There’s a new trend sweeping the red carpets of our favorite award shows.. No it’s not bad make-up or ill-fitting dresses (which were present, in full force, at yesterday’s Emmy awards). It’s not bad plastic surgery (Joan Rivers and her spawn no longer work the red carpet).

No, the trend hitting the red carpet is the short dress. Eva Longoria, who I think wore it best, shows that a short, cocktail dress there’s other options for black tie occasions.  Personally, this is a trend I love because cocktail dresses tend to be significantly cheaper and less “Cinderella” than a full length ball gown.

So what do you think?
