Chic Or Shabby: Shorts On The Red Carpet?

imageOver the winter (ironically enough), dress shorts became popularized as the latest evening-appropriate replacement for the mini, and now that summer is looming ahead, we’re bound to see the trend even more frequently among club-goers. One place we haven’t seen them too often, however, is the red carpet. Until now, that is. Gwyneth Paltrow rocked clean white shorts and a matching blazer at the Iron Man 2 world premiere, while Amanda Seyfriend donned a black Viktor & Rolf set at the Tribeca Film Festival (the fact that they’re in contrasting color schemes is just begging for a “who wore it best” duel!). And fashion blogs everywhere are throwing a fit! Are dress shorts chic enough for a Hollywood event, or is the red carpet meant to be a sacred place of style saved only for suits, skirts and dresses? Weigh in below on which actress you think pulled off the look in a premiere-appropriate manner, or if you think shorts are not suited for the carpet at all!
