Pockets are pretty useful for human beings. You can use them to store stuff that you really need, to keep your hands warm, or even just to strike a really cool pose. The possibilities are, quite frankly, endless.

But, when it comes to women's clothing, pockets are the one thing that are conspicuous by their absence. Speaking as a pocket-loving woman, trying to hunt down an outfit with pockets is basically the same as hunting for the Holy Grail.

Olivia Colman, Oscar-winner and clothes-wearer, likely knows this struggle all too well. She rocked up to the Academy Awards in a dress with pockets.

We're not sure whether Colman was making a deliberate statement, but we are here for it regardless.

Colman wasn't the only person sporting a pocket on the red carpet.

Sarah Paulson also looked extremely cool wearing this pink-pocketed gorgeousness.

Gemma Chan also led the pocket-wearing revolution.

Wearing pockets shouldn't be a radical act, but until they put pockets in all our clothes, expect a lot of fanfare about pockets!
