It has already been well established that orange is the new black, thanks to the highly addictive, Emmy-winning Netflix series. But tonight s season-five premiere has us wondering—besides what might happen in the aftermath of that cliffhanging prison-wide riot, could orange also be the new red? When it comes to finding a fresh lip color for summer, the answer seems to be yes.
Just this past season, fashion shows in New York, Milan, and Paris made the case for a jolt of pigment with shades from persimmon (think soft tangerine lids at Fenty x Puma) to poppy (see Versace), and now that it’s the warmest season, it s time for an orange crush to go full swing. Whether it s Dior s citrusy Dior Addict in Riviera or something with a hint of sheen, like Estee Lauder s lipstick in Frosted Apricot, these four hues will inspire your own peach or papaya days—unflattering prison jumpsuit not required.
