How To Wear The Burgundy Trend To Every Event This Fall/Winter

If you’ve been scrolling through TikTok and Instagram or following all the latest runway trends, you’ve likely noticed a resurgence of the burgundy hue for this fall and winter season. You can wear this rich hue for any occasion and in countless ways, from elegant dresses to cosy sweaters. Let’s look at how to style burgundy pieces for formal occasions, work events, and casual get-togethers if you want to follow this season’s fashion trend but don’t know where to start.

Weekend Errands

Burgundy is the ideal way to dress up your laid-back weekend ensemble this Fall or Winter. Its rich colour adds a touch of sophistication to anything you team it with.

Pair a cosy burgundy sweater with jeans and sneakers for a simple yet stylish look while you’re running errands around town.

Or you could easily replace the sweater with a soft cardigan and fitted white top underneath for an equally fashionable look.

Another trendy combination to try is a grey miniskirt and matching sweater with a burgundy cardigan draped over your shoulders. Keep things coordinated with a pair of see-through black tights and complementary burgundy accessories.

Brunch Date With The Girls

The beauty of brunch is that it can be as casual or dressy as you want it to be, and the same is true for a colour like burgundy.

This fall/winter, go for a chic look by dressing up your trendy black mini dress with an oversized burgundy coat or leather jacket when you’re out to brunch with the girls. Add black accessories for effortless styling.

Wearing a burgundy sweater with grey, sail, or brown trousers will help you keep your look simple but chic. You can spruce up the look by accessorising with adorable burgundy pieces.

However, if you’re not sure you want to commit to the burgundy colour, you can still look put together by dressing in something neutral and adding a pop of burgundy to it. A grey skirt and sweater worn with burgundy stockings has just as much visual impact as a full burgundy outfit. 

Workwear Look

Burgundy can create a casually elegant workwear look when paired with versatile neutrals like black, tan, or grey.

For a more daring take on the trend, try teaming a burgundy leather coat with pants and a sweater in one of the previously mentioned neutral hues.

As an alternative, you could wear a burgundy blazer with matching pants and accessorise the ensemble with neutral pieces.

For a subtle pop of colour without going crazy, you can choose to use burgundy to highlight your neutral ensemble by trying a scarf, shoes, or handbag in the rich colour.

Date Night Outfit

Burgundy will surely be your best friend when styling an elegant look for date night this fall and winter. It is inherently sensual and sophisticated, so you can’t go wrong incorporating it into your ensemble.

A burgundy dress is a classic choice for a night on the town. Wear this statement piece with black booties or heels for an effortless style.

If dresses aren’t your thing, a burgundy skirt is always a stylish substitute. Satin skirts are still a popular choice for date night outfits, and they look especially stunning in a rich burgundy hue. Wear your skirt with a black bodysuit and heels, or keep things tonal with a matching burgundy top.

An equally reliable choice for an evening out on the town is a burgundy jumpsuit. Jumpsuits are comfortable and stylish, and you can personalise the look by wearing them with a trench coat or an edgy jacket for a distinctive look.

Formal Event

A burgundy evening gown will undoubtedly make you the centre of attention. It’s just the right balance of elegant and bold for a formal occasion.

Consider accessorising a burgundy dress with gold or silver accessories to add a glamorous touch when glamming up for a formal occasion. Burgundy goes so well with these shimmering colours; the combination will instantly add an air of refinement and luxury to your overall look.

However, you could just as easily go for a more sleek and stylish look by accessorising your burgundy dress with black pieces.
