This season's unexpected colour combo [1] award goes to — drumroll, please — pink and burgundy. The similarly hued palettes are just striking enough when worn together to ensure you'll turn heads everywhere you go, but the play between the lighter pink and darker burgundy provides quite the grounding contrast. While seasons past might have called for colour combinations that seemed more jarring, like fuchsia and red, yellow and neon green, or purple and turquoise, a switch to pink and burgundy brings with it an air of more sophistication than we're used to when it comes to colour.
Ahead, find nine ways we're wearing burgundy and pink this season and looks we are shopping for this Autumn [2].
Go for a look that's equal parts flowy and tailored by choosing a dress with airy volume topped with a more sophistocated blazer to finish it off.
With a slim-fit crewneck sweater and silk midi skirt, you're ready for whatever the day (and night!) might throw at you.
Totally commit to the colour combo by opting for a look that's printed with the duo from head to toe.
Create more of a contrast with your colours by wearing a dress in the darkest shade of burgundy, topped with a more fluorescent shade of pink on top.
If you are more colour-averse but want to try your hand, pair a muted tone of burgundy with a paler pink for an understated look.
If your look is particularly pink, ground it a little with a tailored coat in a deep shade of burgundy.
Layer up with a pink shirtdress and side-slit burgundy skirt on top.
While your pale pink blazer might be the perfect pairing with your favourite blue jeans, we love it equally when styled with a burgundy ankle-length skirt.
This Fall, try the colour combo with a simple turtleneck-and-trousers outfit, channelling the likes of Jackie Kennedy's iconic style.
