Sometimes I wonder what it’s like for actors to get awards recognition for projects they completed years ago. Amanda Seyfried’s Theranos series, The Dropout, was released almost a full year ago but it feels like longer because the Emmys were back in September. Last night at the Screen Actors Guild Awards she wore a bright green Prada mini sack with a long train. I just reviewed her Emmys look and she went more traditional for that in a pink sequin gown. Last night I was half watching the red carpet live stream on People Magazine’s website and when the camera started scrolling up I went “ooh who is that?” This gown is both striking and a little fug and I like it on her! It’s weird and it looks unfinished but she’s pulling it off. I saw the moment when she met Sally Field too, that was sweet. Sally received the Lifetime Achievement Award, presented by her Spiderman costar, Andrew Garfield.
Amanda’s styling is perfect for this:

Speaking of perfect styling, here is Jennifer Coolidge in Saint Laurent. She won Female Actor in a Drama Series, for The White Lotus! You can see her speech here. She’s so grateful to Mike White for changing her life with this role. The White Lotus also won Ensemble in a Drama Series.
Laura Linney was also nominated in that category for Ozark. She wore Christian Siriano and I like the gown enough, especially the open draped sleeves, but her hair and makeup seem too rock and roll for this look.

Laura’s costar Julia Garner, also nominated for Female Actor in a Drama Series for Ozark, was in Gucci. She was a double nominee as she was also in Amanda Seyfried’s category, Female Actor in a Television Movie or Limited Series, for Inventing Anna. These actresses playing scammers are getting recognition. What in the name of Little Mermaid is this dress? I’ve never seen an entire dress made out of that fabric. The color, material and cut are so bizarre and random.
I love how Jennifer Coolidge always looks both fantastic *and* comfortable. I aspire to that.
She looks so chic here!
Green is my favorite color and I love the shade of green Amanda is wearing. I would call that apple green.
Amanda’s dress needed to be fitted better but the color is gorgeous, she’s carrying it off, her styling is perfect, and she looks adorable.
The rest are just all wrong.
She was giving off major Sharon Tate vibes with that look.
You are so right, very Sharon Tate.
Sharon Stone wore that same hair at one point in “Casino” and I loved it on her too.
That’s exactly it, thank you!
Agreed. I love the color, she looks fantastic, it just needed to fit slightly better. But overall its a great look on her.
I LOVE her hair and makeup so much. I wish the dress was evoking more of a 60s vibe too. But I love the color on her. She’s so pretty.
oooo love the green, her whole look is so 1960’s, love it
Amanda looks great. Love the 60s vibe!
I love what Amanda did with her hair and makeup here! It’s different from what she usually does and it’s so fun and retro. She looks cute and gorgeous at the same time. Yes, the color of her dress is Kermit-like but I still like it on her. Not many people can pull off that color. At least not many fair-skinned blondes.
I don’t care for any of the other dresses. Julia’s looks like a costume? I love that color but it’s too much. Jennifer’s dress is basically a black column. It’s statuesque and flattering but it’s also pretty boring.
I agree with all of this.
The styling of Amanda’s look is perfection.
Love Amanda’s dress. This is how you do green, Kkkate.
I had the very same thought!
I’m so glad Julia Garner changed her hairstyle. She’s been wearing it Ala Madonna in Desperately Seeking Susan and it both aged her and washed her out. This was a much cooler look for her.
I love Amanda‘s hair, don’t love the dress.
Jennifer looks fantastic, she’s having such a career resurgence, I saw her in like three movies in the last couple weeks.
I don’t like the dress itself, but that copper color of Julia’s is so cool, that could’ve been so much better.
Amanda looked great. Creative without being crass. I loved Jennifer Coolidge’s look. Are headbands back now? Let me know. Anyway, two massively talented women in totally different ways.
Omg Jennifer’s eye lift is amazing! She looks so fresh.
So is Laura’s! Well done.
I love Amanda’s and Jennifer’s hairstyles.
Laura and Amanda look fantastic — Amanda’s dress is perfect for her.
I feel like Amanda and Julia’s dresses are good concepts that were badly executed.
Julia’s dress is too heavy for her imo. She is a tiny thing with a build that needs lighter/tinier details. A gauzy fabric and smaller jewels would have been perfect but instead she’s just weighed down
One of Seyfried’s friends needs to call the fashion police because Prada just attempted an assassination.
I personally dislike the colour, and the shape of the dress looks like a lumpy box… It’s giving ‘Christmas present that got crushed in your luggage’. But she still manages to look beautiful and I think she’s actually carrying it well!
The color on Amanda is great, but the dress looks extremely cheap .
Agreed. The color is beautiful and the dress is delightful, but the sewing work does give off cheap. That being said, Amanda is working this retro vibe. She looks great.
I love the look on Amanda – it’s cute and fun. I just finished the first season of White Lotus and and am excited to start the second to see Jennifer Coolidge’s hailed performance. Finally, that is NOT Jula Garner’s usual style at all. It’s too…tapestry looking. Too old on her.
The hem is throwing the fit of the dress off balance, turning what should be a beautiful look into a stiff bag.
I love Amanda’s dress. I love the color and the style of it. She is rocking it
I actually like the color of Amanda’s dress, but the design and her styling are so aggressively 60s mod retro that it looks almost costume-like.
I love Amanda’s look! So fun and stylish
Amanda looks so happy and confident in that dress. She’s wearing it well!
