What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Red Slip Dress

The best jacket colours to wear with a red slip dress are black and beige. Black is a neutral, so it lets red be the accent without clashing. Camel, charcoal, khaki and grey also work. Be careful with burgundy: a leather jacket is more casual than a slip dress, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: red and burgundy sit next to each other on the colour wheel, so they blend (analogous).
