If you thought spring dressing was all about breezy dresses and floral embellishments, think again. This season, an unexpected new trend is cutting through the usual light layers and pastel hues, making a compelling case for a moodier, more tailored approach to dressing this season. Suddenly everywhere, fashion people turning their backs to dresses and styling burgundy tailoring right now.
Leading the charge, Elsa Hosk stepped out in Paris this week, swapping airy florals for a deep merlot two-piece that has completely reframed my approach to spring style. Attending Saint Laurent's autumn/winter 2025 show, the model opted for an oversized burgundy suit from the French brand, which she styled with a crisp white shirt, a glossy tan tie, thick bangles, and oversized sunglasses.
Hosk wasn’t alone in embracing a rich, wine-toned suit. Over the course of Paris Fashion Week, I spotted the burgundy two-piece cropping up again and again among stylish show-goers. Often paired with classic white layers—whether a tailored shirt like Hosk’s or a simple tee—this deep red suiting also found harmony with complementary tones, from buttery caramel browns to inky blacks.
Though a burgundy suit won't be the first thing that comes to mind when planning a spring wardrobe, its full-coverage silhouette is surprisingly practical for the season’s unpredictable temperatures, while its rich tone brings a welcome depth to spring’s traditionally light and airy palette.
While we've seen grey suits take off over the past few months, this deeper shade feels in harmony with the season's growing preference for bolder, sharper styling and the moodier palette that's crept in after months of winter styling. Read on to discover our edit of the best best burgundy tailoring below.
