SAG Awards 2020 Red Carpet Rundown: The Meh!

My dear readers, it has been a wild few weeks in my life and thus we are even farther behind than we were before! Much to discuss, so let's go full steam ahead!

THE MEH

Cynthia Erivo!
I look at this and see the look it almost was but juuuust missed being. The bottom of the dress is huge and fun but the top is oh so eensy teensy. Additionally, I am not a fan of red and pink together. Points for wearing a necklace but with the volume of the skirt she could have been styled with an absolutely enormous statement necklace and it would have helped mitigate the tiny top. 

Jennifer Aniston!
It is so so so close to being the old Hollywood throwback glamour look she was going for. Indeed, the effect is there... until you look closely at the weird side train that somehow bunches at the pelvis and then languishes on the side. I love the draping on the top but I do wish the left strap was a bit thinner to give a more intentionally asymmetrical look. Almost got it, Jen!

Allison Janney!
If the white part went straight across instead of being tacked up as a one-sided invisible cold shoulder, we would have a winner.

Reese Witherspoon!
This is just so meh to me. It's fiiiiiiiine but the makeup is a little off and the shoes are wrong and the dress seems heavy and stodgy.... but she looks nice. Just meh.

D'Arcy Carden!
The fit is off in the bust and wow, girl, that is not your color.

ZoĆ« Kravitz!
It's oh so very Audrey Hepburn but it's just a skosh too long and, again, girl, that is not your color.

Annie Murphy!
A little bit Alexis? More like a little bit unflattering.

La Kidman!
I have never seen anyone age 15 years between awards shows before! Impressive!

Samira Wiley!
There is a whole thing going on this awards season with large ruffles around the midsection and I am not digging it. That said, her head looks incredible and this color is magic on her. 

Jennifer Garner!
Snoozefest.

ScarJo!
The fit is great and the color is a dream but I do not understand the styling and she clearly sat down in the limo. Tsk tsk.

Catherine Zeta-Jones!
The plunge plus the slit compounded by the starburst in the middle somehow make her look boxy. How can you make CZJ look boxy!?!?! Seems like that should be illegal.

Laura Dern!
Vice Admiral Holdo does not deserve football shoulders.

Emily Hampshire!
Again with the proportionizing! The width of that V simply overpowers her frame.

Glenn Close!
This is only in the Meh pile because of the length of those sleeves. I have no problem with Glenn Close wearing a large formal caftan with cape but I do have a problem with the sleeves threatening to become gloves as well.
