What color is the Oscars red carpet this year?

The Oscars opted to return to tradition this year and roll out a red carpet that is, well, red. 

Last year, stars walked down a champagne-colored red carpet, the first time the carpet had not been red since 1961, according to the Associated Press.

Lisa Love, a Vogue contributor and creative consultant for last year's Oscars, led the decision to change the carpet, according to the AP. "This is just a lightness and hopefully people like it," Love said. "It doesn't mean that it's always going to be a champagne-colored carpet."
