Did the ladies of Modern Family forget to check in with each other before this red carpet event or have a pre-walk conference call to align on all black?

Sofia Vergara, Julie Bowen and Ariel Winter are all wearing the most popular dress color of all time, but it feels like there's some secret at play here. Is the TV trio in mourning about some on-set situation? Did they decide to quit the fashion fighting and go with a cast uniform moving forward? Or maybe some new designer with a serious dark side sent them all free dresses?

It feels awkward to pit an on-screen stepmother against her stepdaughter and stepgrandaughter, but that's how this clothing cookie crumbles.

The modern matriarch set the tone in her hot Herve Leger mini. The scalloped edges give this LBD a youthful feel, but the shimmery accessories take it to tacky town. In contrast is "Claire Dunphy" with somewhat of a Black Swan-inspired style. The voluminous skirt is unique, but it just ends up making her look like a ballerina swimming in an oddly-shaped costume. So could it be that the young gun of the group takes this race? Her one-sleeved, one-slitted Bec & Bridge frock is chic and slimming, plus all the accessories are done right.

Turns out that Alex is the brainy bookworm of the family by day and the sexy younger sister by night. Unless she just stole this from Hayley's closet. What's your take on the trio?
