if you see how they accessorised the model in the picture you will see 1. black patent belt and 2. black patent bag,wearing a necklace with it would ruin the outfit i would say keep it simple,lets say if you were going to the races you would wear a simple small black oval hat with it and a bag and a belt,but if you put a necklace with it or bracelets it could add too much detail and make it too fussy.

Dress is lovely for a wedding... would not put a patent belt with it but I would say it needs a belt to cinch in the waist...

I would go with a colour blocking clutch/chain strap bag, a small narrow belt and stillettos.

unfortunately, with a red dress, if you're not going black accessories, you're looking at cream or white.

i agree, dont use the belt in the pic, maby a thin black belt, they can look classy, with a gold cuff bracelet and a chain strap bag as Scealta_sao said above.

Depending on hair up or down, long earings would be nice instead of a necklace maby
