Question : What is the ruling on a woman wearing a red or yellow garment, or any other color, during Hajj?
Answer : There is nothing wrong with it; that is, there is nothing wrong with a woman wearing whatever clothes she wishes in any color, except for what constitutes tabarruj (display of adornment) and beautification, for she should not do that because she will encounter men and men will see her. And Allah the Exalted said:[Al-Ahzab 33:33] For example, the white garment is considered in our custom to be a garment of beauty for a woman, so a woman should not wear a white garment while in the state of ihram, because that draws attention to her and incites desire to look at her, since it is well known among us that the white garment for a woman is a garment of adornment, and the woman is commanded not to display her adornment in her clothing.

And Allah the Exalted said:
and do not display yourselves as [was] the display of the former times of ignorance
وَلَا تَبَرَّجْنَ تَبَرُّجَ الْجَاهِلِيَّةِ الْأُولَىٰ
