What Colour Shoes to Wear with Red Slip Dress
The best shoe colours to wear with a red slip dress are black, brown and white. Black is a neutral, so it lets red be the accent without clashing. Dark brown, tan, beige and cream also work. Be careful with navy and red: sneakers are more casual than a slip dress, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: navy is a neutral, so it lets red be the accent without clashing.
