Colour Trend: Grape

For all you fellow red wine fanatics out there, you're in luck. You don't have to be too worried about spilling that dangerously delicious concoction down your dress - deep purple is set to be the colour of the season.  With the colour purple having taken centre stage as a book and then a play, brace yourselves because the colour trend is about to take the fashion world by storm. 

Grape is a bold blend of both intense blue and cool red and (helpfully!) compliments every skin tone. Inciting us to resist our urge to wear black head-to-toe every day this is the perfect alternative. We love the variety of colours and shades from dark grape to saturated burgundy which took the stage this LFW.

 

And whether you opt for a wine dipped collar, a burgundy trench or a berry beanie, you pretty much can't go wrong with this.

 

If you're still not convinced about the colour, try a scarf or even socks for just a hint of what's definitely one of the largest overriding looks this season. We're basically planning on wearing it in every way possible.

 

We’ve compiled a few of our favourites so far (we’re sure they’ll be plenty more to follow soon!)
