It’s not the cut of Emily Ratajkowski ‘s dress, but its color: a bright red. We saw this in the collections of the designers for fall/winter 2023/24 strikingly often—from Alexander McQueen to Gucci and Prada to Zadig & Voltaire. Reason enough, therefore, to appoint it already as the trending color for the upcoming season.
This seems to be a stark counter-trend to the recently celebrated Quiet Luxury hype, which tends to favor more muted and neutral shades. Of course, red is anything but inconspicuous, as Emily Ratajkowski’s look shows. The color can be worn—as the model does here—in an all-over look, like a dress or suit. But if you like it a little quieter, you can always do individual accents in the form of bright red accessories.
A red dress like Emily Ratajkowski’s can be an amazing confidence boost. And all the better that it doesn’t have to be designer, because the bright color has already started conquering our favorite affordably-priced stores. So it’s worth it to buy now and combine your red dress with sandals in summer. When fall comes, you can wear it with sneakers, ankle boots, or knee-high boots and layer a blazer on top.
