    According to several official fashion sources, red is the color of Fall 2017. Max Mara and Fendi agree that no matter the shade, scarlet, crimson, or maroon, the runways are red hot!

    According to Elle.com: There were sleek coats at Givenchy, monochromatic looks at Tod's, and a statement OTK boot by Fendi soon-to-be seen all over the street style circuit.

    Throughout the decades, red has always been a color that makes a strong statement. So, whether it’s a power dress, statement boots, or a bold purse that pops with color, don't be red-faced, parade out the best red clothing and accessories from your vintage collections.
