Stand Out From The Crowd in a Red Evening Dress
If you like to stand out from the crowd, then a red evening dress will definitely help you to achieve this. Red dresses are sultry, sexy and feminine, and a great look for those special parties. With Christmas just round the corner, a red dress is a good choice to get you in the spirit and create a festive look. Equally, with Valentines Day not far away, a red dress will get you in the mood for romance, and help you to look amazing.
As with other dresses, you need to make sure the style will suit your body shape. This is particularly important when wearing a red dress, as you will already stand out from the crowd, and don’t want to stand out for the wrong reasons. Types of glamorous red evening dresses include, cocktail dresses, one shoulder dresses, puffball, maxi and silky chiffon styles. Stick to the rules that if your body shape is heavy around the midriff, then don’t wear a dress which will cling to this area, and similarly, if you are heavy of the bottom half, then pick a red dress which will show off your top half and give you a great cleavage. Red dresses are attention grabbing, so wear them with confidence and self assurance, or you will struggle to pull the look off.
After you have picked your gorgeous red dress, it’s time to choose a pair of heels which will flatter your whole look. The best colours to stick to, are either red, of a similar shade or black. If you choose not to wear a jacket with your red dress, then a trendy shrug or bolero will look very stylish and elegant. Again, you should stick to a similar shade to the shade of your dress, or go for a black colour. Other colours, particularly bright shades, will not co-ordinate the look well and will look out of place with your red dress.
When it comes to accessories, you are best to stick to some simple jewellery, rather than anything too big or outlandish. The red dress will create enough attention of it’s own, so you do not want to look too overdone with excessive jewellery. Simple style jewellery, such as a silver necklace, bracelet and earrings will keep your look classy and will not draw attention away from your dress or fabulous figure.
With regards to your make up, stick to the saying that less is more and wear a plain colour for your base, as an orange face with a red dress will not look very co-ordinated. You can, however, easily get away with wearing a bright red lipstick for this occasion, as it will match nicely with your dress, and top off your sexy look.
Red dresses may seem a bit daunting, but if you choose the right style for your shape, and stick to simple, elegant accessories, and a confident attitude, you can easily pull the look off, no matter what size you are.
