Julie Marsden (Davis) has a place in New Orleans society and a man who adores her, Preston Dillard (Henry Fonda), but she scandalizes society and her beau when she insists on wearing a stunning red gown to a ball that requires ladies to be dressed in white. Marsden's headstrong action begins a chain of events that will reveal both her raw viciousness and the profound depth of her love and sacrifice for the man she lost.
