Wine-colored dress - will you choose light or tart?

Color features
"Wine" is the most popular name for the color, which is also called "burgundy" and "burgundy". This noble shade is obtained by mixing red and brown. It is not accidentally named after exquisite grape varieties - this is the color that red grapes take during fermentation.

Wine color in clothes became widespread at the end of the 19th century, and since then interest in it either fades away or intensifies again. Once every few years, burgundy has consistently become the main trend of the next fashion season.


The advantage of the wine color is that it is perfect for clothes of a wide variety of styles. A spectacular dress for an evening out, a spacious sweater for a walk, a tracksuit for going to the gym - burgundy things will always be in place.



Who is it suitable for?
The good thing about wine color is that it has few restrictions on the type of appearance. The stereotype that only bright brunettes can wear burgundy clothes has long been a thing of the past. Wine color does not look very good on girls with yellowish or olive skin, but if you try very hard, with the help of modern cosmetics, you can give your skin a healthy color and blush and feel free to wear things of this color.

The darker your skin, the more intense the wine you can choose from. Pale-skinned girls should be more careful with this color: do not wear this color from head to toe and stop at lighter shades.



Shades
Wine is one of the many shades of red that exist.The color palette is close to wine chestnut, cardinal, terracotta, sangria, carmine, maroon and falun red. These shades are quite easy to confuse with each other, so they are often called simply "burgundy".




Wine is located in the neighborhood with both warm and cold shades, so the owner of any type of appearance will be able to choose a suitable variety of burgundy color for herself. At the same time, both light and dark shades of the wine color spectrum look equally good on “winter” and “summer” girls.

What to wear with
Wine color has a wide range of compatibility. Wine clothes can be combined with clothes and accessories in a wide variety of colors. A combination of burgundy with black or white is considered a classic, for example, a burgundy dress and black shoes.




In addition, wine is great in combination with beige, gray and pink. Light, pastel shades serve as the best background for a wine-colored dress.


Other successful combinations include wine + yellow, wine + blue, wine + green. At the same time, the color partners for the wine color must be chosen very carefully. For example, not all shades of the above colors will form a harmonious color pair with wine. Avoid bright, acidic shades and stick to a noble, understated color palette.



Length
A wine dress - smart or casual - is able to present any figure in a winning light. You just need to choose the right style. The length of the dress will undoubtedly play the most important role.

Long to the floor
Not every girl is capable of dressing in a long wine-colored dress up to the toes, because in this case she will certainly attract attention. If you love to catch the eyes of others, then this is exactly what you need.



A long dress, if you know how to wear it correctly, will hide all (real and invented!) Figure flaws. Girls with curvaceous shapes should choose those models that effectively emphasize the chest and "shape" the waist.

A beautiful neckline on top, a straight skirt without unnecessary embellishments on the hips - something like this should be the perfect wine dress for owners of seductive shapes.


Midi
A mid-length wine-colored dress is a versatile solution for almost all situations. It will be equally appropriate in the office, at the theater or at the opening day, as well as in a bar, club and any other place where you can go on Friday night after a busy work week.
Wine loves expensive, noble fabrics, so whenever possible, choose dresses from quality materials. For cold winter days, models made of wool or cashmere are suitable. For more formal occasions, take a look at velvet and silk dresses.


Midi dresses look good on a wide variety of figures, so fans of wine color can not be afraid to make the wrong choice. A modern woman knows the recommendations regarding her body type - follow them when buying a medium-length wine dress, and the result will delight not only you.

A short
A short dress is not necessarily an option for dancing or cocktails, because now there is a huge selection of mini models that are suitable for both everyday life and leisure.


Wine is an incredibly refined and noble color; it itself is the main decoration of your dress. Therefore, you should not get too carried away with decor - neckline, guipure, peplum - all together it will look too defiant. One spectacular decoration is enough for a short wine-colored dress of a simple cut with the same peplum - an elegant and laconic solution for a variety of situations.



Shoes
Shoes for a wine dress should be selected based on what effect you want to achieve. For a brighter, more solemn look, shoes to match or differ in several shades - lilac, maroon or crimson - are suitable.


For a discreet look, go for a versatile black or beige shoe. Beige shoes are simply an irreplaceable thing, and if these are not yet in your wardrobe, you should definitely purchase them. A wine-colored dress and beige shoes will be just a win-win combination.



As for the style of shoes, here you need to be guided by only one rule: the more "complex" dress, the simpler the model you need to choose shoes, and vice versa.
Accessories
As we said above, wine color is very self-sufficient. A wine dress will look impressive even without additional decorations. However, there are situations when you need to appear in all its splendor, and you cannot do without "reinforcement" in the form of accessories. In this case, you will have to take care of at least a suitable handbag. It must be chosen according to the same rules as when choosing shoes: it can be the same light as the dress or a neutral shade, for example, beige or black.



Wine is a noble color and it requires the same noble decorations.



Gold earrings and other jewelry made of this metal will be a great addition to an elegant wine-colored dress.


Makeup
In order for a girl in a wine dress to look truly luxurious, it is imperative to complement the image with suitable makeup. Since the wine color itself is quite saturated, bright cosmetics should be abandoned.
Natural makeup will be the right decision. You should not pay excessive attention to the eyes, it is better to work well on the skin, eliminating all imperfections and giving the skin a fresh and healthy look. If we are talking about a ceremonial exit or just a festive event, accentuate your lips by choosing a lipstick of a wine shade or a shade close to it.



Wine color ... it's like an expensive wine - playful, noble, aged. Very nice!
