It's a dress in a million...Hand-made by intuitive Mrs Giorgescu in sleek, scarlet satin, it's a dress for seduction. Its journey begins with Carolyn - beautiful, successful and universally liked - who plans to wear it at her silver wedding party to remind Oliver (should he need reminding) that he's the luckiest man he knows. But it takes supreme confidence to wear a dress like that, and by the time Carolyn collects it from the seamstress her world - and her confidence - have been shaken. She opts instead for the safe elegance of basic black, and gives the red dress to a friend...So the dress' journey continues, touching four more lives, the repository of hopes, dreams, fantasies and aspirations.
