Emmy Awards 2012

In anticipation of this year’s Emmy’s, here’s a recap of the best & the worst dressed at last year’s Emmy Awards.

First,  the beautiful Heidi Klum in an Alexander Vaulthier dress. Can you believe it that she is a mother of two? Or more?  The hair, the dress, the high heels, all ooze of elegance! There’s no way she could top this look, ever!

                                     
Next, is Julia  Louis-Dreyfus in a stunning, burgundy Vera Wang gown. The dress is very age appropriate and looks so refined and lady like on her. Such a unique piece!
                                     


 My next favourite is January Jones in a Zac Posen dress. Oh, I simply love the way the dress twists and twirls around her figure. Her whole getup is so simple and yet, it managed to get so much attention. Well, another thing that did catch everyone’s attention was the piece of hair sticking put. Come on, Miss Jones, moose up!


My next favourite girl on the red carpet would be Kat Dennings in a hot red J. Mendel dress. I agree its a little bit slutty but, there are 3 things I like about her in this dress. One is, that she looks so confident, she looks like she owns the red carpet. And the other two, need I mention? ;-)
                                               
Now, this one’s my personal favourite. It’s definitely a very unique Monique Lhuillier dress and what’s more, its orange! I love it that she has paired the perfect pair of Christian Louboutin shoes with this dress. If I had my way, I would have those puppies stocked, in every shade in my closet.  The only thing I don’t like about this whole look is Ginnifer Goodwin. I bet Lucy Hale would have rocked this dress.
                        
                   

The next hot babe on the red carpet was Lucy Liu in a steely look! Her dress was designed by Versace and, I sincerely say that no one else would have carried that dress better than Lucy Liu. I mean, to begin with, it was tailored right, even in the 100 degrees humid weather, she carried it the heavy-heavy dress so elegantly, except once when Zoey Deschanel’s dress got caught in hers, but wait; that’s not the reason why Zoey’s dress was all raggety. We will come back to that later.

Sofia Vergara in a Zuhair Murad dress totally rocked it. I think it was because of her that it was so hot at the Nokia theatre. I mean, when she shook her booty for the cameras; wow! Someone would have thought that the dress would be too tacky for a 40 year old, but no, she proved us all wrong.


Zuhair Murad is one of my favourite designers. Here are few of his pieces you should take a look at. They will make you feel like a princess.



Moving on, we have Tina Fey in burgundy. She’s wearing a dress by Vivienne Westwood.
I always thought of Tina, as a plain Jane from 30 Rock, but she completely wowed us here!

Next, we have Sarah Hyland in Marchesa. She’s young, so she could have chosen a funkier color, although she looks great in this evening gown. Her hair look perfect, and the dress fits her so well. She collaborated with Marchesa to design this dress.


Now, frankly speaking, I did not like what Claire Danes was wearing at the Emmy’s. I am sure that, if she weren’t preggers, she would have been trashed by the critics for wearing this Lanvin frock. But, look at her I mean, this not a color that everyone can pull off! Plus, you can’t even make out that she is pregnant.
 
Padmalaxmi did a great job covering herself up in 45 yards of silk. I mean, I know she is from India, so gotta do due diligence and plus she can buy all the silk in the world with her alimony money, but she could have done better. She could have worn something fresher or a cooler colr. Anyways, she deserves a mention as she totally worked this look on the red carpet.

That sums up the best dressed list. Now, here come the worst dressed.

Up, first is Christina Hendricks in a Christian Siriano . At first, I didn’t recognize her. I thought to myself, oh my god, how did one of Hugh Hefner’s Playboy bunnies make it to the red carpet. And then it struck me, who it was. I mean come on Christina, you are the star of a leading show, you can get enough material to cover yourself up!
 
We all know, you have been greatly endowed, but the red carpet is not the best place to show those off! A lot of critics loved her dress, but all I thought was how trashy that dress is.

Next is the Rageddy Ann doll umm.. pardon me, Zoey Deschanel in a Reem Acra dress. I mean either she got into a cat fight right before the Emmy’s or she’s trying to land a part in the next Raggedy Ann movie.  And what’s with all that mascara/goop.


Emily Vancamp in a J. Mendel dress. She’s so pretty, and young. Why, why would you wear a dress like that, which does nothing to accentuate your figure? Please go ahead, and join the raggetty old maid’s club with Zoey.
 
Does anyone need gunny bags? Anybody? At all? Well, if you do, you might wanna ask Portia De Rossi for some. Apparently she has so many of them stocked in her garage, that she thought she would make a red carpet dress out of those.

Next is the gorgeous Nicole Kidman in an Antonio Berardi gown. Now, why would she wear a flashy, teenagesque dress? As if  her plastic surgeries don’t make her feel young enough?
 

Next is Christina Baranski in a “I don’t care if you call me a hooker” dress. This dress is so not age appropriate. Its too short, too flashy for a 60 year old. 

Last but not the least -I don’t know know who these women are, nor do I intend to, because they do seem to have an atrocious dressing sense. But they were definitely noticeable enough to make it to my worst dressed list.

 
Will write to you after the Emmy’s this year...
