Put yourself in the red this party season

Beauty blushed this season, with red rising from lips to eyes to (at Miu Miu) the tips of the models’ hair. There is a red dye to suit you, promise: a rainbow from pillar box to plum to a bright strawberry stain. But if you fancy a less permanent dabble, then nails and lips are the fastest way to dip a toe into a trend that guarantees that unique kind of vampy glamour. It’s time we all saw the red mist.
