8 Classy Color Combinations Fashion People Are Wearing This Fall


One of the easiest ways to invigorate your wardrobe this season (or any season!) is by adding a fresh touch of color to your outfits. Color theory happens to be my favorite subject, and today, I'm going to dive into the color combinations that work particularly well together and are dominating among the fashion set this season.
No surprise, chocolate brown and maroonare having a major moment right now—two shades that create visual depth when styled side by side. Another color that looks amazing with dark brown? Zesty lime green—a hue we spotted on the fall runways from Miu Miu to Prada—guaranteed to enliven any ensemble this season. Unexpected delicate pale pink hues are also in the fashion spotlight—a shade that works particularly well with caramel and tan tones.
If you're curious about what color combos the fashion set are gravitating to this season then keep scrolling below, and shop our favorite pieces to lean into the color trends.
Maroon and Chocolate Brown
Rich, dark brown hues are everywhere this season—and as you'll see from this article—it's being paired with a whole host of chic color trends this fall. For a look that oozes classy vibes pair it with a rich maroon/burgundy hue—two shades that live in the same warm family that create visual depth when styled side by side. Opt for a maroon bag or boots to pair with a dark brown blazer or skirt. The options are endless.
Shop:
Navy and Black
Throw out the outdated rule that navy and black are a fashion faux pas. For fall 2025, it's all about seamlessly wearing these two perennially chic and classic colors together. We've spotted the combo on celebs like Zoe Kravitz (matching with Harry Styles!) along with a whole host of fashion people. Try styling a pair of black wide-leg trousers with a navy tee or V-neck sweater for a look that feels fresh and interesting.
Shop:
Lime Green and Espresso Brown
From Prada to Miu Miu, pops of vibrant lime and kiwi greens were spotted on the FW25 runways. Give the color a luxurious look by pairing it with rich dark brown hues—a stunning combination the fashion set has been embracing this season.
Shop:
Primrose Pink and Caramel
Unexpected, fresh, and feminine—pretty delicate pale pink hues made a mark on the fall 2025 runways. The chicest way to style it for fall? Combine it with gorgeous autumnal caramel, tan, and whiskey hues.
Shop:
Damson Plum and Lemongrass
Purple hues were seen all over the F/W 25 runways—particularly shades of the plum and aubergine variety that ooze a vintage glamor. Give the color a casual spin by pairing it with a fresh lemongrass hue which will unquestionably give your look a fashion-forward feel this fall.
Shop:
Olive Green and Charcoal
Not muddy enough to be khaki, but less zesty than lime green, olive sits somewhere in the middle, making it the perfect shade to pair with a whole host of rich autumnal shades. We saw it styled with deep charcoal grays on the Bally and Diesel fall 2025 runways which we can't wait to emulate this fall.
Shop:
Poppy Red and Brown
From taupe to tan, give your autumnal brown hues a spirited pop by pairing them with a touch of vibrant red. Try a brown knit top or blazer styled with a red sweater over your shoulders, or integrate the bold hue into your look via an accessory or pair of shoes.
Shop:
Sky Blue and Dark Brown
Dark brown makes yet another appearance on the list—this time paired with chic pale blue hues. This is such a fresh and easy color combination that never lets you down. For an easy take, try teaming a crisp blue shirt with a dark brown pair of tailored trousers and dark brown accessories.
