Miranda Lambert in a Hohan pageant dress at the CMAs: unflattering or pretty?

Here are some of the fashion photos from last night’s CMA Awards in Nashville. I only watched a few minutes of the live broadcast last night, during commercial breaks of the Rachel Maddow Show (What? Maddow is my Forever Biscuit!). You can see the list of winners and losers here – from what I gather, Blake Shelton and Miranda Lambert had a big night, and it increasingly feels like they’re the “First Couple of Country Music” – a title which used to belong to Faith Hill and Tim McGraw. Little Big Town, Toby Keith, Kenny Chesney and several other acts walked away with big prizes too.

Miranda Lambert wore Maria Lucia Hohan… I don’t like it. At all. She’s a short girl with curves, but she dresses like she’s a tall girl with no curves. I don’t get it. This dress makes her look stumpy, and I don’t think it’s the right color for her either.

Colbie Caillat looks fantastic. Great black dress, totally wearable. Miranda Lambert might want to try this style.

Here’s Carrie Underwood, who was the co-host of the show (with Brad Paisley). She wore Reem Acra, and it looked like the same kind of pageant dress she always wears. Maybe it’s Carrie who makes all of these dresses look like pageant-wear.

Hayden Panettiere in Georges Chakra Couture. Hayden was there because of cross-promotion for her show Nashville. Connie Britton was there too, we just don’t have those pics. Anyway… I think Hayden looks cute. Kind of a Jazz Age throwback vibe.

Here’s Kellie Pickler in a Pamella Roland. The dress is flattering and Kellie has a great figure. Her hair looks like that because she shaved her head a few months ago in solidarity with a friend who has breast cancer, which is a really sweet and lovely thing to do. Her hair’s in kind of an awkward stage right now, but it’s sort of cute too.
