is it correct?

is it correct?
 
I found an activity revising colours in which the teacher should say "are you wearing in...red?" and all students wearing red clothes should stand up. It goes on with different colours. I have doubts though, whether you can say "Are you wearing in...."
I �d rather say "Are you wearing red?" or "Are you wearing sth in red?" or "Are you wearing sth red?"
What do you think?

Agreed - Are you wearing red? or Are you wearing something red? Both are fine.

If "in red" must be used you could say
"Are you dressed in red?" or "Are you in red?" but I would never use "wearing" and "in red" together.
