Remember at this year's Oscars when Michelle Williams wore a Louis Vuitton gown that was "not quite orange, not exactly coral, not really red," but all-around amazing? Well, even though months have passed and the seasons have changed, that head-scratching hard-to-pin-down shade is still around, and making a huge impact on the red carpet. Just last night, both Nicole Richie and Natasha Poly showed up at events sporting the juicy hue — Nicole attended the FFANY Shoes on Sale gala in a high-collar macramé dress by Australian brand Scanlan & Theodore, while Natasha partied at the Angel Ball with the likes of Kanye West and Kim Kardashian in a sexy knit Roberto Cavalli gown. Both women lit up their respective events, just as Michelle Williams did at the Academy Awards earlier this year — and we're betting that this bold, vibrant color will be sticking around for another round of red carpet revelry.
