The Skintones…
For Deep Dark to Dark Skintones.
Consider a “True Red” in a solid, matte fabric to create a pop but also complement the your skintone.

For Medium Skintones and Skintones with a Yellow Undertone
Consider a red that’s not quite a true red, but not quite a true oxblood in luxe fabrics such as satin and neoprene.

For Light Skintones and Skintones with Pink undertones.
Consider a deep, dark oxblood dress to create a pop that’s not too loud.
