## Penelope Cruz, Salma Hayek

Yes, that dress is not innovative, per se, but it's one of the best ones Penelope has ever worn. It's perfect on her. I don't love the tiny hip horns on Salma -- why is EVERYONE looking to put hardcore geometry there these days? -- but she still looks amazing.

## Sarah Paulson in Marc Jacobs

So I like this in theory, but does it not look like she put her arms through it and they forgot to zip up the back? Also her shoes have fangs, and it's alarming. I'd be afraid I would bite myself if I tripped on them. ([Kylie Jenner wore pink ones in Elle recently](https://www.gofugyourself.com/photos/elle-kylie-jenner/elm110124wlkylie%5F002-logo-1729706950?ref=go-fug-yourself.ghost.io); they're also by Marc.)

## Aubrey Plaza

This is refreshingly relaxed [after that Miu Miu mess](https://go-fug-yourself.ghost.io/aubrey-plaza-went-unusually-sheer-at-the-academy-gala-10-2024/). It's like my grandmother always said: Sometimes you can look like a million bucks without weird satin potholders stuck to your hips.

## A'ja Wilson

See? HIP SHOULDERS. That's three in the past seven days! She also has a hip smile and a boob grin to match.

Just for perspective on how tall WNBA stars are.

## Reese Witherspoon

Sure! I think I'd have put up the hair, though.

## Charli XCX

From the front this looks how you would imagine, so I figured you should at least see that the back is not so severe. However...

## Paloma Elsesser

THIS ALSO looks as you would imagine from the front, but the back is actually maybe sort of trying to innovate, per the night's theme. This will get all squinched up when she has to sit down, unless she refuses to lean backward I suppose, but it looks structurally funky here at least.

## Bowen Yang, Kenan Thompson and Heidi Gardner

I guess adding a stretchy turtleneck is one way to make a strapless gown work year-round? But it's kind of stealing the dress's thunder by making it... disappear. Bowen's shirt seems saucy, though, and I like Kenan's whole situation.

## Bethann Hardison

The legend! Now THAT is a kicky shirt.

## Linda Evangelista

Spoiler: We are also going to see overlong sleeves in the next post of the day, on Eva Longoria, and I am very tired of it. But as a person Linda looks radiant.

## Emily Ratajkowski in JW Anderson

This is fine I guess, but I'm bored. Her aura is boring to me. (The text is from an art book. I love books! I do not love this.)

## Lila Moss

Not sure what Lila is doing there. Maybe she gets all of Kate's invitations that she doesn't want.

## Sofia Coppola

This is par for the course. Her taste in shirts is usually underwhelming.

## Ellie the Elephant

HOWEVER, here is the STAR of the evening, the mascot for the WNBA champion New York Liberty in a custom Dona Matoshi gown. The fit is VERY precise, but her crown seems to be slipping. Someone pin that thing in place!
