Red Dresses: A Staple for Every Woman’s Wardrobe

Edie Silk Full Skirt Shirt Dress

A red dress is an expression of confidence and timeless elegance. Owning a classic red dress should be a cornerstone of every wardrobe. The rich hues of red have an innate ability to complement a wide range of skin tones and body shapes. Our Edie silk full skirt shirt dress in particular is designed with flattering cuts that enhance natural curves while offering sophistication and comfort. It also boasts a refined silhouette perfect for formal settings.

There’s no denying the confidence boost a red dress provides. Whether you're venturing out to a formal dinner party or attending a work event, wearing red helps you stand out and project self-assuredness. Red dresses are also known for their versatility, with an ability to pair with a range of coats and handbags alike. You can pair our Celia silk maxi full skirt wrap dress with our classic Gabriella leather clutch bag in black for an understated look, or go bold with the Gaby velvet clutch in red. Jewellery in gold or silver tones, along with neutral heels, can effortlessly elevate your outfit.

A red dress can transform even the simplest wardrobe into a powerhouse of style. The vibrant tone ensures that all eyes are on you, whether you’re attending a formal gala or a casual evening event. Our dresses by Jasper Conran London perfectly encapsulate these benefits, making them indispensable wardrobe staples.

How Can a Red Colour Palette Complement the Winter Season?

Gwendolyn Ball Necklace

Winter is the season of indulgent tones and festive celebrations, making it the perfect time to embrace red. Red is synonymous with the holiday season, evoking warmth and joy. A red dress paired with a statement necklace is ideal for Christmas parties; our Gwendolyn ball necklace is a classic choice, and pair with vibrant red dresses and classic black numbers.

While red is a standout winter colour, it’s versatile enough to be worn throughout the year. Our Celia maxi dress is the perfect choice for formal events no matter the season, ensuring you look chic and sophisticated.

At Jasper Conran London, we offer a range of coats that complement red dresses beautifully. Opt for a structured black or camel coat for a formal appearance, or choose a belted wool coat for a chic, casual vibe. Our Geraldine wool blend long coat in black is the ideal choice for pairing with a red dress, combining elegance with comfort. The combination of a red dress and a statement coat creates a layered outfit with depth and sophistication.

How to Accessorise a Red Dress

Jewellery

Jewellery is a key component in accessorising any outfit, and with a red dress, it becomes even more impactful.

Greta Watch Chain Bracelet

The warm tones of gold create a harmonious blend with the richness of red. Opt for a delicate gold pendant or chains such as our Gwyneth necklace and earrings for understated elegance. Our statement gold Greta watch chain bracelet also adds the perfect touch of glamour.

If the occasion calls for a statement piece, let your jewellery shine. A bold necklace with intricate detailing or short and long balled earrings can turn the Edie dress into a true showstopper. Just remember to balance the look—if you’re wearing statement earrings, opt for a simpler necklace, and vice versa.

Handbags: Your Perfect Companion

A well-chosen handbag not only completes your outfit but also serves as a functional accessory. At Jasper Conran London, we offer an array of options to pair with your red dress:

Gaby Velvet Clutch in Red or Black: Ideal for evening wear and festive events, the luxurious velvet finish adds texture and richness. The red option creates a tonal look, while the black offers contrast for a more subdued elegance.

Gracie A-Frame Shoulder Bag

Gracie A Frame Shoulder Bag: For a chic everyday look, the Gracie bag is a versatile option. Its structured design works well with the simplicity of the Celia dress, perfect for office parties or casual dinners.

Giavanna Sequin Clutch in Black: Sparkle and shine with this party-ready clutch. Pair it with the Edie dress for New Year’s celebrations or formal evenings when you want to add a touch of glamour.

Gabriella Leather Clutch Bag

Gabriella Leather Clutch Bag in Black: A timeless classic, the Gabriella clutch is ideal for nearly any occasion. Its minimalist design ensures that your red dress remains the focal point, while its quality craftsmanship adds subtle sophistication.

Coats: Elevating Outerwear

Layering a coat over your red dress is not just practical—it’s an opportunity to enhance your overall look.

Geraldine Wool Blend Mid-Length Coat

A well-fitted coat in black, navy, or beige creates a polished appearance. The structured silhouette complements the elegance of the Edie dress, for example, making it perfect for formal events or work functions. Our Geraldine coats can be long or mid length, providing you with a coat that suits your personal style.

If you want to make a fashion-forward statement, try a coat in a contrasting colour, such as black or even a patterned plaid. These choices can add visual interest while maintaining the red dress as the centrepiece.
