== Films -- Animated ==
* Mother Gothel from ''[[Tangled]]'' wears a red dress.
* [[Go -Go Enslavement|Slave]] [[Disney Princess|Jasmine]] from ''[[Aladdin (Disney)|Aladdin]]''.
* Esmeralda's poledancing outfit from the "Topsy Turvy" number from ''[[The Hunchback of Notre Dame (Disney)|The Hunchback of Notre Dame]]''. Ironically, in real life, red is actually considered bad luck for Gypsies, and since [[Complete Monster|Judge Frollo]] was actually watching her dance in public...
* In ''[[Beauty and The Beast (Disney)|Beauty and The Beast]]'', the Bimbettes (well, one of the three, at least) wore a red dress and was pretty busty anyways... Although she and her sisters were [[Brainless Beauty|stupid]].
Line 74:
* The Devil (Liz Hurley) in ''[[Bedazzled]]'' starts off in a red dress.
* In ''[[The Sixth Sense]]'', the mother of the dead child at the funeral/wake is wearing a red dress. {{spoiler|She ends up being exposed as the killer.}}
** However, this might just be a more generic instance of [[Colour -Coded for Your Convenience]] since, in the commentary, [[Word of God|M.N.S.]] states that the color red was used throughout the movie to indicate any times the ghosts were "influencing" the real world - basically, any scene that had ghosts involved had some red.
* Ginger from ''[[Swordfish]]'' was in a red dress when she made her intro.
* Shoshana in the end of ''[[Inglourious Basterds]]'' is a heroic red lady.
Line 85:
* Early in ''[[The Mask (Film)|The Mask]]'', Tina shows up at the bank wearing a clingy red dress, distracting Stanley while innocently inquiring about opening an account and surreptitiously casing the joint.
* After being called a "priss" and presumed to be uptight for the earlier part of the movie ''[[Swing Kids]]'', Evey shows up at a swing party in a bright red dress. The look on Peter's face when he sees her is priceless.
* ''[[Frantic]]''. Emmanuelle Singer changes from her [[Hell -Bent for Leather|black leather look]] to a tight red dress when they go to an expensive nightclub; it's probably not a coincidence she [[Mating Dance|dances uncomfortably close]] to Harrison Ford in this scene.
* One of Padme Amidala's dresses seen in ''[[The Phantom Menace]]'' that is most used to show her outside the movie is a magnificent crimson dress, a color which is a traditional symbol of royal authority, as a 14 year old queen isn't trying to be sexy.
* In ''[[Deep Rising]]'', this is Trillian's outfit for the first half of the film.
Line 124:
* Isabella from ''[[Robin Hood (TV)|Robin Hood]]'' often wore red dresses.
** In the series 2 episode 'The Booby and the Beast', Marian wears one to attract Count Friedrich at the insistence of the Sheriff.
* ''[[The X Files]]''. Agent Scully wears a red cocktail dress in "Triangle", where she's [[And You Were There|an OSS spy in 1939]]. It's notable that this is the [[Kiss Me, I'm Virtual|first time Mulder kisses Scully]], and quite passionately too (though she still gives him a [[Megaton Punch]] in response).
* ''[[The Mentalist]]'', "Russet Potatoes" features a woman in a red dress.
* [[Law and Order SVU|Alex Cabot]] is only ever seen in a smart suit. Until she goes on a date with Trevor Langan (which is even odder when you remember that, in real life, [[Reality Subtext|he is married to, and has a son with, Olivia]]), for which she wears the epitome of this trope. The whole scene was a complete [[Mind Screw]] with all the conflicting [[UST]].

* ''[[Anyone Can Whistle]]'': "Ze Lady from Lourdes" = Nurse Fay Apple + [[Wig, Dress, Accent|red dress + wig + outrageous French accent]].
 
 
Line 169:
* Mei-Fang of ''[[Arcana Heart (Video Game)|Arcana Heart]]'' slips into a Chinese red dress in her victory pose if she wins with most of her health.
* Saranda from ''[[Infinite Undiscovery]]''.
* [[Highly -Visible Ninja|Mai Shiranui]] of ''[[Fatal Fury]]'', ''[[King of Fighters]]'', and the ''SNK Vs. Capcom''/''Capcom Vs. SNK'' games.
* ''[[Blaz Blue]]'''s [[Chinese Girl|Litchi Faye Ling]].
* Saving these is one of only two ways to restore your health in ''[[Spelunky]]''. {{spoiler|The other way is sacrificing them to Kali.}}
