Crimson nightmare

Dress, £45, asos.com Heels, £195, lkbennett.com

FIRST the good news: this crimson colour scores highly for drama, no matter what your skin tone or hair colour. Next, the fit, which is fabulous over my hips and waist, but less so in the bodice.

In my case another reason to fear the ultra-plunge neckline is that sensitive skins can become bl ot c hy in the decolletage area when we are too hot. In any case, there is so much going on it’s easy to be drowned in all the detail.
