Shades
The burgundy color, as one of the varieties of red, has several shades. They are called differently. For example, in France, it is customary to define all shades of burgundy as "the color of bovine blood", and in English there is a capacious definition - maroon. But in a fashionable environment, varieties of dark red flowers are called wines. The determination of the hue is influenced by the concentration of red, blue or brown pigment.

The combination of burgundy with gray is considered ideal. It is worth noting that light shades of gray will look the most advantageous. This tandem creates a gentle, calm and very romantic image that will suit any girl. The proportion of colors in combination can be varied. The abundance of gray combined with burgundy accents will be perceived as warmer and more cozy. If a wine tone prevails in the outfit, then the image will turn out to be elegant and restrained.

Despite the fact that the classic combination of black and burgundy is very popular in fashion lines, you should be careful with it. Such a color duet can depersonalize your image, depriving it of expressiveness. More saturated shades of burgundy bordering on purple will help to avoid this. Another secret of combining wine tones with black is an additional accessory of the third color. Gold or silver details are a great option.

Combinations of burgundy color with contrasting shades will create bright, catchy and certainly stylish images. So, burgundy in tandem with blue will look advantageous. Burgundy will accentuate the calmness of blue shades, and they, in turn, set off the saturation and warmth of the wine color. The brighter the blue color in the outfit, the stronger the contrast will be, which means, the more stylish and unusual the combination will turn out.

Nevertheless, you should carefully consider the combination of burgundy with a blue tint. This combination will make the blue tones dusty and expressionless. The turquoise color, which is actual this season, goes well with dark wine tones. A tandem of delicate turquoise with brown color, in which there is more brown subtone than red, will look the most advantageous.

- A flowing dress made of dark burgundy silk underlines the solemnity of the image. V-neck and light flowing pleats give the outfit a unique femininity and charm. To emphasize the luxury and chic of the dress, black accessories are used: a clutch bag and a massive necklace.

A fluffy bell skirt relieves the outfit from excessive severity. The same purpose is served by a necklace interspersed with green, burgundy, purple. So that the image does not turn out to be flashy or too daring, the accessories are very restrained - a classic black bag and open, romantic sandals with a small heel to match.
