Gwendoline Christie & the ‘GoT’ ladies at the SAGs: best-looking cast?

wenn22110151

A lot of Game of Thrones people attended the SAG Awards, probably with the hope that they would win Best Ensemble for the first time. They didn’t. Downton Bloody Abbey won Best Ensemble, because NOOOOooo. I’m sorry, but there is no way in hell that Downton has a better ensemble than Game of Thrones. At all. Poor tiny Kit Harington’s resting sadface was even sadder. That’s what you did, SAGs!

Anyway, let’s talk fashion. Gwendoline Christie was pleased as punch to be there, and she wore the biggest, brightest dress she could find. This red gown is by Giles. I don’t like it because it’s satin and it’s wrinkled and I actually don’t think it’s that flattering, but I love her for trying. She’s going for an Old Hollywood vamp look, and bless her for it.

Emilia Clarke wore Donna Karan Atelier. Yeah, I don’t believe this is atelier. It’s really poorly tailored and she looks just as pregnant as Amy Poehler to me.

Natalie Dormer in Naeem Khan. CB liked this dress a lot. It did stand out in a sea of solid colors and I didn’t actively hate it. She was probably the best-dressed out of all the GoT ladies, actually. Nice beachy hair too. Her styling felt very natural, nothing too overdone.

Maisie Williams in a red Azaelea lace dress. She looked cute. She’s getting taller too. Soon she will tower over Kit Harington.

I don’t have an ID on Sophie Turner’s dress, but I like it a lot. She’s pretty, she’s young, why not wear heart-shoes, you know?

    Hello Gwendoline! Emilia bugs. Maisie looks so damn cute. Natalie looks like a watercolor tattoo. Heart shaped no.
    I CANT WAIT FOR GOT.
    The End.

  2. scout says:

    All I can say is I LOVE that show Game of Thrones!!

  3. Sadie says:

    Except for Emilia’s dress, I think all the GoT women look gorgeous!

  4. epiphany says:

    Kit’s the prettiest one!

  5. Nick says:

    I opened this link to look for Natalie Dormer and thought I saw her twice. Sophie Turner looks like a Natalie clone. Maybe its just her hair.

  6. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    Hate the red dress. Hate it. It’s enormous.

    • mimif says:

      She’s 6’3″, that’s like a whole bolt of fabric.💃

    • WendyNerd says:

      THANK YOU! It was driving me NUTS! And people keep ignoring this and saying it looks good! IT LOOKS THE OPPOSITE OF GOOD WITH THAT FIT.

      • mimif says:

        Both of you, to your balloon! Look how much fun she’s having.

      • Rachel says:

        You know, if you just look at the dress, it’s not great. But when you look at the whole picture, she looks fantastic. Her genuine pleasure in being there (and obviously feeling amazing in the dress) elevates the entire look.

      • mayamae says:

        I think the colour looks amazing on her pale skin, and if you’d remove the outer stiff skirt thingy, it would look really good. And yes, she looks like she feels fantastic in it.

    • Snarky says:

      I don’t love the dress either…but she looks so HAPPY in it. It kind if makes me like it.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      I love that she’s having fun. And she feels great in it.

      But I still hate it.

      • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

        Now I feel mean and I’m replying to myself.

      • mimif says:

        Lol I love it when you backpedal, it’s the best. Fwiw, the dress is totally fug, but I can’t hate on her because she’s BRIENNE OF TARTH and she has a big AF sword. Plus, she keeps her word and stuff.

      • snarky says:

        Haha, I don’t think you’re mean. It’s just not a great dress, and you’re saying so.

        Her happieness in it just sort of rocks the bad dress foe me. I just sortof wish I could look that ecstatic in a bright red dress. One of my wierd girl dreams.

  7. CTgirl says:

    One of the great things about Gwendoline Christie is that she is over 6ft and is fearless with her red carpet looks. This Amazon doesn’t, nor should she, shy away from bold cuts, bright color or heels.

    • Me43 says:

      She is also going to be in the new Star Wars movie.

    • teatimeiscoming says:

      As a fellow Amazon, I love love LOVE her; she normalizes substantial height on a woman in television. Everything about this particular look for her works because of the smile she’s got on.

    • lucy2 says:

      I love the color and that she wears heels, but the styling of this at the hips is flattering to no one.

    • Megan says:

      I was at an event with Gwendoline a few months ago and she is is absolutely stunning in real life. She works the hell out of her height and her legs go on forever.

  8. Lydia says:

    Is Emilia’s dress the same as thingamy from the Theory of Everything except hers was pale pink?

