2013 Emmys: The Black, The B&W, and The Nude (If Jen Aniston Were Coming, This Is The Post She Would Be In)

And then there were those ladies who stuck to their guns. The ones who never veered off the classic but beaten path. Some dared to take risks with these dresses (and failed--ahem, Amanda Peet and anyone else wearing a black turtleneck gown. You know who you are.) but others knew when it was right to play it safe. See for yourself. See which ones made my cut and which ones I want to throw off the bus in my best and worst post!
