Colours for autumn 2020, or wine in a classic edition
The colours for autumn 2020 offer a wide range of possibilities for anyone who wants to introduce at least a bit of colour into their wardrobe. Timeless black works each autumn season, but this year it is accompanied by a rich palette of multicoloured shades.
Next to the classics of autumn, we are dealing with a strong cobalt shade of blue, a juicy orange of a strong character, as well as with a subtle yellow and an energetic lemon. These intense colours for autumn 2020 are intertwined with a neutral palette of beiges, browns and, of course, greys. However, we cannot forget about autumn classics, among which dark bottle green and sophisticated deep wine consistently triumph every year.
These classics return to the runways in the collections of the most important designers and fashion houses every year. Burgundy is an autumn shade of red, which is much darker, but also has a strong character. It is not as demanding as classic red, which is why it is so eagerly used in women's collections, both in the main elements of wardrobe and in accessories and small additions. This year burgundy appeared in many collections, including on the runway of Lanvin, Alberta Ferretti, or in beautiful evening creations of Prabal Gurung.
Burgundy dress—femininity with a hint of mystery
Burgundy fascinates designers and women of all ages. It is a colour that changes its character depending on the styling you choose for it. It is expressive and strong, so it works best in the evening, although it can also be found in a typical business wardrobe. Depending on the material, texture and shade, a burgundy dress or skirt can look completely different.
Kenzo dress is an example of how burgundy looks in a casual, everyday version. Made of a thicker fabric, perfect for cooler autumn or winter days, the Kenzo dress fits well into everyday styling. It’s worth matching it for example with leather or suede boots and adding a decorative belt with a visible logo, which will give the dress expression and a fashion character.
Not only burgundy dress—how to wear burgundy?
A burgundy dress also combines well with many colourful elements of clothing. The noble shade of wine feels great in the company of bright beiges, creamy whites and greys. You can lighten it with delicate accessories or give it an even more evening look with the help of black, navy blue, or bottle green. This season it is worth juxtaposing it with non-obvious colours such as cheerful orange, sharp pink, or venomous green. This year's autumn palette strongly points to the dominance of vivid and expressive colours. Combined with the savoury and elegant burgundy, they create a styling that is hard to take your eyes off.
Wine shades are not only about burgundy dress. There are also wide skirts, such as those from Acne, cosy and warm coats, fashionable plaid skirts and, of course, leather handbags, which in this colour look exceptionally elegant. You can wear them in the company of other colours or create a sophisticated burgundy total look.
