Following her Kentucky Derby disaster, Ginnifer Goodwin really needed to step things up several notches at the 2012 Meta Gala to erase the horrible memory.
She should consider herself totally redeemed as she looked sensational wearing a Monique Lhuillier gown.
The tangerine silk-chiffon cap-sleeve gown with an embroidered neckline and draped skirt and leather tangerine belt was styled with H.Stern jewels.
I would be lying if I said that I liked her Brian Atwood silver satin pumps, but I want to give Ginnifer a pass for getting everything else so right.

The pumps are such a big no.
I hate satin pumps in general but silver sating paired with an orange gown??? What was she thinking!?
Those shoes are hideous with this dress and probably the gown would have looked better on someone a bit taller, but the dress itself is so exquisite that I really like this look overall.
I love everything but the shoes….why such a heavy pump with a delicate and beautiful gown? And would it kill her to smile?
I prefer the black dress like the runway model wore. I barely can see the detail on her.
And can she just choose an orange pumps to match her dress?
I love that she chose to wear this dress in orange, it’s such a great color on her. But I totally agree about the shoes. I saw way too many pairs of satin pumps last night.
The shoes are fug. The dress on the otherhand is splendid! I prefer the tangerine color to black.
The gown is far more stunning in orange. I don’t know why Monique made it black on the runway. Ginnifer’s stylist was clever to change the color.
She looks amazing and I don’t mind the shoes even though they aren’t correct.
I love this dress on her, she is quite brave with her choices and this is beautiful. Love the orange, not keen on the shoes, at least they weren’t black…
this is much better than that previous, deplorable hat ensemble.
if she had just changed her shoes, this look wld have been perfect

Snow White looks amazing
The tangerine is flattering but the spectacular details show up much better in black. There are no words for the shoes…
Gorgeous. Beautiful colour, beautiful fit, love the neckline. My favourite Met 2012 look so far.
She needs a shoe swap though, I would love to see what other choices of shoe she could have worn.
Such a stunning dress.
Nude pumps would have been better than those silver ones.
I adore adore adore this form the ankle up. She does this look better than almost anyone, and as a favourite form last year she was hte one ot watch for me. I also maintain that these shoes look better in real life than under flashbulbs & cameras, so I can forgive it as long as it is never to ever ever happen again.
If she had worn the runway version than I would’ve liked nothing about this look. But the tangerine colour is soooo amazing!
Now Ginnifer who made you wear those hideous satin pumps to such a delicate gown? If I would’ve saw only o tiny piece of the shoes than I would’ve gave her a pass too but they are too distracting. Although I love the gown I can’t love the overall look.
Don’t like the pumps. The dress is super-eye-catching and she’s one of my favorites!!!! Top five! (And I don’t usually like orange!)
Oooh girl, I love this! I like it so much better in this color than the black (and I normally like black dresses). I will look past the shoes, too.
I tend to agree with you, the dress is not bad, pity about the shoes.
She has the most striking and beautiful face. I love love love this dress, it is stunning, especially in that colour. Definitely redeemed!
I love both versions!!! Amazing.
Fits her perfectly. The colour, everything, superb!
The pumps were not a good choice, but the rest of the look is nice.
