"The era of blinding sparkle and outsize blowouts is a thing of the country music past--instead, modern starlets are embracing chic mini-dresses and fashion-forward designer labels, like they did at last night&amp;#39;s Academy of Country Music Awards. Check out the evening&amp;#39;s best dressed women--and vote for your favorite!--after the jump.\nPinterestFacebookPHOTO: 2010 Denise TruscelloTaylor Swift usually favors blingy gowns in neutral shades, so it was a refreshing change to see her in this lavender chiffon gown from Marchesa&amp;#39;s spring 2010 collection. She looked sweet and age-appropriate--and she shined like a true star, even without sequins!\nPinterestFacebookLAS VEGAS - APRIL 18: Singer Jennifer Nettles of Sugarland arrives at the 45th Annual Academy Of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 18, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

Her black strapless gown had just enough sheen to make it unboring, and her layered necklaces helped make it look more modern.\nPinterestFacebookLAS VEGAS - APRIL 18: Actress Nicole Kidman arrives for the 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 18, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada.

I like the dress--it makes her legs look crazy long and it has a subtle elegance that says &amp;quot;Keith is the real star tonight!&amp;quot;--but I wish she&amp;#39;d worn a great pair of stilettos in a bright color instead of those little booties.\nSign up for Glamour.com&amp;#39;s Style Tips of the Week and Beauty Tip of the Day newsletters!\nPinterestFacebookLAS VEGAS - APRIL 18: Actress Kristen Bell arrives for the 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 18, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Denise Truscello/WireImage)\nPHOTO: WireImageKristen Bell also went for a thigh-grazing hemline in this sexy dress by Herve Leger. Nude is obviously very in right now, and I think she did a great job matching the shade of her dress to her skin tone, which is really the key to pulling off this look.\nPinterestFacebookLAS VEGAS - APRIL 18: Actor Matthew McConaughey (R) and girlfriend Camila Alves arrive for the 45th Annual Academy of Country Music Awards at MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 18, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Jeffrey Mayer/WireImage)\nPHOTO: WireImageI&amp;#39;m sort of torn on Camilla Alves here--I&amp;#39;m loving her look from the waist down (check out that sultry thigh-high slit!) and her accessories are perfect, but the top half of that dress doesn&amp;#39;t do anything for her figure. What do you dolls think?\nPinterestFacebookLAS VEGAS - APRIL 18: Carrie Underwood poses at the 45th Annual Academy Of Country Music Awards at MGM Grand Garden Arena on April 18, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada. (Photo by Jordan Strauss/WireImage)\nPHOTO: WireImageMy vote for best dressed of the evening goes to Carrie Underwood, in a ruffled cocktail dress by Basil Soda. She almost always nails it on the red carpet, in my opinion, and this is no exception--bold enough to make her look like a true star, yet still restrained enough for the event.\nWhat do you think, ladies?
