If you ask me, color trends are the best trends. And since they're not dictated by climate, you can start wearing them before many of the other upcoming trends for a given season. This fall, we predict that burgundy will emerge as *the* color to wear. Even though the rich, elegant hue is typically thought to be an autumnal hue, people have been embracing it all summer long. It's a strong indication that it's really going to be everywhere when September rolls around.
The first indication of the bright future of burgundy was actually on the S/S 24 runways, where Gucci and Bottega Veneta, among others, laid the groundwork. Even more brands jumped on the oxblood bandwagon with their F/W 25 collections, including Prada and Ferragamo. Additionally, burgundy has been all over the red carpet and my Instagram feed as of late, and every time I check a site's new arrivals, there are new burgundy goods to shop. So yes, we were right. In celebration, let's shop.
