A red lace dress with a high collar
Lace in Christmas red feels festive before you've even picked your shoes. Our Frill Lace Dress is woven lace with a high collar, long sleeves and buttons at the front, and it is lined. We wear it with black heels, and that's all it needs.
High collar and balloon sleeves
Our Draped Dress is a red mini dress with a high ruched collar, balloon sleeves and a defined waist, with covered buttons at the back. Here we break it up with black: a small black bag and black pointed heels. If you prefer a more structured shape, our Shaped Mini Dress is a fitted wine red mini dress with a deep V-neck, short puff sleeves and front pockets, styled with black tights and black pumps.
A red suit for the Christmas party
A dress isn't the only way to wear red to a party. Our Shaped Blazer is a wine red blazer with a fitted, slightly nipped-in shape, covered buttons, lining and shoulder pads. The matching High Waist Pleated Trousers have a high waist, front pleats and wide legs, and come in three leg lengths. Swap the blazer for our Shaped Blouse, a fitted wine red blouse with puff sleeves and concealed buttons, and you still have a matching set. The blouse also works with jeans.
A red top with cream
Vmpolly LS High Neck Top from Vero Moda is a red woven top with a subtle shimmer, a high neck and a draped, defined waist. Here it's worn with cream wide trousers and black heels, a softer way to wear red to Christmas dinner.
A red dress in maxi or midi length
Going long? Draped Ruched Ankle Dress from Bubbleroom Occasion is a red maxi dress in stretchy jersey, with ruched seams along the sides, a high neckline and short puff sleeves. We wear it with black pointed heels. For something softer, our Knitted Midi Dress is knitted and fitted, with long balloon sleeves and buttons all the way down, best with light slingbacks with a low heel.
How to style red
- Match your set. A blazer or blouse with the same trousers completes the look.
- Break it up with black. Black heels and a black bag frame the colour.
- Soften it with cream. A red top with cream trousers feels lighter.
Red dress FAQ
Which shoes go with a red dress?
Black pointed heels are what we style red with most often. With a knitted dress, light slingbacks with a low heel work well.
Which bag goes with a red dress?
A small black bag. It doesn't take the focus away from the dress.
What do you wear to a Christmas party if you don't want a dress?
A wine red suit, or a red blouse or top with wide trousers.
Which colours go with red?
Black, cream or white all work well. A red blazer or blouse also looks great with jeans.
