Long Red Dress - Why They'll Never Go Out of Style

A long red dress turns back the pages of time, and the red dress is found to be a symbol of class, royalty, power, and glamour. Think Jacky Kennedy, Marylyn Monroe BeyonceNaomi Campbell. Lately, however, it has been misconceived that this piece of fashion accessory has gone out of style, au contraire; this iconic face of penultimate glamour still is very much alive. And we don't mean just on the catwalks of Paris. First, let's not go beyond the borders of mainland Europe to find proof; just not on the catwalk.

As we stray away from Paris and Rome, we might expect to be on a futile search for traces of this fashion piece. Somehow, it may appear that wearing a long red dress can no longer be considered posh nowadays. But wait! Who can be more posh than Posh herself? Yes, believe it or not, Victoria Beckham was seen wearing... a long red dress. If SHE wears it, then you can expect many others to follow suit.

Now, not that we can ever dismiss this as a fashion anomaly, but there's another international fashionista who was also seen donning the same kind of fashion accessory... Kylie Minogue. Posh is a fashion trendsetter on her own but with Kylie Minogue putting on her own show as well, it would be safe to say that the trend is in place. It won't be long 'til a number of celebrities from Hollywood will be seen donning sexy long red dresses... and they won't be wearing a Supergirl costume.

Like any fashion accessory, every piece has its proper place and time. The best time to don these beautiful long red dress is for a gala event or a formal evening party. It can be such a bore or much too warm to wear a jacket every single day. An occasional change in attire wouldn't hurt your look. A cold night can also be a good reason to put one on. Although a night at the Opera or a grand ball can be more than enough excuse to wear one as well.

The great thing about this piece of cloth is that it can elevate your appearance to many formal levels upward. This alone can bestow on you the regal impression you would so desire when you're about to attend an extremely formal affair. A long blue dress may do the job, but this one can raise the glamour so many levels higher.

There can be many designs to choose from. If you're not an animal rights activist, and wouldn't care less about what such people would have to say, there are those that are collared with rabbit fur or lined with sheep fur. These types can give you that extra warmth on a chilly night. Other popular designs are the velvet designer poncho, mink fur poncho, and the grand cape. All these are best worn with silver accesories.

There's probably one good reason, that the long red dress has stood the test of time: not many, if ever there are, fashion accessories can bestow upon the bearer a dash of regality and pomp in the same breadth that this single piece of cloth can.
