I hate the length of these pants but from the ankles up, this is DIVINE. Do you remember when she was on SNL and [they did that great digital short, CHEQUES](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ogktj6erkk&ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io)? Well, cash this one!

## Amy Poehler in Halston

When she showed up on the broadcast, I IM'ed Heather, "DAMN, Poehler looks HOT." I stand by this (hot) take!

## Reese Witherspoon in Armani

This is very Reese Witherspoon of Reese Witherspoon and I'm not mad about it or anything -- she looks good, and it's a great dress! But it's fairly predictable for her.

## Patricia Arquette

This is very well-fitted to her, but I do wish she had a brighter lip. (Also: She is SO good on *Severance*. She has a million Emmys already, but still.)

## Laverne Cox in Jean Paul Gaultier

Laverne made it very clear on the E! broadcast that this IS an homage to Madonna's Cone Bra. It's entertaining, anyway. She's worn worse!! (How's that for a pull-quote?)

## Lily James in Versace

This is, honestly, fairly perfect on her. She LOVES Versace now -- I can see wanting to go a little sexy with your wardrobe after playing so many wholesome roles prior to Pamela Anderson (not that Pammy isn't wholesome, but she's not *Cinderella*\-level wholesome!). Anyway, it's very in her wheelhouse of late, but you can't deny that she's working this and it fits perfectly.

## Amanda Seyfried in Armani

This is also STELLER. It's the dress of a winner -- which, as luck would have it, she was! Like, it's gorgeous.

## Christina Ricci in Fendi

This is also absolutely fantastic on her. I might wish the purse were contrasting and not matchy, but that's not actually a complaint. She looks terrific.

## Mindy Kaling

This is also absolutely terrific. We are in a real winning streak! Spoiler: This entire slideshow is actually fairly great.

## Sarah Niles

Excuse me, Sarah Niles continues her award show streak of showing up looking super glam and causing me to say, "DR SHARON!!!!" with delight.

This is very architectural.

## Colman Domingo in Dolce & Gabbana

D&G is legit back. That being...what it is, I actually think this suit is great but it pains me to inform you that he is wearing a mesh shirt, and that is almost never necessary.

## Britt Lower in Cucculelli Shaheen

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13386129n-1663036854.jpg)

This is objectively slightly weird and a little medieval and yet...very good on her? (I think it helps that she's on a weird show and thus we've all been trained to accept interesting weirdness floating around her.)

## Dichen Lachman

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13385936k-1663036762.jpg)

Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock for PEOPLE (13385936k) Dichen Lachman 74th Primetime Emmy Awards, Arrivals, Fashion Highlights, Microsoft Theater, Los Angeles, USA - 12 Sep 2022

Finally, I have a complaint! She is ALSO great on *Severance*, but this dress -- although objectively cute and kicky! -- is a little casual for the Emmys. This would be PERFECT for the VMAs, though. Like the big splashy classic VMAs of yore.

## Sydney Sweeney in custom Oscar de la Renta

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13385936av-1663036748.jpg)

Mandatory Credit: Photo by David Fisher/Shutterstock for PEOPLE (13385936av) Sydney Sweeney 74th Primetime Emmy Awards, Arrivals, Fashion Highlights, Microsoft Theater, Los Angeles, USA - 12 Sep 2022 Wearing Oscar de la Renta, Custom

Sydney looks a bit tired out and I wonder if this grey is washing her out a little bit? It's a beautiful dress, though. I might have wondered how it would have looked in a slightly brighter blue.

The bustle/train situation is gorgeous, though.

## Quinta Brunson in custom D&G

I am SO glad she won! She made a Jessica Rabbit reference here and I can see that; it feels a little D&G Does Versace. Very glam though, and I actually think it looked better on TV than it does here.

## Jeremy Strong

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13386129dz-1663036803.jpg)

Mandatory Credit: Photo by Richard Shotwell/Invision/AP/Shutterstock (13386129dz) Jeremy Strong arrives at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards - Arrivals, Los Angeles, United States - 12 Sep 2022

I am UNACCUSTOMED to him looking sort of classic -- remember [the time he won an Emmy dressed as a bit player in Les Mis](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/obviously-we-need-to-talk-about-jeremy-strong-09-2020/)? I shall ne'er forget -- and honestly he looks great. The sparkle keeps it from getting too boring.

## Chrissy Teigen in Naeem Khan

I love this AND I wish it were the vintage wallpaper in the powder room of my Palm Springs vacation home that I do not own.

## Christopher Meloni and Mariska Hargitay

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13386210am-1663036937.jpg)

Mandatory Credit: Photo by John Salangsang/Invision/AP/Shutterstock (13386210am) Christopher Meloni, left, and Mariska Hargitay arrive at the 74th Emmy Awards on at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles FIJI Water at the 74th Emmy Awards, Los Angeles, United States - 12 Sep 2022

You can't tell very well in this photo, but Mariska's dress has subtle sparkles all over it. She always just looks deeply competent and well-coiffed, and it is soothing! Chris Meloni is sparkly just in the sense that our eyes cannot help but be drawn to him.

## Jennifer Coolidge in D&G

![](https://static.gofugyourself.com/uploads/2022/09/shutterstock_editorial_13386310ad-1663036952.jpg)

Mandatory Credit: Photo by Mark Terrill/Invision/AP/Shutterstock (13386310ad) Jennifer Coolidge accepts the Emmy for outstanding supporting actress in a limited or anthology series or movie for "The White Lotus" at the 74th Primetime Emmy Awards, at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles 2022 Primetime Emmy Awards - Show, Los Angeles, United States - 12 Sep 2022

I love her, I love that she won, I love that she danced to the music they played as they tried to play her off, and while she looks good, she does also look a bit like a fancy chair in *Beauty and the Beast*.
