The Emmy After-Parties

Julia Louis-Dreyfus and Tina Fey

Julia Louis-Dreyfus

(in Vera Wang) might not have won an Emmy, but she did have an award-winning story to tell fellow guests like Tina Fey (in Gucci) at the Governors Ball. "The guy who did my hair got lost with his cab [on the way to my house]. The driver got so mad, he threw my hairstylist out of the cab and drove off with all of his hair equipment," Louis-Dreyfus said of her pre-Emmy drama. "We had to call the police and everything!"

Blake Lively and Jessica Lange

After making a quick change into a not-so-basic black Balmain dress, Blake Lively hit the HBO after-party, where she congratulated Grey Gardens star Jessica Lange (in Zac Posen) on her big win. Lively's Gossip Girl co-star, Leighton Meester, also swapped her gown for a LBD before hitting the Emmy bashes.

Cat Deeley

She spent most of the ceremony providing commentary from backstage, but So You Think You Can Dance host Cat Deeley finally got a chance to show off her front row-worthy Alberta Ferretti gown at the Fox after-party, held at L.A. eatery Cicada.

Mariska Hargitay, Jon Hamm and Jennifer Westfeldt

"I [was] more scared about trying to be funny next to Tina Fey," said Mad Men star Jon Hamm about his Emmy nomination (the trophy went to Fey's 30 Rock co-star, Alec Baldwin). While Hamm and girlfriend Jennifer Westfeldt-who mingled with Mariska Hargitay at the Governors Ball-both wore Gucci for the occasion, the actor admitted he had a much easier time getting dressed. "I stayed out of the way and watched football," he said.

Jessica Stroup

She didn't attend the ceremony, but in true 90210 form Jessica Stroup arrived at Hollywood hot spot Vibiana just in time for the 13th annual Entertainment Tonight and People magazine after-party. Christina Hendricks, Jennifer Love Hewitt and Mary J. Blige were among the other stylish women who joined in on the fun.

Ginnifer Goodwin, Jeanne Tripplehorn and Chloe Sevigny

"I've been texting the whole way with Jeanne and Chloe," said Ginnifer Goodwin (in Yves Saint Laurent) of keeping tabs on the whereabouts of Big Love co-stars Jeanne Tripplehorn and Chloe Sevigny (in Isaac Mizrahi) as Emmy night unfolded. The trio finally met up at the HBO reception, held at the Pacific Design Center.

Lindsay Price, Josh Radnor, Alexis Denisof and Alyson Hannigan

Happy couples Lindsay Price and Josh Radnor and Alexis Denisof and Alyson Hannigan caught up at the Fox bash, where Glenn Close showed off her Emmy, Mila Kunis showed off her Monique Lhuillier gown and Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine hit the stage to entertain the crowd.

Jon Cryer and Toni Collette

"I've met a crazy amount of security guards and I'm just getting to know the cops," joked United States of Tara star-and Lead Actress in a Comeday winner-Toni Collette (in Monique Lhuillier) of her Emmy evening. After congratulating fellow winner Jon Cryer (in Moschino Uomo), Collette made her way into the Entertainment Tonight and People magazine party for some unsupervised fun.
