Introduction
Red dresses are amazing, but they can be tricky to wear. If you don’t take care of them properly, you might look more like a hot mess than a beauty queen. Remember that red is not just any colour; it is one of the most powerful colours in all of fashion. This article will show you how to make the best out of your red prom dress and ensure that no one misses their chance with an eye-catching gown on their arm!
Choose a dress that flirts with your body shape.
Red dresses work best on curvy women. The low-cut neckline draws attention to your cleavage, which can help highlight your assets. If you are an apple-shaped woman, a short strapless dress can be flattering for you because it creates the illusion of length and balances out your top-heavy figure.

A-line dresses also look great on curvy women because they create a waist and flatter curves by hiding hips and thighs.
If you are tall and thin, avoid fitted sheaths or mermaid styles that could make you look even taller than usual (unless that’s what you want). Instead, opt for a gathered skirt or A-line dress with a higher waist, as this will balance out your height with more volume around your middle area.
Make sure the colour of your red prom dress doesn’t clash with your skin tone.
Red can be a powerful colour, but it’s not for everyone. If you have fair skin, it’s important to ensure that your red prom dress doesn’t clash with your skin tone. Red can make you look washed-out or washed-up; it can make you look pale or even jaundiced; if someone has sunburn, a bright red dress will only worsen the situation.
Accessorise well to bring out the best in your dress.
You want to make your dress look as good as possible, which is where accessories come in. You can use them to help with any number of things.
- To highlight specific areas of your outfit that you want to be highlighted (e.g., a statement necklace).
- To downplay problem areas (e.g., a cute pair of shoes).
- To complement the rest of your look (e.g., an embellished clutch bag).
Don’t go overboard on the makeup.
There’s a fine line between makeup that looks natural and makeup that is too dark. To avoid overdoing your look, keep your eyes simple by applying eyeliner and mascara (make sure they’re not too black.) The same goes for lip liner and lipstick: choose one shade that matches the dress but isn’t too dark or bright.
If you want to go bolder, consider using red lipstick instead of lipstick in other colours. If you choose to wear extensions or wigs, ensure they complement your hair instead of overpowering it. And last but not least, choose comfortable footwear that doesn’t hurt your feet!
Don’t wear hair extensions or wigs if you’re not used to them.
Many people don’t realise how expensive and hard-to-maintain hair extensions are. If you wear them, make sure you buy good quality ones—don’t go for the cheap ones in the drugstore aisle (they will fall out). Also, take care of your extensions! Don’t sleep in a bed full of rats and lizards or roll around on rocks in them. That will cause damage and breakage very quickly.
Finally, there are many ways that you can style your natural hair for prom without using extensions: buns, ponytails, braids, curls…the list goes on!
Conclusion
Well, there you have it. The best of your red prom dress. Hopefully, this guide will help you find the perfect red prom dress for your big night out!
