Zorica Rebernik has spent her life in red and plans to stay that way － even after she dies.
佐莉卡．瑞柏尼科大半輩子都在紅色中度過，並且打算死後也不改本色。
After four decades dressing in the color from head to toe, the 67-year-old Bosnian has had tombstones made for herself and husband Zoran － whom she married wearing a red gown － from a special red granite imported from India.
這位67歲的波士尼亞（譯按：全名為波士尼亞與赫塞哥維納）女士，40年來從頭到腳都穿著紅色。現在她幫自己和丈夫佐藍，用印度進口、非常特別的紅色花崗石做了墓碑。當年，她也是穿上紅色禮服與丈夫完婚。
The retired schoolteacher lives in a red house, where she and Zoran eat from red plates, drink from red glasses and sleep in red bedding. Even her hair is dyed red.
身為退休教師的佐莉卡住在一棟紅房子裡，與佐藍一起用紅盤子吃飯、紅玻璃杯喝東西，並睡在一張紅床上，甚至連頭髮都染成紅色。
"When I turned 18 or 19 there came a sudden, strong urge to wear red," she said. "There must not be a single dot of any other color on my home decorations or clothes."
她說：「當我18、19歲時，突然產生想穿紅色的強烈衝動。我的房屋裝潢或衣服，絕對不能有一丁點其他顏色。」
"In my hometown, everybody knows me and would offer me different red things. But I would reject any gift that was not red, no matter how precious," she also mentioned. She even goes to funerals dressed in red, eschewing traditional black.（Reuters）
她還提到：「家鄉的所有人都認識我，會給我不同的紅色物品。但不論禮物多麼珍貴，不是紅色的我就不收。」她甚至迴避傳統的黑色，改穿紅色去參加喪禮。（路透）
