Last night's Emmys saw Jon Hamm finally get his, GoT take the grand prize and Viola Davis nabbing a historic win as the first African American actress to take home an Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series for her role in How to Get Away With Murder. But just as exciting as what was going on during the ceremony was the fashion on the red carpet. We break down the best worst and weirdest looks below.


January Jones

"Am I nuts for liking this? The color looks beautiful on January's fair skin and despite the weird pleated fabric in the front, which looks like kelp, I like that she mixed it up. Fun n' funky."-- Abby

"BEST LOOK OF THE NIGHT. January went full "who meee?"-bitch mode on everyone at the Emmys. She has been trolling us all for the past near-decade with her fug red carpet looks, and here we get her final, tea-sipping bow, complete with a LEG RUFFLE AND A BROOCH. You mad, bro?"--Elizabeth


Kerry Washington

"This is one of those dresses where my head is saying "no" but my heart is saying "yes." I tend to hate tea length anything and the metallic flowers on the shoulders should be a big "no fly zone" but for some reason the whole thing works. And considering that recent awards shows are just one big parade of strapless mermaid gowns, I really like that Kerry, who's known for bold fashion, went in a different direction. I also like that the sequins and the weaving make it almost look like she's wearing high-fashion armor. Very Olivia Pope."-- Abby

"So agreed, Abby. Everything on this dress is a 'hm, no' checklist, yet it could not be more stunningly lovely. She looks like a gorgeous perfect angel princess from planet 'That's Right.'" -- -- Elizabeth


Christina Hendricks

"I'm not crazy about the parted bangs but Christina looks amazing in that gown. She looks like a mythological goddess from the future."-- Abby

"Sex ft. Sex (Extended Sex Remix)."-- Elizabeth


Laura Prepon

"Laura looks beautiful in this dramatic red dress and I even like the ornate neckline. Xenu would be proud."-- Abby

"Mad respect for that "living mannequin" hip throw. One of the best posers of the night."-- Elizabeth


Viola Davis

"Epitome of sophistication. Her Carmen Marc Valvo gown is so American-chic and the white looks gorgeous against her skin."-- Abby

"Classic and gorgeous. The perfect dress to wear while you deliver possibly the most-needed and just stunning, electric Emmys acceptance speech of all time."-- Elizabeth


Claire Danes

"This Prada dress reminds me of a purse but I also kind of am into it because it's different than what you usually see at these awards shows. But it looks like it'd be really heavy to wear, no?"-- Abby

"I like that she mixed it up too. Dude, what is that dress? That dress is a flag, a sail or a purse. If I had to describe the overall feel of this dress, I'd go with something like, "I think so!"-- Elizabeth


Elisabeth Moss

"Elisabeth Moss went from Peggy Olsen to Barbie. But I like the retro feel of this hot pink Oscar de la Renta gown. She could've doubled down on the fanciness and worn a necklace but that's fine."-- Abby

"I feel like only work out clothes should be that color. It's just... a lot. That said, Elisabeth and her blonde hair are super beautiful, old-Hollywood and I'm feeling her vibe. -- Elizabeth


Taraji P. Henson

"I'll let the keyhole cut-out slide on this one because Taraji looks amazing. She's the most glamorous fashion vampire on the whole damn carpet and I love the Elvira-y lace."-- Abby

"Agreed about the cut-out Abby, but damn, this is some next-level burning-fire hotness. This is what everyone should wear all of the time. I feel that people should either be dressed as the chicest sexiest witch they can evoke without compromising their personal brand, wearing a turtleneck, or wearing a jumpsuit. If everyone would just adhere to this, we'd all be happier. One love; three essential looks; no bad vibes. "-- Elizabeth


Sofia Vergara

"I guess I need to just stop resisting the strapless fit and flare look on Sofia and start embracing it. She looks great and that's all that really matters."-- Abby

"She wants what she wants. Where is Joe?"-- Elizabeth


Maggie Gyllenhaal

"I like the color of the skirt actually but I think that the corset seems to be a little too big and the material is kind of overwhelming."-- Abby

"Agreed, the skirt is too big and she's swallowed by the dress. I like her hair, though, and I like that she almost always looks like a cat."-- Elizabeth


Lady Gaga

"Gaga in "normal person" drag! She looks terrific despite the weird extra fabric on her hip and the Fox News anchor helmet hair."-- Abby

"Ooh, you are so right re: the Megyn Kelly hair. That said, I thought Gaga looked great. G(re)a(t)ga." --- Elizabeth


Emma Roberts

"Beautiful. Neutral. Safe. Fine."-- Abby

"Yeah, nice and fine."-- Elizabeth


Kiernan Shipka

"Kiernan's Dior couture is cool and the embroidery is stunning but the pants and the cut of the top feel oddly casual and also as if she's wearing a ballet or ice skating costume. I do like the pants-under-dress look (see: Emma Watson, also in Dior, at the Golden Globes in 2014) but I'm not convinced it works here."-- Abby

"Cute and fun."-- Elizabeth


Joanna Newsome

"This was by far the most, uh, interesting dress of the night, one that resembles some kind of early '60s-era chair in a ladies' powder room, but honestly it's pretty amazing. The Delpozo gown took a major risk and it's Joanna's silent nod to the fact that she's probably cooler than 90% of the people at this damn thing. You do you, Joanna."-- Abby

"The only thing better would have been if January Jones had summersaulted out of the little curtain under this dress and these two could have put that red carpet on the full tag-teamed fug blast it deserved. I loved this. "-- Elizabeth


Laverne Cox

"Laverne looks bangin' -- pure Americana sport excellence."-- Abby

"Loving it and loving it and loving it."-- Elizabeth


Laura Carmichael

"Not my favorite look of the night -- the dress kind of has a weird late-90s moment going on with the neckline and wispy tie-straps but then a hippie floral skirt happening. It's just chronologically and culturally confused. It happens."-- Abby

"I like her hair."-- Elizabeth


Jessica Lange

"With those shades and that frosty stare, is Jessica becoming the female Jack Nicholson of the carpet? Whatever the case, she look great and I liked the off-the-shoulder look on her."-- Abby

"Bow to the omega bitch of the red carpet."-- Elizabeth


Uzo Aduba

"The halter neck is not often a flattering look but the gorgeous color palette and elegant hair and makeup make up for it."-- Abby

"I cried the entire time Uzo Aduba spoke during her acceptance speech, especially when she gave her sister a shout out. I just love her. She seems like the best."-- Elizabeth


Ellie Kemper

"Ellie's Naeem Khan was another one of my favorite dresses of the night. It was striking but simple and the colors are stunning. She's like spin art come to life."-- Abby

"Ooh, I like this too. She looks like sherbert deco goddess."-- Elizabeth


Tracee Ellis Ross

"I like this peachy color but the skirt is just not my thing. It reminds me of a saloon girl and, uh, is that an Apple watch? Just gonna leave that there..."-- Abby

"I like her hair."-- Elizabeth


Lena Headey

"I would've liked Lena's hair to be a little bit different and for the dress to have a tad less material but the sequins or beading or whatever it is is fantastic."-- Abby

"I liked this but it seemed too big for her and not in a fun, 'that's the point of the dress, stupid'-way. Also, ultimate props for straight-up eating McDonald's backstage. -- Elizabeth
