Where to buy a dark red dress?

I’m rather taken with the red dresses worn in the Handmaid’s Tale and wondered if anyone has seen anything similar in the shops? I have had a look online but everything seems to be quite a light, orangey red while I suit a darker, more burgundy red.

Thanks!

If you Google "burgundy jersey dress" quite a few come up depending on budget and style.

Since we’re in “Let’s be nice to M&S” mode this week how about this?
You could get the beauty box too.

Don't forget the white cap.

AintNobodyHereButUsKittens · 05/06/2018 15:38

I rather enjoy the fact that S&B is its own little world where you can say “I was watching Handmaid’s Tale last night and it really made me think about how much I need a dark red frock” and (reasonable, feminist) women will respond “Good idea! Burgundy? Or more of a maroon do you think?”

TheGirlWithAPrince · 05/06/2018 15:43

I too love a burgundy dress but those links just look like a dark pink red to me :( I hate when red looks like it has pink or purple tones to it! I just want a Sexy burgundy dress!

Kenworthington · 05/06/2018 15:55

And the handmaids tale made you think sexy burgundy frock??

Just got to add this one. You just need the cap and then you're done!

Thanks all for your help. I've just ordered this.

Although I completely love this too. However, it is too expensive and they don't have it in my size. Plus, it was designed by Samantha Cameron, who is a tall thin women so I suspect that all these dresses will be really long on me.
