All eyes were on Evan Rachel Wood at the [Fashion Group International's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snake-game) Night of Stars in New York this past Thursday. JustJared photographers snapped the sultry redhead (well, for now) in a scarlet fringed [Gucci](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/la-famiglia-collection) gown and cage heels.

**Implications** - The fabulous Gucci toga gown even had bits of gold detailing that stand out well against the deep red. Evan Rachel Wood polished off her look with dangly earrings and a [gold python clutch](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/galleria-handbag) equipped with a cute little tassel. The star looked simply stunning right down to her porcelain complexion and her smokey eyes. Her lips were painted in a pinky-red that paired nicely with her gown. If you look closely, you will see that the gown dips in the back, exposing a hidden tattoo.
