Amanda Holden to Gal Gadot — how to wow in red like these famous ladies

STARS are seeing red after setting their wardrobes ablaze with the fiery colour.

The catwalk has spoken and scarlet fever is rife, with high-end brands Fendi, Valentino and Gucci all making it the key trend for this year.

Hot on the heels of big brands, famous faces such as actress Rebel Wilson and Love Island’s Zara McDermott are wearing red.

Jules says: “While red is an attention-grabber, pink is its softer neighbour.

“Combining these two colours can be seen as harmonious.

“They encompass a playful side with a compassionate nature, while red boots show Ashley striding forward with a spring in her step – an unstoppable and purposeful stride.

“Holly uses black to provide a more sophisticated and striking background for the playful red florals, which are fun-loving and romantic.”

Jules says: “Wearing a bold red coat can increase a sense of warmth.

“Kate provides lots of energy and stamina in her royal roles, which she carries out with enthusiasm while brightening up everyone else’s day.

“A red dress is sassy and feminine, while also empowering.

“Rising so early in the morning for her job means that reaching for red will help give Susanna the energy boost needed to get up and go in a hurry.”

Jules says: “Red has the longest wavelength of light, so appears closest to us when we see it.

“As a colour, it demands the most attention.

“Wearing all-over red means these ladies will be standing out from the crowd, full of confidence and high energy, showing passion and excitement for the job they are doing, event they are attending or project they are initiating.”

Jules says: “A dark or plain outfit is chic and stylish but doesn’t take centre stage.


“Wearing a hat that adds a pop of red is a great way to add some glamour to any look and bring attention to the face because of its eye-catching hue.

“A red mask will encourage everyone to smile, which Kate always manages to do so well.”
