Fugger: Elisabeth Moss

SAG Awards Fugs and Fabs: Mad Men


Where have you been, January Jones? It’s almost IRRESPONSIBLE of you to withhold your brand of crazy at this time of year. In related news, where art thou, Christina Hendricks?

Well Played, Elisabeth Moss


Man, remember how rough things used to be here? There was a year when Ms. Moss had a decent Fug Madness seed because she either looked rumpled, or chose something matronly, or didn’t insist on a great fit. And now look at her. Our Peggy is all grown up.

This is genuinely lovely, with plenty to keep Basic Black from being Boring Black. It fits her perfectly, and it’s casual enough to be appropriate for the whole daytime Q&A thing (one never wants to look as if one has confused the TCAs with another dressier acronym), yet also fancy enough that she clearly takes her job seriously and thus we’re not looking at her and thinking, “This is WORK, not a hangover breakfast, so BE PROFESSIONAL AND PULL YOURSELF TOGETHER.”

Who Fugged ‘Em More: Elisabeth Moss vs. January Jones


The first news is that Elisabeth Moss has scrapped the blonde.

I actually miss it, although I suspect it’s because Peggy Olsen has not yet discovered peroxide. But maybe what’s holding her back here, for me, is the fact that her makeup seems to belong with a totally different outfit. As do her shorts, which are so nondescript and tiresome. She’s, like, jazz hands on the top and gym rat on the bottom. I wish I could’ve seen the blazer and bright shirt with a skinny pant, or stylized tuxedo trouser. But if she had her heart set on formal shorts, I think she needed more interesting shoes with them. You need to SELL those suckers. To put this in terms Peggy would appreciate, those shorts are baked beans. You need to trick people into thinking they’re a delicious idea.

January Jones also went with formal shorts:

Emmy Awards Fug Carpet: Elisabeth Moss


I do not understand why, more than half the time, Elisabeth Moss can not managed to pull off a major awards show look. She is lovely — and I love the blonde hair on her — but I have this personal theory that she and Christina Hendricks are styling each other and they each go home and say to their spouse/roommate/mom/lovah/cactus/cat/shoe collection, “Poor girl! She is doing SUCH a great job on me. BUT I AM TOTALLY F’ING WITH HER. Mwhahahahahahahahahaahahhaha.”  Like, they’re basically double-crossing each other. It’s honestly the only rational explanation, you guys.

I legit wore this to my 8th grade dance. In 1989. (Never let it be said that I am lying about my age. Never let it be said that the only reason I’m not lying about my age is because I suck at math.)

She looked marginally better at the People pre-party:

Unfug It Up: Elisabeth Moss


Weirdly, my brain keeps trying to tell me that Elisabeth Moss looks like Gillian Anderson now that she is blonde. It’s weird because Gillian Anderson has red hair in my head — Scully 4EVA! — but I’m not sure it’s inaccurate. Let’s look at her dress and cross our fingers that no aliens abduct her and stick a chip in her neck.

Fug or Fab: Elizabeth Moss


Check it out: another makeover. I’m not sure if this is new, or just escaped my notice when she did it.

It’s like she got herself into bangin’ shape, so she went nuts and hacked off all her hair and put herself in a skintight nightie, as if to say, “TA-DAAAA.” I applaud her on the bod, lament her choice of shoes with that dress, don’t ENTIRELY hate the frock as much as I should considering it’s essentially a tailored slip, and can’t decide what to make of her head-suit. Let’s zoom in:

When does Mad Men shoot again?
