There’s a reason every other actress wore a red dress to the Oscars. Who needs the red carpet when you’re already swathed in crimson? Red flatters most everyone -- blondes and brunettes were spotted in the color -- and it announces itself as dramatically as Joan Collins on a marble staircase. Get one.

The Rage scoured the Web and came up with this draped, one-shouldered jersey dress from Calypso Christiane Celle ($250) that can be worn different ways and even hand washed. It’s perfect for traveling and you can drape it differently to create a halter style too. Pair this dress with ballet flats or white or metallic sandals. No accessories needed. Red doesn’t like to compete with jewelry.
