Fashion trends: How to wear red

Red can suit everyone. Melissa Nicholson at Kettlewell colours advises that it’s about finding the right shade for your individual skin tone to ensure that you look and feel good in this dynamic hue. Scarlet is the most universal red, whereas raspberry complements cool complexions and a tomato red looks radiant on warmer skin tones.
