    I eventually signed up I have been stalking this forum with years!!

    Im in a situation! I have dyed my hair bright red and none of my clothes suit me now! I have a party next weekend and I had bought a new dress when my hair was brown so basically im looking for opinions.

    Red hair and leopard print dress yay or nay??

    Or should I avoid leopard print all together! Ive never owned one before but Ive always wanted one! Thanks!

    I would say avoid it regardless of hair colour ;)

    Colours I guess would be blue or olive green - green is lovely with red hair

    Lol ! I was thinking that alright its a pity because the shape of the dress suits me! Cant afford to go shopping so I will have to think of something else!

    I have been trying to stay away from ebay tbh for a while I was addicted might have a little look :cool:

    Might be a bit boring but you can never go wrong with black! I would go with dark tones since your hair will be a big focus.

    Royal blue or emerald green would be nice.

    Go for it OP, I love, love, love, red hair with animal prints, especially leopard print! Hot pink is a great colour too, never mind the naysayers, it looks fantastic! Bright colours can look amazing when you have bright red hair, just make sure your makeup is complimentary and it will pull your look together.

    Animal print run.Unless you can show us a pic on you of it?
    Some dresses can be complimented by person wearing it and style etc..

    What Im going to do is try on the dress when I have my hair/make up done and decide then! My hair is more rihanna red than the pics shown. If I have the courage I will post a picture if I decide to wear it! Thanks!

    Nice colour,and if not brave enough to post maybe pm one of us girls and we can tell you if we think looks nice and suits hair colour.
    But one thing for sure is if you like it and it feels good and looks nice to you then you are all that matters.:)

    It might be the case that you wear the dress very well, so sorry if this is harsh but given that there's no picture I've got to say animal print in general is a personal hate of mine, I think it always looks tacky tbh.

    I have natural red hair and I always wear animal print. It's one of my favourite things. Some people's personalities suit it!

    Red dresses can be stunning against red hair - hard to say without seeing the exact shades involved.

    Its all about confidence in yourself OP, I think Rihanna looks far better than the model in this dress, and the clash wit5h her hair makes it that much more eyecatching.
