Nasim Pedrad

This is very glam! It has a real Marilyn Monroe in Gentleman Prefer Blondes vibe.

Tamron Hall

I don't love this, but I DO love how over the top it is, if that makes sense? (I also LOVE Tamron and her talk show is getting very good ratings, so I am happy for her.)

Iskra Lawrence

Sure! This is reasonable. She also just announced that she's 18 weeks pregnant, so congrats to her; that's very exciting. We do love BABIES!!! around these parts.

Willow Shields in Bibhu Mohapatra

This is a DRAMATIC load of dress when you are not (to my knowledge) involved with the proceedings in any way. It's BIG and wacky and actually works surprisingly well on her. (This one caption is Heather, by the way. I found this photo after Jessica went to bed. I don't want her to feel misrepresented in case she wakes up tomorrow and is like OH LOOK, IT'S HELL IN DRESS FORM, AND NOW PEOPLE THINK I LIKED IT.)

Anne V in Etro

Ah, tis the season for models to wear dresses that look like incredibly expensive holiday slipcovers. Believe it or not, however, in this case that is a compliment.

Niecy Nash in Redemption

Also VERY glam and festive. (She introduced honoree Ava DuVernay.)

Annie Murphy

She looks very cool -- and, yes, also festive -- in this. I guess I'm fine with jumpsuits now. It literally only took 15 years.

Elaine Welteroth

I love the IDEA of Elaine swanning about in a fabulous vintage dressing gown; this one feels a little big on her? If you didn't watch the last season of Project Runway, though, she's one of the judges and she's SO SMART AND GOOD on it.

Danai Gurira in Tory Burch

Tory was an honoree -- Danai introduced her, in fact -- and she did dress some people. This is a little...foofy, perhaps, for me, but the color is fab.

Nyakim Gatwech

I've never said this before, but I wish the slit on this dress was HIGHER.

Jameela Jamil in Balmain

I DO think I can envision a plotline on The Good Place where everyone is zapped back to the 80s, and Tahani wears this and carries around a HUGE phone.

Mj Rodriguez in Cong Tri

I mayhap would have done a red lip?

Aja Naomi King in Marc Jacobs

Just as an FYI: this fits her JUST as it fit the runway model. It IS pleasantly floaty.

Halima Aden in Tory Burch

She is my favorite model, and this feels a little bit like she just ran over from another, more casual event, that ran SUPER long.

Zosia Mamet

She looks SO cute here, but also like she's wearing something designed for someone eight inches taller.

Olivia Cooke in Markarian

Sure!

Stassi Schroeder

This would have been more elegant if it hadn't been cut to her navel, perhaps, but way to go Stassi, for getting invited to this!

Brooke Shields

In case you forgot Brooke Shields was in Chicago!

Cara Buono

"I regret going full ballgown now that I've seen Brooke's kicky mini-dress."

Jane Fonda

She looks GREAT in this.

Samira Wiley

This is very chic! (She introduced Margaret Atwood.)

Britney Young

Here's your semi-regular reminder to watch GLOW! (I just binged the latest season and Geena Davis is in it!)

Ella Hunt in Oscar de la Renta

Ah, yes, from OdlR's traditional "would also make a glorious backsplash" collection.

Sophia Lillis in Batsheva

This is too much for me. It looks like a costume Jane Curtin would have worn in a Formal Coneheads skit on SNL -- a reference that is almost too old even for me, if you can believe such a thing exists.

Karolina Kurkova

Karolina is OBSESSED WITH SHIRT TAILS right now!!!

Busy Philipps in Misha Nonoo

Ding dong! How dishy is THIS?! What a strong ending to this slideshow! (She was the host of the show, too, so an excellent night all around for Busy.)

Here's the Rest of the Glamour WOTY Red Carpet!

It REALLY ran the gamut.
