Often synonomous with winter or the festive season, the hottest hue for autumn 2024 has landed, and we're in love. Burgundy is having a real moment, with everything from nails to cardigans and dresses popping up in rich wine and plum shades.

How to style a burgundy dress

Arguably a more wearable alternative to red, burgundy is easy to style with neutrals, denim and more. Burgundy looks great teamed with metallics, too, so you can add some chunky gold jewellery for a statement finish. If you love a bold look, then burgundy also pairs brilliantly with this season's hottest print; leopard. Opt for animal print accessories or footwear for maximum impact.

The perfect transitional colour, burgundy instantly adds a chic touch to any outfit. If you tend to opt for black or darker colours then wine shades act as a great alternative without feeling too bright. We love a burgundy dress with heels, boots or trainers. If you opt for a dress in a material that's easy to layer then it should see you through multiple seasons teamed with knits or outerwear.

We've scoured the high street to bring you our favourite burgundy fashion buys covering everything from midi and maxi dresses to bags.

Burgundy midi dress

We're big fans of a midi dress thanks to the comfy length and its ability to see you through multiple seasons. A burgundy midi dress can be styled with sandals for a late summer look and then worn well into autumn and winter with boots and a jacket or stylish coat. Here's our pick of the best burgundy midi dresses to add to your basket this autumn, but hurry, we can't see them hanging around for long!

Burgundy maxi dress

If a maxi is your length of choice, then look no further. Perfect for adding warmth and super practical, we've found some gorgeous burgundy maxi dresses to invest in. Thanks to the classic hue, they can easily be dressed up or down depending on your occasion, giving you maximum wear for your cash.

How to style a burgundy bag

Burgundy bags are the perfect way to dip your toes into the trend without committing to a statement piece. Great for dressing up neutrals or adding a fun touch to an everyday look, burgundy bags come in all styles including roomy totes for work or crossbody bags for going hands-free at the weekend.
