I've Studied It—These 7 Colours Make Burgundy Look Even More Elegant

Whether you follow the trends stringently or have simply bought something in the last three months, chances are that you now have something burgundy in your wardrobe (if you didn’t before). While brown was one of the biggest colour trends of 2024 early on, and is still very much at the top the leaderboard as it were, burgundy has been giving it a run for its money over the past few weeks and, dare I say, surpassing brown in popularity. Elegant, timeless and more versatile that it might initially appear, I’m excited the colour is finally getting the attention it has long deserved.

I’ve always had a penchant for deep red colours. I am blonde and very pale, and I found they complimented my colouring nicely. That said, I’ve always thought it was one of those Holy Grail colours that everyone looks great in, and now that it’s, well, everywhere, this is being proved out day over on my Instagram feed.
