Jennifer Lawrence at the Elle Women In Hollywood Awards

This is pretty on her, though, right? It's a little safe, but it's also not BLINDINGLY HIDEOUS nor unflattering, which... we're still at the point in our relationship with J.Lawr where I think Not Blindingly Hideous is enough.

Amy Poehler in Calvin Klein

Trust me, i very much appreciate the concept of wearing a blanket. But this is not so flattering on Amy. And everything is going to stick to it, and it is going to stick to everything, and it's going to stretch, and at least two people will sneeze because they're standing near her. I don't know. She is just more fab than this.

Tina Fey in Calvin Klein

"Fey? It's Poles. They gave me a sweater-skirt. PLEASE keep it boring and black so that when we hang out it might just all kind of run together. Also, does Liz Lemon have any interest in visiting Pawnee? No? Just throwing it out there. Call me."

Kaley Cuoco in Paule Ka

A Tourniquet Sleeve is never a good idea.

Emmy Rossum in Versace

This edgy Lagerfeldian Western ensemble (even though it's Versace) is weird, but she's pulling it off -- it's like she's doing her very best Kristen Stewart, but with two notches added.

Brie Larsen in Calvin Klein

This is the depressing version. it's hanging so weirdly, and seems very bored with itself.

Teyonah Parris in Stella McCarteny (blazer only)

... I mean, if the dress code was "Jacket Required," then I guess she got in on that technicality.

Liberty Ross in Versace

The boob tape application is exactly as elegant as the outfit. By which I mean, at subterranean levels.

Ari Graynor at the Elle Women In Hollywood Awards

She looks like Debbie Gibson going through a SWINTON phase.

Ashley Madekwe in Calvin Klein

Is that a necklace, or part of the dress? I think it's a necklace. Full marks for making the most basic of LBDs look interesting.

Michelle Monaghan in Altuzarra

That dress is bland enough that it screamed out for SOMETHING to make it pop. The shoes aren't it. I like them, but it's like they belonged to the outfit that DIDN'T arrive in time for the party.

Molly Sims

Lovely, and full of bracelets.

Jessica Lange in Calvin Klein

Not her best, not her worst, and she still gets to be Jessica Lange so that's a win in anyone's book.

Renee Zellweger at the Elle Women In Hollywood Awards

And, to Renee. Let's start with the good news: She is dating a resplendently coiffed musician who is seemingly very into her.

And the back of her dress is really pretty...

Renee Zellweger at the Elle Women In Hollywood Awards

But for a second here I genuinely thought that might be a blonde Juliette Lewis. WHAT IS HAPPENING. I know we've mentioned this before, but... seriously, whatever it is, it continues to blow my. mind.

Renee Zellweger in Carolina Herrera

And from this distance, she's more like Kelly Lynch. When you are Oscar Winner Renee Zellweger, you need to LOOK LIKE Oscar Winner Renee Zellweger, because while Star of Curly Sue and Cocktail Kelly Lynch is probably very nice and talented, it's not the same.

Fugs and Fabs of the Elle Women in Hollywood Awards: Part One

This dress on Jennifer is Oscar de la Renta, and given that she does usually have to sail on the S.S. Dior, I choose to believe it was a last-second tribute. Sniffle. There were pictures of her smiling, and she seemed very cheery at the event, but this was the best view -- at least at the time of this writing -- of her whole outfit. And so I envision her standing there, posing, dreading the inevitable raised eyebrows and questions about her new relationship. "I thought you'd be wearing yellow," someone might say. Or, "What time is it? Has anyone checked the clocks?" Or, "Holy crap you're dating Chris Martin what is THAT like does he burn macrobiotic cookbooks every night and post anti-health food comments on websites all day TELL ME EVERYTHING." And, at the end, a special episode of We Need To Talk About Renee. [Photos: Splash, Getty]
