At first, I wasn’t very amused about the green Oscar de la Renta dress Emily Blunt put on for the 2012 Screen Actors Guild Awards. But as the sea of gowns produced the usual sleek black ensembles, organza peaches, even shiny purples, I thought how ingenious of Blunt to pick the unlikely hue.

So if you feel like being a little risqué in your next dressy affair, then you might want to consider green! Shopbop has several emerald hued gowns, new releases featuring different style aesthetic. Read on and see which lush dress best suits you.
Long Gown with Lace Detail, $2,675, No. 21
The loose drapery and lace detail of this No. 21 dress makes it befitting the hipster girl. It features a detailed back of criss crossed lace straps on an otherwise open back.
Babs Bibb Maxi Dress, $425, ONE by Contrarian
For the slightly more traditional, princess-like fit, this long silk dress does classic V neck and ruched waist but surprises with a very bare back.
Snejana One Shoulder Gown, $298, BCBGMAXAZRIA
This is the closest style we can find to Emily Blunt’s Oscar de la Renta dress. Aside from being one-shouldered, this ultra green jersey maxi dress features a long slit at the skirt.

Glitter and sequins is the way to go for the adventurous personality. Bring on the sparkle and relaxed fun with this scoop neck sequined maxi dress which features side slits and– yes, pockets!
