Get juicy in a simple orange dress like Alicia

She's the actress of the moment, and Alicia Vikander isn't just winning fans on the big screen, she's fast becoming a top fashion icon too.

Attending the Academy Awards Luncheon, Alicia made heads turn by showing off her enviable figure in simple orange short sleeved dress by her favorite brand, Louis Vuitton. We've spotted her at the SAG Awards in LV and as they say, if you've got a winning pairing, don't change it up.

The vibrant color highlights her tan and golden brown hair. Sometimes going simple is best since it lets the woman shine.

We can't think of anything more appropriate for the luncheon and so we've rounded up a few of our own favorites from across the web - all guaranteed to make an entrance at your next meeting or event in the most understated but fabulous way.
