The sartorial space that hangs between Stephen’s Day and New Year's Eve can be a challenge. Too subdued for sequins yet alight with yuletide expectations, even the humblest social occasion begs the question: what do I wear? Luckily this season’s rich and full-bodied burgundy is having a glow-up. Sophisticated and deep yet always party-ready, this riff on red can hold its own, whatever and wherever it goes. Not only does it complement fun and quirky colour combinations like rose and sapphire but a host of low-key neutrals too.
