Kirsten Dunst in Givenchy at the Emmys: underappreciated & lovely?

It makes me sad that Kirsten Dunst didn’t get more attention at the Emmys. Of course, it also makes me sad that Fargo Season 2 didn’t get any attention at the Emmys, because Fargo continues to be one of the best shows on TV. Perhaps Kirsten was always going to lose, or perhaps it was just Sarah Paulson’s year, but I did feel sorry for Kiki. She was great in Fargo and it would have been nice to see her work rewarded. Kirsten wore this figure-hugging Givenchy gown which looks amazing on her. When she came onto the red carpet, people were like “is she pregnant???” I don’t think so? I think she’s just gained a little weight and it looks great on her, plus she’s always had awful posture. I loved her whole look though.

Robin Wright was nominated for House of Cards and some theorized that she believed she was going to win. She did not. I’m sort of glad because her terrible, customized Reem Acra dress flew under the radar. I can’t believe this was made for her: it’s awful!!! Something nice: her hair looks cute.

Tori Kelly was there to sing the “In Memoriam” section of the show. She wore this black velvet Paule Ka dress. I get why she went for something heavy and dark, considering why she was there, but I bet she was burning up. That dress is way too heavy for a September awards show in LA.

    I think I said it before but she and Zane were the best parts of that amazing show. I am bummed that it did not win anything, maybe next year.

    The dress is a good Givenchy dress and she looks amazing. Not her best, but most certainly not the worst.

      Zahn McClarnon was excellent and it’s so disappointing that he’s been snubbed of any noms or recognition. He moves from being a background character to one that you just can’t stop thinking about. The whole cast was excellent, but he was the standout for me, followed by Kirsten.

    • Marie says:

      She should have won at the Golden Globes. I still can’t believe they gave it to Gaga.

      • Ji-yun says:

        This. It’s been a career high year for Sarah Paulson, so I was expecting her to win last night, despite the fact that I preferred Kirsten’s performance in Fargo. But Gaga’s role in AHS? Seriously? Gah.

      • g.lamerek says:

        Exactly, all the women there are actors recognized for OUTSTANDING work. That was not Gaga, just cause she read her lines OK, basically played herself does not equal an award. Kiki was amazing in Fargo, the whole cast was. Loved it.

  2. Jegede says:

    Meh.
    Dunst looks almost exactly like that other red carpet dress she wore earlier. I forget which award show.
    Long – check
    Black – check
    Fitting – check
    Cleavage akimbo – check
    Knockoff $2 Lana Turner hairstyle – check

    Robin Wright looks crazed but she this is the most animated I think I’ve seen her.
    And I like that

    No implants and no bra, but Kirsten’s breasts look great.

    • Wiffie says:

      Agree she looks great. Breasts aren’t plastic or low, they look natural and I wish mine still looked like that!

      I can’t believe people thought she looked pregnant? I think the shape of the bodice gives the illusion that her tummy sticks out. The triangle shape, wide at the bottom, makes your eyes think it’s protruding. An upsidedown triangle would have been a smarter move. I think she looks great though. Her hair doesn’t change much but it’s beautiful on her! If it works, stick with it I guess.

    I thought Kirsten looked lovely, although I am not a fan of sheer bottomed dresses.

    Robin’s dress isn’t terrible, but that tan is almost as aggressive as Claire’s and is doing her no favors.

  5. grabbyhands says:

    I almost like it, even though I am not a fan of the sheer skirt look. I feel like the top half makes her look…boxy, for lack of a better word. I think I would like it better if the lower half were beaded or something so it looked more like a flapper dress. I think it would balance out a little better,

  6. Samtha says:

    She looked amazing, but she can bring it (no pun intended) better than that.

  7. mkyarwood says:

    She makes it look sculptural, and she has the second coming of Helen Mirren’s boobs. She always looks great. I hope she does something to get some recognition soon. She should have had Oscars thrown at her for Interview with the Vampire, and Virgin Suicides (if Jennifer Lawrence has merited the same).

