Red dresses to most people symbolise agony, pain, and sorrow or grief and hence are worn when one is bereaved.

However, red dresses in the fashion world do not always signal danger or grief.

They portray strong feelings of passion, love, boldness, confidence and fearlessness.

They also symbolise good fortune, luck and prosperity.

Red dresses can be worn during special occa­sions like birthdays, engagement, dates and even weddings.

They can also be worn during formal events and casual outings.

Wearing these outfits does not only make one look classy and elegant but it also makes one look more attractive.
