Red, once the colour of Baywatch swimsuits and Chris De Burgh songs, is now having a bit of a fashion moment.

It is a daring, bold colour and if anything is going to pull you out of your January blues it is a nice splash of red (no, not wine remember those resolutions?)

Want some inspiration of what you can make in red? Take a look at my Pinterest board. There are some classic vintage shapes from Handmade Jane, surely she is the original Lady in Red? Closely followed by Tilly who also loves a bit of red adding her own je ne sais quoi to the clothes she makes.

Feeling ready to take on red? Here are some of our favourite red dressmaking fabrics