  8. lucy2 says:

    Maybe it’s just the pose the camera caught her in, but Robin’s dress makes her look shorter and wider than we all know she is.
    Kirsten looks great, and was so, so good in Fargo. I was happy she was nominated, but there wasn’t a chance she’d beat Sarah.

  9. Ji-Yun says:

    I know it’s already been labelled $2 Lana knockoff hair, but I love Kirsten Dunst’s hair here (and at the Globes earlier this year). I think the style really suits her face. I also like the dress, despite the sheer thing going on at the base.

  10. Jayna says:

    Stunning.

  11. LannisterForever says:

    I actually love Robin’s dress! It’s very unusual for her but that’s what makes it cool, and she looks like she’s having fun in it.

    Kirsten looks boring but nice.

  12. ali says:

    I like some elements of Robin’s dress, like the split and the lace bra but somehow its not working: she has one of the best bodies in Hollywood and this dress doesn’t show that. I don’t like the hair tough: those waves looked so dixie-chick like. But I do like that she’s growing a bob.

    But the main question is: did she had a boob job? subtle, and proportional,and probably progressive over the last 4/5 years but I don’t think those are pasties she certainly was more flat chested comparing pictures of some years ago. She’s not changed her weight apparently, but those boobs….please discuss…

  13. I Choose Me says:

    Kiki looked fantastic. Where are people getting pregnant from?!

    Robin’s dress looks like glitter exploded all over her lingerie.

  14. Misti says:

    Kirsten Dunsten style and look to me will always be a Rose Nylund knock off – So notafan at all.
    But she looks cool and serene here. For a while she was staring to look bloated in the face and like she was about to fall off, but she looks content here.

  15. serena says:

    Kirsten looked stunning! Really, she looks gorgeous and that dress is beautiful on her, same with the stiling. It’s too bad she didn’t win but I hope the next will be her year.

  16. Lucy says:

    How did I not know Tori Kelly attended AND performed last night?? Shame on me, really. She did look fantastic, though.

  17. thecookingpan says:

    Kiki looked amazeballs!

  18. Frey says:

    Kirsten has always been one of my favorite actresses and I’m glad she is still gettino good work, but always underrated imo. She looks pretty hot here and is seemingly ageless.

    Robins dress is pretty tacky, buy I like the idea of it…shiny and sexy, but poorly executed. However, she is also ageless and still looks good otherwise.

  19. isabelle says:

    Fargo season 2 best TV this year. Even yes going to say it, even better than GOT. Kirsten was awesome but Sarah Paulson was a perfect Marcia Clark. she would have probably won if Sarah hadn’t done such a good job.

  20. Rocio says:

    She was the most stylish in my opinion. So bad she lost. I like Sarah Paulson but her Peggy was better.

  21. Daffodil says:

    With the platform shoes, the sequins, and the head tilt in that first photo of her, Robin Wright looks like Miss Piggy.

  22. TheOtherSam says:

    Kiki always brings it, looks great here. A redder lip and bolder eye makeup would have offset the dramatic black beautifully. Given her a real silver screen beauty look.

    She’s normally slender but is over 30 now and getting a small paunch that shows up easily on her tiny frame. That may be where the rumors started.

  23. teacakes says:

    Kiki has always had an eye for style, and a gift for working a range of styles, from batshit quirky to straight-up goddess (that Golden Globes Valentino….)

    This look isn’t the pinnacle of what she’s capable of, but she’s also very good at working a black dress+blonde bob, I remember her at the Oscars in 2005 with just those things and she made the rest of the mermaid-dress+updo-wearing crowd look overdressed and overstuffed.

  24. emilybyrd says:

    I love Kristen’s work in movies, and I usually like the way she styles herself. But lately, it seems to me like her eyes are getting smaller and squintier. Is it a natural effect of aging? She’s still so young! Makes me worried for myself, because my eyes aren’t that large to begin with!

  25. Pmnichols says:

    Loooooved her dress! It was on point. Robin tho- wtf?!!! Hideous.
