Kate Middleton Just Brought Back the Wealth-Whispering Winter Colour Trend We'd All Forgotten About

Sure, burgundy may feel like a winter staple, but in truth, it’s been absent from the spotlight for months. After peaking in early autumn, the rich red shade faded into the background, eclipsed by frostier hues—crisp whites, slate greys and pastel pinks have dominated the season instead. But Catherine, Princess of Wales, has just reminded me why none of them quite compares to the wintry allure of a deep wash of burgundy.

Breathing fresh life into the once-forgotten shade, Kate stepped out in a burgundy jacket-and-trouser set, layered with a tonal blouse for a refined, streamlined finish. Elevating the look further, she modernised the classic colour pairing with rich chocolate-brown accessories—a clever styling move that lent the outfit a new level of depth and decadence.

Kate Middleton walks next to Prince William wearing a burgundy suit with a brown bag and shoes.

Carrying DeMellier’s The Small Hudson (£415), Kate completed the look with pointed-toe court shoes in the same earthy brown hue. The ensemble felt considered yet easy, and Kate’s best outfits often do.

By pairing two deep neutrals, the Princess ensured the look felt rich rather than heavy. Perhaps the chicest way to wear burgundy in 2026, scroll on to shop the burgundy-and-brown colour combination below.
