Agree. It looks like Rouge H to me. If you do a search there is a thread on how Rouge H has changed through the years. Sometimes it's brown, sometimes red, sometimes a purple/brown. What year is your Kelly?
 
This is my K32 sellier 1978 and she looks plum too! I include a family photo with other Rouge Hs to show the differences. Hope it helps. I LOVE this version and really glad to see another similar :D My Drag is 1964 - cherry shade, alligator Princesse from the 70's maybe and not sure about the Fonsbelle.
