Kate Middleton has revived the winter color trend associated with wealth that many of us had overlooked.

      Burgundy may seem like a winter essential, yet it has been off the radar for some time. After reaching its peak in early autumn, this rich red hue receded, overshadowed by cooler shades such as crisp whites, slate greys, and pastel pinks that have taken over the season. However, Catherine, Princess of Wales, has just reminded us of the unique charm that a deep shade of burgundy brings to winter. Reviving this previously overlooked color, Kate donned a burgundy jacket-and-trouser ensemble, layered with a matching blouse for a polished and cohesive look. To elevate the outfit further, she updated the traditional color combination with luxurious chocolate-brown accessories—a smart styling choice that added a new layer of richness and elegance to her appearance.

      Carrying DeMellier's The Small Hudson (£415), Kate completed her look with pointed-toe court shoes in the same earthy brown tone. The ensemble appeared thoughtful yet effortless, a hallmark of her best outfits. By combining two deep neutrals, the Princess created a look that felt opulent rather than weighty. Arguably, this is the most stylish way to wear burgundy in 2026. Continue reading to shop the burgundy-and-brown color trend below.
