Article content Distinct trends are a bit of a fallacy these days, as things come in and out of favour almost as quickly as an influencer can create a new TikTok for it. But this fall, there are a few colours that seem to be making big, splashy waves. We explore five pieces in the top hues of the season: If you only choose one colour to go big on this fall, make it burgundy — or merlot, cabernet.

Whatever you call it, or whichever shade you opt for, maroon is rich, cozy and oh so perfect for the cooler months. Layer a few pieces for a modern look, or update your wardrobe with this loose mock-neck turtleneck sweater. Finish with gold accessories to keep the effect sophisticated and elegant.

Baby pink? For fall? Indeed — it’s an unexpected shade more often seen in the spring, but that’s precisely why it feels so interesting this season. From Alaïa to JW Anderson to Miu Miu, the fall runways really took a page out of classical ballet codes. Dip a toe into the trend with this gold-tone and blush watch, or, if you’re really tickled pink, go for a dress or even trousers in the tutu-inspired hue.

Dark grey is more what we’re used to when it comes to autumnal hues, and this cutaway blazer is a sharp, smart option for the season. We especially love its slightly fitted shape — a refreshing alternative to the oversized, mannish versions we’ve seen over the past few years. Team with the co-ordinating trousers, or pair with black pants or even denim for a cool mix-and-ma.
