The fashion world is painting the town red this summer – but not the cherry red we fell for last year. 2025 is shifting towards a rich, bold hue of blood ox red/burgundy that’s both timeless and bold. This deep, luxurious shade is having a major moment, and here’s why every Aussie woman needs to embrace it.
Why Burgundy Works for Everyone Unlike fleeting trend colours, burgundy is universally flattering across all skin tones. Whether you’re rocking a sun-kissed glow or prefer your natural complexion, this rich hue adds instant sophistication to any look. Think head-to-toe monochromatic looks, luxe layers, and the perfect punch of colour to add to your wardrobe staples.
How to Style It This Season
- Start small with burgundy accessories – a structured handbag or statement earrings
- Graduate to a burgundy midi dress for brunch dates or work presentations
- Go full monochrome with burgundy trousers paired with a lighter burgundy blouse
- Layer different shades of burgundy for a tonal look that screams effortless chic
Why we love it- This trend perfectly captures our love for earthy, natural tones while adding that touch of drama we’ve been craving. It’s sophisticated enough for Melbourne’s fashion-forward streets yet relaxed enough for Sydney’s beachside cafes.