    Khaleesi you’re a stunning woman. .. why not show it?!?!

    Love Sophie and Maisie – beautiful girls!

    • taxi says:

      Emilia’s dress is credited to Donna Karan, so not the same as Felicity’s. It does give her a belly bulge though.

      Natalie as a blonde kooks washed out – noticeable lipstick would help. Funny – I think Nat looks better as a brunette & Emilia is better as a blonde. Just mho.

  9. WendyNerd says:

    Am I the only one who has noticed that Maisie’s dress doesn’t fit? Like, at all? In some pictures, you’re just like, “Honey, don’t lean forward. Don’t lean forward. Please don’t lean forward.” It’s super awful. It would have been nice—- If it actually fit. It literally looked like she’d been given a much taller, bustier actress’s dress by accident.

    The SAG awards were just the worst, fashion wise. But at least it got me to care about the SAG Awards for once, if only to gape at the bad clothes.

    On a positive note: KIT HARINGTON DITCHED THE MAN BUN THANK GOD. It was seriously sucking all of the hot out of his face and replacing it with a windowless van.

    • mayamae says:

      I think Maisie’s problem is she needs to stand up straight and put her shoulders back. The dress looks too big because she’s slouching.

  10. Newgirl says:

    Sophie turner’s hair length is my goal! Patiently waiting

  11. Maria says:

    Maisie looks adorable.

    I loathe satin as well, loathe it.

    Not really feeling any of the other dresses tho Jon Snow looks yummy 😥

  12. Marianne says:

    I really liked Natalie’s dress. I loved the print on it. However, I would have loved to see a more bolder lip on her. Her make-up was just a little too nude for me.

    • This…

      It drove me nuts that she seemed so washed out. A medium pink matching the dress on her lips would have made things pop.

      • lucy2 says:

        I agree she looks washed out. She’s very pretty, but her makeup here is doing her no favors.

    • Milena says:

      She looks washed out!

      • Mom2two says:

        Natalie is usually fab on the red carpet and she looked washed out to me. Did not like Emilia’s dress, it did her no favors. I thought Sophie, Maisie and Gwen looked the best.
        Can’t speak on Downton Abbey, since I do not watch the show but GOT season 4 was weak to me.

  13. nk868 says:

    confused – is emilia clarke pregnant or does she just look it??

    • Given her taste in men…Seth McFarland/James Franco…I hope not.

    • ScrewStewrat99 says:

      I don’t know, but something about her face seems off. I didn’t even recognize her. Did she do something to her lips??

      • epiphany says:

        I thought so too, but assumed it’s just because I hadn’t seen her in a while – can”t put my finger on it, but something’s different.

      • FingerBinger says:

        It’s the chicken cutlet cheeks.

      • Ethelreda says:

        I don’t think she’s had work done – it’s just the unflattering make up.

        I do think that she may have put on some weight. She’s never been super skinny, but she does seem to have filled out a bit more, and that unflattering, ill-fitting dress accentuates it.

  14. INeedANap says:

    Isn’t Gwendolyn Christie dating the head designer for Giles? Why does he keep putting her in the most unflattering gowns?? Girl, that’s a deal breaker.

  15. Milena says:

    Yay, all my girls! (And Kit, I guess. He’s just sort of there.) Maisie was best dressed in my opinion – cute, fun, age-appropriate dress. She’s said in interviews that she loves playing with fashion so I always like seeing her hit her stride. Her makeup looks heavy here but photographed better in other pictures.

    Sophie’s beautiful and her hair and makeup are on point, but that dress is like the absence of a fashion statement. That’s what you wear if you don’t want anyone to talk about your outfit. Gwen is a bombshell, but her outfit is purposely over-the-top. Emilia… wow… what happened?

    And I hated Natalie’s look! She looks washed out without a hint of color on her face, and her hair looks understyled. That’s literally what my hair looks like after I sleep in braids and have to use a little dry shampoo because it’s dirty. She’s done so much better.

  16. Sayrah says:

    Yay! GoT!! I have nothing to add except that april is just 3 months away.

  17. Ethelreda says:

    I’m reminded of two things:

    1 – How much I prefer Natalie as a brunette. She’s gorgeous no matter what, but the blonde washes her out and detracts from her unique features.

    2- How utterly overrated Emilia Clarke is. Don’t get me wrong, she’s pretty enough, in the way that any number of young women are pretty. However, if it weren’t for that wig and those dragons, she’d be nowhere near the top of any ‘Hot 1OO’ lists.

