Black Coats Will Always Be Chic, But This Rich-Looking Alternative Shouldn’t Be Overlooked

There's nothing I love more than being cosy. Give me a warm drink, some cashmere socks and an oversized coat, and you're guaranteed to become my favourite person. For this reason, autumn/winter dressing is something I will always delight in. Whilst I understand the appeal of investing in new knits, for me, the crème de la crème of an autumn outfit will always be the snug layer on top.

Almost an outfit in itself, a great coat is really all you need to ensure a chic cold-weather look. Encasing you from shoulders to calves, it's arguably more important a garment than a classic pair of jeans or a crisp white tee. As such, I take the purchasing process of a new coat very seriously and have stumbled upon a new outerwear trend that I'm very excited about.

Rather than disappearing into the crowd of typical black and navy coats that populate the streets once the weather starts to dip, this season, I've noticed fashion people are adding a fresh colour into their rotations. Enter the burgundy coat trend.

This elegant alternative to a classic black coat adds the warm wash of colour that autumn outfits often need whilst instilling your look with a moody edge perfectly suited to these crisper months. Wearing well with the richer shades that often dominate cold-weather palettes and wardrobes, the colour styles well with browns, greys and blacks. That said, I've also seen it paired with pretty peach and dusty rose for super-chic results.

Already in the wardrobes of fashion people in Paris, Amsterdam and London, I predict it won't be long until this trend really starts taking over. Searches for burgundy clothing and burgundy shoes are spiking right now, and the change of season is sure to see the demand for burgundy coats rise, too. As well as dominating my Instagram feed, burgundy layers were a fixture in the autumn/winter 2024 collections in February, affirming that the trend has plenty of mileage yet.
