Burgundy has been widely embraced across both interiors and fashion. Meanwhile, classic bright red has made its ascent as a key trend colour. The catwalk message is clear: red is here to stay. This is evident in the latest collections from Prada, Lanvin and Louis Vuitton.

Furthermore, red pairs exceptionally well with other vibrant hues, a combination that trend forecasting agency Future Snoops has also identified as a colour trend for autumn/winter 2028/29. Red is seen paired with its primary counterpart, blue, in colour-block combinations at brands including Givenchy and Laura Aparicio. According to Balenciaga and Celine, red also pairs well with the secondary colour purple.

Many designers are showcasing showstopping looks in their SS27 collections by utilizing head-to-toe red. Simultaneously, the shade lends itself well to a striking accent, such as adding a red scarf or handbag to an outfit.
