When Selena Gomez [1] stepped out in a satin red Dior number [2] for last night's screening of Rudderless, our jaws dropped. Not because it was a sexy, statement-making look for the 22-year-old star, or because we've spotted that same dress on the red carpet before. (Pretty Little Liars [3]' Lucy Hale wore it the Teen Choice Awards [4] in August.) It was actually because we've been browsing red frocks for weeks, contemplating whether or not to sport one to our next big event.
Now, we're pretty much convinced: we want need a bold LRD in our lives. From weddings to the holiday season and even Halloween [5], this color is a surefire way to stand out in a crowd (in a really, really good way). See Selena's full look ahead and then scroll through to shop some of our red-hot picks.