  18. Carrie says:

    Natalie looks absolutely gorgeous and Emilia does look pregnant.

  19. Chihiro says:

    I love Sophie and Maisie, their friendship is so cute. They deserve better than the sexist crap that is Game of Thrones. As for their dresses, I like the top part of Maisie’s but not the bottom. I like Sophie’s, but I wish she had gone with something less safe, and I’m not sure I like black on her.

    • original kay says:

      They deserve better? where would they be without GoT?

      sexist crap? have you read it? of course women are commodities in the show and novels, it’s written in a period of time to be that way. it’s not sexist, for heaven’s sake, it’s a novel set in a totally different world.

      • Chihiro says:

        Okay maybe they deserve better was a bit much, I just meant that I like them and would like to see them on something else. Yes for your information I have read the books, but I wasn’t talking about the books I was talking about the show. I stand by what I said about the show, it is sexist crap.

        My two favorite characters were Catelyn and Sansa and the show ruined them, they took away their storylines and made them supporting characters to the men around them. They also continually turn consensual sex scenes into rape scenes (and then deny it was a rape scene). They take out Arianne and replace her with Trystane for no real reason,.They turn Arya into a girl hater, with her line “most girls are stupind” when no such thing happened in the books. They turn Loras and Renly into walking cliches. Now it seems they are turning Sansa into some sex nymph, when in the books, her strength was not in being sexy but in being ladylike. Also there is a difference between a world having sexism, and the writing having sexism, and in this show the writing is sexist as well as the world. Have you read the books? I mean even GRRM is distancing himself from the show, and he disapproved of the Cersei, Jaime sept scene.

      • Chihiro says:

        I mean for heavens sake one of the producer’s said the sept scene wasn’t rape, because “it became consensual at the end.” If you don’t think that is sexist, then I don’t really know what to say.

    • Ethelreda says:

      @chihiro

      Then there’s the fact that while we’ve seen long, lingering nude shots of almost all the adult female stars, the men mostly get to keep their clothes on. Even in the same sex scene! If the boys get to see Daenarys naked just about every season, why don’t we girls get treated to a little bit more of the Kingslayer?

      And I don’t really get the argument that ”oh this was the Middle Ages, so of course it’s sexist”. It’s not like GoT is going for realism. After all, I don’t believe that there were dragons, direwolves and wildings in the Middle Ages. And there certainly weren’t any fake boobs, ‘natural look’ make up or Westerosi waxes.

  20. lovelovelove says:

    Where are the pics of Nikolai Coster-Waldau?!?! I saw pics of him on other sites, why is Celebitchy not showing him? NCW can wear a sack and he’d still look yummy. Is it obvious that man does it for me?!?

    • epiphany says:

      NCW is so hot, so masculine! KIt is a cutie, but sadly, just too tiny.

    • Mom2two says:

      NCW is the best looking guy on that show since Richard Madden left. He looked real good last night. Kit looked handsome as well.

      • mimif says:

        What are you talking about? Everyone knows The Hound is the hottest piece on that show. Him and Maisie have such awesome chemistry on the show, I was sad to see them part.

    • Laurina says:

      Yes, yes, and yes to all of it..!!!

    • GlimmerBunny says:

      Yeah, I demand pics of Nikolaj and Pedro Pascal (Oberyn Martell)! They were both there and they are SOOOO much hotter than Kit/Jon Snow.

  21. alpacabear says:

    Why the weird ‘bless her’ condescension toward Gwendoline? A couple wrinkles aside I think she nailed this! Also, Kit… dang…

  22. Josefa says:

    Gwen’s dress is awful, but she seems to be having so much fun in it. You can’t be mad at her.

  23. Jo says:

    Isn’t that Emilia Clarke dress a very similar style to Felicity Jones?

  24. Laurina says:

    I like Emilia Clarke so much more with blond hair… She looks so much better on GOT… Strange 😀 Does anyone feel that, too?

    • Ethelreda says:

      I don’t think she’s that beautiful even on GoT… though maybe that’s got more to do with her eyebrow acting and expressionless face!

      But like I said above, I do think that when she tops those ‘Hot 1OO’ lists, it’s down to the fact that men are in love with the characer, not with Emilia herself. She’s pretty, but I see better looking girls at the supermarket every day.

  25. Ripcurl says:

    I think the problem in Gwendoline’s dress is the fit. The dress is loose. If it was altered to her shape it would’ve looked better. But she rocked it and kudos to her for showing the world that tall girls should not hold back on the color and the heels.
