"It's a little prom queen but I love it," Cuthbert told Joan Rivers on E! "I wanted to do simple, I didn't want to do too crazy." Evan Rachel Wood, 16, of "thirteen" wore a simple metallic gray spaghetti strap gown, with minimal, radiant makeup and loosely pulled up hair, and "Joan of Arcadia" star Amber Tamblyn, 20, wore a pale apricot corset gown with handkerchief train by designer Reem Acra. Carson Kressley, the fashion guru on Bravo's "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy," was wearing a pink jacket. Get set for super-short miniskirts in autumn this year, if trends at last weekend's shows for New York Fashion Week are any guide for the fall season. Along with chunky turtlenecks and peacoats, the leggy look was big at shows for Nicole Miller, Lacoste, BCBG Max Azria, Erin Fetherston, Abaete and Kimora Lee Simmons' Baby Phat line - among the early previews for editors, retailers and stylists at the tents at Bryant Park. Most minis were paired with opaque tights and ballet flats, a good sign for women who bought into those trends last fall. Treat those things with care and you'll get another season out of them. Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week still has plenty of time for new "it" items to emerge. Runway shows run until Friday with Oscar de la Renta, Diane von Furstenberg, Zac Posen and a new incarnation of Bill Blass yet to preview their collections.
