Julia Louis-Dreyfus in red Carolina Herrera at the Emmys: incredible and flattering?
This post is dedicated to some of the female winners last night. As Julianna Margulies mentioned during her speech, it’s a wonderful time for women on television.
First off we have Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who took home the Emmy for Lead Actress in a Comedy, for Veep for the second year in a row. (It was her fifth Emmy overall.) She’s in an amazing Carolina Herrera halter neck full length gown. She told Giuliana Rancic that the color was raspberry and she said the patent belt was burgundy. This was one of my favorite red dresses last night. Of course Julia also won the night with that bit with Bryan Cranston. She played it like she had no idea who he was until they locked tongues. She’s such an excellent comedic actress! Here’s Louis-Dreyfus’ acceptance speech.
Julianna Margulies worked the hell out of a formfitting black and grey Narciso Rodriguez gown. (I feel somewhat guilty for snatching Margulies, as Kaiser love Good Wife.) She looks amazing and I love the detail on this dress. The back is especially stunning. Julianna won for Lead Actress in a Drama, having won once previously for Good Wife in 2011. (She also earned a Supporting Actress Emmy for ER in 1995.) Here’s her speech.
Jessica Lange took home the Emmy for Lead Actress in a Miniseries or Movie, for American Horror Story: Coven. This is her third Emmy, she won Supporting Actress for AHS in 2012 and Lead Actress for Grey Gardens in 2009. Lange seemed pleasantly surprised to have won yet again, you could tell she wasn’t expecting it at all. Lange is in J. Mendel.
I’m throwing Sarah Paulson in at the end because I don’t want to focus on the negative too much. She’s in a ridiculous Armani Privé gown with polka dot tulle puffing out from every angle. Why would anyone even make this dress other than for a costume? Paulson was nominated in the same category as her American Horror Story: Coven co-star, Jessica Lange.
