Move over butter yellow, it’s autumn and there’s a new trending colour to obsess over.
It’s rich, it’s elegant, and it somehow goes with everything – yep, burgundy is the colour of the season and it’s all over the high street just in time for the cooler weather.
The trend took hold on the AW25 runways back in spring, with designers like Gucci, Prada and Victoria Beckham all showcasing deep, wine-stained hues.
Celebrities have been spotted embracing the trend too with Beyoncé uploading photos celebrating her 44th birthday to Instagram dressed in a custom sheer burgundy gown from Dolce & Gabbana.
But what makes burgundy feel fresh is its versatility. It has all the warmth of red, without the boldness, and pairs beautifully with wardrobe staples like camel, navy, grey and black.
Whether you need a new winter coat or you’re shopping for a new pair of trainers, burgundy is THE colour to go for.
