Amanda Peet

Amanda Peets white, tiered Marc Jacobs gown just didn't seem to work. She looks a lot like a wedding cake. A very frilly wedding cake.

Jessica Biel

Jessica Biel's Elie Saab gown did absolutely nothing for the star's otherworldly figure. Her hair and makeup looked fab, but the dress was just meh.

Tilda Swinton

Swinton looked predictably alien/Bowie-like in a light blue dress and jacket by Haider Ackermann, which she paired with a bizarre, anime-ish hairdo.

Claire Danes

A winner for her work on "Homeland," Danes sported a weird, backless J. Mendel dress topped with sort of an interlaced vest thing.

Sarah Michelle Gellar

The "Ringer" star sported a blue and ink blot print faille strapless tufted ball gown from Monique Lh*illier's Spring 2012 collection.

Ricky Gervais

Master of Ceremonies Gervais looked fairly ridiculous, and not in the good way, in his Ted Baker aubergine tux.

Sharon Osbourne

Sharon Osbourne's Naeem Khan gown was definitely eye-catching, but does anyone else think she looks like she tore the drapes down from her home and whipped up a ball gown with them?

Kelly Osbourne

Actually a fashion consultant for E!, if you can believe it, Kelly Osbourne showed up in a blue Zac Posen gown with matching blue hair. She wins the "Most Likely to Be Confused For Violet Beauregarde" award.

Kyle Richards

The "Real Housewife of Beverly Hills" showed up in a tight, red, strapless gown with a diamond choker. Why was she at the Golden Globes again?

Down 18

Meryl Streep

Meryl Streep is beloved, but this Alessandra Rich dress is not. It's like a cowgirl-meets-ball gown kind of thing. The gown part is gorgeous (bonus points for pockets?!), but the top just looks...too casual?

Nicole Richie

Ritchie wore a silver Julien Macdonald dress with Jimmy Choo shoes that made her look a bit like a disco ball with legs. But maybe she was just tired from obviously sneaking into the Golden Globe awards red carpet.

Busy Phillips

Busy Phillips' Temperley London gown looks like a toga. And also, togas and beehive hairdos don't mix.

Down 17

Emily Watson

Emily Watson's pale pink Giorgio Armani dress wasn't exactly flattering to her figure, and the color sort of washed her out.
14

Up 29

Down 23

Michelle Williams

The winner for "My Week with Marilyn" looked like an extra from "Boardwalk Empire" in her navy and black Jason Wu dress. Both Williams and Charlize Theron wore headbands to the show, but that doesn't make it right.
15

Up 25

Down 21

Tina Fey

Fey wore a wine-colored Oscar de la Renta gown with ruffles at the bottom that, I think, made her resemble Peter Dinklage. Many celebs sported wine-colored gowns at this year's Globes... mini-trend?

Down 19

Piper Perabo

Perabo looked fairly ridiculous in a sheer ball gown matched with sparkly silver shoes. Also, by all accounts, she was probably drunk on the red carpet. Keeping it classy.

Down 17

Missi Pyle

Pyle showed up along her "The Artist" co-star James Cromwell (the greatest accessory of all!) She wore a bold chartreuse gown.

Down 24

Salma Hayek

Some pundits loved Hayek's shimmering black and gold Gucci dress, but let's be honest. She looked like one of the centerpieces.

Down 21

Naya Rivera

Naya Rivera's Vera Wang gown was just strange. The gown itself isn't bad, but it's really wrinkled (big no-no) and the seams look very odd.

Down 17

Elizabeth McGovern

Elizabeth McGovern has always been quite fashionable on the red carpet, but this Jacques Azagury gown just isn't working. It seems...dull? And the black color isn't entirely flattering on McGovern.
21

Up 21

Down 22

Charlize Theron

This is Charlize's go to look. Simple hair and makeup, bronze tan and flesh tone dress, I wished she would've gone with a bolder color as this Dior Couture gown washes her out.

Evan Rachel Wood

Wood sported a green Gucci Premiere gown covered in feathers. It was sort of like she'd murdered an emu before the show and then wore it as a trophy. (Bjork is kicking herself that she didn't think of this first.)

Down 24

Lea Michele

Lea Michele may have an amazing singing voice, but she needs better fashion sense. This Marchesa dress may have been stunning on someone else, but Lea Michele just doesn't have the proper figure for this cut and style. However, we applaud her on a bold choice.

Chris Colfer

The "Glee" star donned a shiny suit and tie for the ceremony.

Mila Kunis

As the new face of Dior, Mila Kunis stayed true to the brand an opted to wear one of their 2012 Spring/Summer dress fresh off the collection.

Zooey Deschanel

Deschanel wore a custom Prada black gown with lime-green beading on the torso. What do you think? Adorable or adorkable? Yes, I really just typed that!

Morena Baccarin

The "Homeland" and "V" star took a big chance with a Edition by Georges Chakra dress featuring a hugely plunging neckline.

Dianna Agron

"Glee" actress Dianna Agron looked more like she'd been caught in some gaudy curtains as she went all in with this ruffled red number from Giles.
