The red and burgundy trend: understated elegance and absolute luxury

If you haven't yet succumbed to the call of red this season, it's time to dive into winter's must-have trend. From scarlet to burgundy, this hue is everywhere, from bags to leather dresses, proudly announcing this autumn's color.

Among all the shades of red, burgundy stands out as the favorite of "quiet luxury" enthusiasts. This term, which literally means "discreet luxury", is dominating trends this year, embodying subtle elegance.

But why Bordeaux? It's a deep hue, reminiscent of violet or brown, named after the famous wine from the Bordeaux region of France. The color embodies luxury, wealth and prestige, and is considered a symbol of refinement in the world of fashion. Since Roman times, it has been associated with opulence and influence.

Today, this hue, once perceived as conservative and austere, is making a comeback with understated elegance. Gone is the rigid burgundy, the trend is towards a modern, contemporary version, as evidenced by the fashion shows! On the catwalks for the Autumn-Winter 2023 collection, burgundy was a must-have. Brands such as Arligton, Anteprima and Balenciaga offered leather trench coats, while Benetton added a utilitarian touch with jumpsuits and cargo pants.
