Jaimie Alexander made a bit of a Twitter splash last night at the Emmys. People were a little surprised because she generally likes to draw attention to herself by showing a lot of skin. In contrast, this Armani Prive dress covered everything up. There’s an ready explanation in the form of her Blindspot tattoos. Jaimie told Giuliana that she couldn’t remove all of the residual dye, and she even had some visible ink on her neck. This show had better work out for all this makeup trouble, right? Jaimie looked really pretty in this reflective, multicolored dress. The stripes remind me of those colored rocks you find in caves. Her hair is all slicked back for “the wet look,” but it works because this ensemble would otherwise overpower.
Emma Roberts wore a pale, Grecian-inspired Jenny Packham dress that wasn’t my favorite. Since her hair is blonde now, and her skin is so pale, she needed a darker color to prevent looking washed out. Otherwise, her styling with a simple necklace strand and a bold clutch, was good, and her makeup was very pretty. Emma has a beautiful smile, even if she often plays terrifying characters these days.
Aubrey Plaza went basic but not at all boring with this Alexandre Vauthier dress. The deep v-neck and the high-thigh split make this dress more interesting than it would otherwise be. The glittery red sequins dress up the jersey-style fabric. Her hair is a little too perfect, and I think it would have been a fun contrast to add some volume.
Jane Krakowski looked uncomfortable in a pink and black Bibhu Mohapatra gown with a slight fishtail. I didn’t like this dress at all but get what she was going for — old Hollywood glamour. It just didn’t execute so well, and she’s pose harding like crazy.
Kathryn Hahn wore a Vivienne Westwood dress that was too casual, which is heartbreaking. This dress would have been funky enough for a red carpet premiere, but it looks a little too chaotic for the Emmys. A sleek updo may have helped balance the wildness.
