Miss

Mindy Kaling is just meh in a coral and silver satin gown.

30 of 59 Kyle Rover/startraksphoto.com

Miss

Hayden Panettiere took a page from her Nashville character's book with a glitzy silver beaded gown with a ton of cleavage. While we love a woman showing off her baby bump, this dress is more Grammys than Emmys.

Miss

Allison Janney is all wrong for the summer ceremony in a purple velvet dress with a weird bow around her waist.

50 of 59 Lucy Nicholson/Reuters/Landov
