C Correct answer
Explanation

When describing what someone is wearing or the color of their clothing, we use the preposition 'in.' We say 'dressed in black,' 'dressed in red,' 'dressed in a suit.' 'Dressed into' would suggest a transformation, which is not the case here. 'Dressed to' would indicate purpose, like 'dressed to impress,' which doesn't fit the context. The preposition 'in' is used to describe clothing, colors, or costumes.
