THE LOVE OF GOD.

## Jennifer Westfeldt

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jennifer-Westfeldt.jpg)

Westfeldt also looks pretty good, I gotta say. That color is great.

## Jeremy Davies

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jeremy-Davies.jpg)

I get that the hair is for Justified but HOW DOES THAT EXCUSE THE VEST? I still love you, Jeremy Davies. I'm just...saying.

## Jessica Lange

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jessica-Lange.jpg)

She is awesome.

## Jessica Pare

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jessica-Pare.jpg)

This look is gorgeous, I think.

## Joanne Froggatt

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Joanne-Froggatt.jpg)

Anna is holding up pretty well considering everything that's happening with MISTAH BAAAATES (don't spoil me!).

## Johnny Galecki

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Johnny-Galecki.jpg)

Remember when he was on Roseanne? He'll always be Darlene's lobster to me.

## Julia Louis-Dreyfus

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Julia-Louis-Dreyfus.jpg)

GET OUT.

## Jon Cryer

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Jon-Cryer.jpg)

I like to think that he attached a clip of the scene in *Pretty In Pink* where he lip-syncs to Otis Redding to his Emmy reel, and just stuck a note on it that said, "all this, and I lived through Sheen."

## Julianna Margulies

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Julianna-Margulies.jpg)

I liked this and you can't stop me!!!

## Julianne Hough

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Julianne-Hough.jpg)

I do think the color on this is fantastic.

## Julianne Moore

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Julianne-Moore.jpg)

Ditto about the color.

## Julie Bowen

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Julie-Bowen.jpg)

Ditto ditto about the color. Actually, I kind of think this was a success, period.

## Kaley Cuoco

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kaley-Cuoco.jpg)

...this was NOT.

## Kat Dennings

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kat-Dennings.jpg)

MORE COLOR. THANK YOU JESUS. If we got another red carpet chockablock with nudes, I was going to go on a violent, destructive spree.

## Kate Mara

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kate-Mara.jpg)

There is something about this that feels off for the occasion, but for the life of me, I can't figure out why. Maybe I just feel like she ought to be home fretting about the NFL refs strike, given her family background.

## Kelly Osbourne

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kelly-Osbourne.jpg)

If you think I get rage-y about matching your shoes to your dress, you can imagine how I feel about matching your hair.

## Kerry Washington

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kerry-Washington.jpg)

SNOOZE.

## Kevin Costner and the price tag on his Emmy

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Kevin-Costner-and-the-price-tag-on-his-Emmy.jpg)

On Sunday, I looked up and Kevin Costner was standing right in front of Heather. "What should I ask him?" she asked. "Ask him if everything he does, he does for you," I said.

Not really. I actually said, "um, something about Bryan Adams." I KNEW THAT JOKE WOULD COME. I mean, obviously, the actual Bryan Adams joke is, "ask him if he's ever really really really really really really really really ever seriously really ever ever loved a woman," but Costner isn't IN that movie. Comedy is hard.

## KRISTEN WIIG

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/KRISTEN-WIIG.jpg)

I can't believe they didn't send the Color memo to Wiig. SHE NEEDS IT THE MOST.

## Lena Dunham

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Lena-Dunham.jpg)

I know this wasn't that popular, but guess what? I STILL kind of like this.

## Lena Headey

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Lena-Headey.jpg)

Ooh, Lena, you dropped your Eye of Newt.

## Leslie Mann

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Leslie-Mann.jpg)

This is very possibly my best dressed.

## Lily Rabe

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Lily-Rabe.jpg)

Not boring, at least?

## Lucy Liu

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Lucy-Liu.jpg)

I really like this EXCEPT it's like basically sheer, which is a bridge too far for me.

## Martha Plimpton

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Martha-Plimpton.jpg)

I feel like this dress, and Lily Rabe's dress, are distantly related.

## Mayim Bialik

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Mayim-Bialik.jpg)

The color on this is great. I'm not a giant fan of her, personally, but I think this is possibly the best I've seen her look at an awards show.

## Melissa McCarthy

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Melissa-McCarthy.jpg)

A little dour for such a funny lady.

## Michelle Dockery

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Michelle-Dockery.jpg)

Lady Mary, I miss you.

## Mindy Kaling

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Mindy-Kaling.jpg)

This color is divine.

## Morena Baccarin

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Morena-Baccarin.jpg)

Illusion netting never worked so hard.

## Nicole Kidman

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Nicole-Kidman.jpg)

I also liked this, but it can not be said enough: she HAS to stop screwing with her face. She HAS to. She seemed really nice when we saw her at the Emmys, and we all know she is talented. As an actress, she NEEDS HER FACE. NICOLE YOUR FACE DOES NOT MOVE. Please, please, PLEASE PLEASE leave it alone going forward.

## Padma Lakshmi

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Padma-Lakshmi.jpg)

Suddenly, I have the most powerful craving for an Orange Julius.

## Portia de Rossi

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Portia-de-Rossi.jpg)

I had blocked this out until just now. AND IT IS TERRIBLE. WHY is this SO TERRIBLE?

## Rico Roderiguez

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Rico-Roderiguez.jpg)

I sincerely love this kid.

## Sarah Paulson

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Sarah-Paulson.jpg)

This is also one of my faves of the night, I think. In part because it's such a change for her.

## Schmidt

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Schmidt.jpg)

I'm glad Max Greenfield went for the classic tux. I worry Schmidt might have gone overboard.

## Sofia Vergara

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Sofia-Vergara.jpg)

SHE is gorgeous. This might have been a little much?

## The Foxes

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/The-Foxes.jpg)

I just love him, is all.

## Thomas Jane

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Thomas-Jane.jpg)

NATURALLY.

## Tina Fey

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Tina-Fey.jpg)

I also forgot about this, but in this case, what I forgot is how great she looked.

## Z Quinto

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Z-Quinto.jpg)

I appreciate Zachary Quinto's devotion to unusual yet flattering formalwear.

## Zosia Mamet

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2012/09/Zosia-Mamet.jpg)

This is just sad.
