5 Ways to Style Burgundy This Fall

Pair a burgundy knit with chocolate-brown tailored trousers for a rich, softly tonal combination. In this look, the folded off-the-shoulder neckline balances the clean line of the trousers.

Try a V-neck knit as an alternative if you prefer more coverage or a neckline that layers easily. A small front tuck, a simple belt and a burgundy handbag keep the focus on the warm colors.

A cream sweater makes an inviting backdrop for a burgundy scarf. Add brown trousers and a shoulder bag, and a familiar neutral outfit takes on a distinctly autumn mood.

Let the scarf sit loosely around your neck rather than hiding the knit completely. Sunglasses and small gold-tone hoops finish the look without competing with the color contrast.

A burgundy blazer with trousers in the same color family creates a long, polished line. A simple top underneath keeps the combination calm, whether you're heading to the office or meeting someone for coffee.

The shades don't need to match perfectly. Keep the fit comfortable through the shoulders and waist, and choose shoes that suit your day. Beige dress pants are a lighter alternative if you want to break up the burgundy rather than wear it head to toe.

Layer a burgundy coat over a chocolate knit dress for a warm, softly textured fall outfit. The coat frames the darker dress, while knee-high boots keep the silhouette balanced for cooler days.

A belt can define the waist if you like a little more shape. Keep jewelry delicate and check the dress length with your own boots—the editorial is a starting point, not a fixed formula.

For an easy weekend combination, pair blue wide-leg jeans with a burgundy camisole and a soft cream cardigan. Denim relaxes the richer shade, while the light knit adds a gentle contrast.

Finish with a burgundy handbag or shoes if you want to repeat the color. Choose a jean length that works with your footwear and a cardigan you can comfortably slip on and off as the day warms up.
