Jones continues her change-it-up streak at the 2012 Emmys, where she slinked onto the red carpet in heavy makeup, her new red hair and a voluminous black Zac Posen frock. Well, we should be more clear: while the dress had a poufy Posen-y skirt, the top fell a little flat.
We even got a little bit of a Gwyneth Paltrow at the 2002 Oscars vibe, that infamous sheer braless dress that we dubbed one of the worst Oscars frocks ever.
Eek! Was it really that bad? Check out the pics below and tell us! (Keep scrolling to see all the looks from the Emmys red carpet.)

I don't think the dress is bad at all especially if you like dramatic flair. The personality has to fit the dress. You have to own this look from the moment your pump hits the pavement. She didn't.
I don't want to be part of the "bash" January crew but she could definitely work those gorgeous frocks if she had more confidence on the red carpet.

Oh well...these people are so self worshipping that they think they look great in anything and we should be so lucky to be allowed gaze upon them. We still havent been given permission to gaze upon the glory that is Blue Ivy. So...

This dress is stunning and she has the perfect figure for the dress. I would have liked her hair styled differently - perhaps down with waves. Who wrote this article anyway, a man?

Are you kidding me?? January Jones looks one THOUSAND times more elegant than Gwenyth in that stunning dress. Very architectural, edgy, layered with interesting lines and accentuates her a beautiful shape. This to me stands out way more than the typical yellow that we saw and sequence/bedazzled over the top looks. Gorgeous as ever!
