The COLOUR that makes MEN more ATTRACTIVE to WOMEN

Guys, if you’re feeling a bit deflated after all the excitement of Christmas and New Year Celebrations, we have a little fun psychology to cheer you up.

Should you wish to make a big impression on a member of the opposite sex, forget flowers and chocolates, just try adding a bit of red colour to your wardrobe instead.

According to a study appearing in the Journal of Experimental Psychology wearing the colour red makes a man appear more powerful, attractive and sexually desirable to women. Since ancient times, red clothing has symbolised ardour and courage; the Spartans, Persians, Romans and Gladiators all embraced it.

Men wearing red are perceived to be of a higher status and therefore more likely to earn a better living. Red dyestuffs were historically extremely expensive due to the fact they were not readily available. This led to the colour red being seen as affordable by only the affluent as emblems of significant wealth and influence.

Why do women like men in red?

 It’s also interesting to note that in non-human species such as apes, fish and birds, the alpha males display red colouration to attract amorous females. So, if you want to catch the attention of a lovely lady, make sure you are displaying a flash of red such as a jacket, scarf, tie, pocket square, shirt or, a even a bag.

Researchers made some undergraduate girls look at pictures of a man against either a red or white background and then rated the man's attractiveness. The man was rated significantly more attractive when he was pictured against the red background. A red jacket can be a great asset.

There's Something Appealing About A Man Wearing Red

If a whole jacket in red seems a bit daunting, why not try a scarf. There are several ways to create a style that suits you best.
For a casual look, simply drape over both shoulders.
For a preppy look, wrap once around your neck and dangle one end backwards over your shoulder.
For a smart, tailored look, make a loose knot at the front and tuck into your coat or jacket.

A red tie is called the power tie for a reason and implies that you mean business. Just like Tiger Woods wears a red shirt to convey dominance, the red tie is a reaffirmation of strength, authority and dominance within the professional world.

A Red Pocket Square Says You Mean Business

 Leading global football teams choose red shirts because it’s a colour that demands attention.  A red shirt is associated with long term success in English football.

A sporty red bag adds that essential pop of colour. This could be a rucksack, holdall or work bag. Always choose leather for maximum effect.
