Color is the best tool to work with when creating an iconic red carpet look. However, only a few celebs have succeeded in owning one of the R.O.Y.G.B.I.V. ‘s. Here are the top most memorable celebrity color looks from the rainbow.

1. Red: Rihanna

Red is such a bold, powerful color and who can match that energy more than Rihanna? The accomplished singer/actress wore this astonishing bright red Giambittista Valli couture dress. The ball gown features an especially low cut off-the-shoulder neckline which scandalously held her cleavage in just the right way. A flowing train also followed behind her as she made her rounds at the event.

Rihanna paired the dress with ruby and gold jewelry and a matching Jimmy Choo clutch. She sported red lipstick as well as slicking back her long, beach waved hair. The artist wore this look to the European premiere of Valerian And The City Of A Thousand Planets in which she played the alien shapeshifter known as “Bubbles.” R is for Red and for Rihanna.

3. Orange: Marilyn Monroe

Throwing it back a few decades, Marylin Monroe takes the prize of the most iconic orange look. In her 1953 movie, Gentleman Prefer Blondes, she certainly proves that with a beaded bright orange formal dress. Monroe’s long time costume designer, William Travilla, put her in this staple piece along with many others throughout her career.

This pumpkin orange color was something out of the box for Marilyn but that did not stop her from pulling it off so delicately. The chiffon ruched dress was detailed with shiny rhinestones along the bust line and down the front center of the dress which, believe it or not, was where the zipper was. The look was topped off with a matching stole which draped behind her. This dress is a prime example that Marilyn Monroe can make anything work.

5. Green: Jack Harlow

Seemingly everyone’s celebrity crush, Jack Harlow, sported a sophisticated green leather suit look. Attending the 2021 MTV Video Music Awards, Harlow paired his Bottega Veneta jacket and pants with a black turtle neck and black boots with green soles. It was a seemingly simple look while still offering enough head turning elements. The color in itself was bold but the leather material pulls it all together.

With this outfit, he appeared on stage with another honorable mention on this list, Lil Nas X, as they performed their song, “Industry Baby.” The duo make quite the team with their talent and fashion debuts. Apparently the color green at the VMA’s in 2021 was a popular decision as rapper, G-Eazy, wore a vibrant, bright green outfit. However, Jack Harlow wins our hearts and our favor for this particularly green event when it comes to celebrity color looks.
