Burgundy Blues
Some color combinations need a little convincing. Burgundy and blue somehow look like they have always belonged together.
Burgundy brings richness and depth, while blue keeps the look from becoming too dark or serious. In fact, recent Fall 2026 coverage has already named it one of the season’s standout pairings.
The easiest way to try it is with pieces you may already own: a burgundy knit with denim, a powder-blue blouse with dark cherry trousers, or a navy dress finished with burgundy shoes. For something more editorial, we love the contrast of a fluid powder-blue satin skirt against a fitted wine-colored top.
The shades don’t need to match perfectly. Powder blue feels soft and unexpected, denim makes the pairing casual, and cobalt gives burgundy a bolder, more graphic energy. Keep the accessories simple—silver jewelry, a dark bag, or cherry-colored shoes are plenty.
Think of burgundy as the bass line and blue as the unexpected high note. Different moods, one very good outfit.
