Color features
“Wine” is the most popular name for the color, which is also called “Bordeaux” and “Burgundy”. This noble shade is obtained by mixing red and brown colors. It is no coincidence that it was named after exquisite grape varieties - this is the color that red grapes take in the process of fermentation.

The wine color in clothes became very widespread at the end of the 19th century, and since then interest in it has been dying away, now increasing again. Every few years, Bordeaux stably becomes the main trend of the next fashion season.


The advantage of wine color is that it is perfect for clothes of various 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 for?
Wine color is good in 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. The wine color does not look very good on girls with yellow or olive skin, but if you try very hard with the help of modern cosmetics, you can give your face skin a healthy color and blush and safely wear clothes of this color.

The darker your skin, the more saturated the shades of wine color you can choose. Pale-skinned girls should use this color more carefully: do not put on clothes of this color from head to toe and stop at lighter shades.



Shades
Wine is one of the shades of red, of which there are a great many.In the color palette close to the wine are chestnut, cardinal, terracotta, sangria, carmine, maroon and Falun red. These shades are quite easy to confuse with each other, so often they are all called simply “burgundy”.




Wine is located next to both warm and cold shades, so the owner of any type of appearance can choose for herself a suitable variety of burgundy color. 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
Wine color has wide possibilities of compatibility. Wine clothes can be combined with clothes and accessories of various colors. A combination of burgundy with black or white, for example, a burgundy dress and black shoes, is considered classic.




In addition, wine perfectly manifests itself in combination with beige, gray and pink. Light, pastel shades serve as the best backdrop for a wine-colored dress.


Other successful combinations include wine + yellow, wine + blue, wine + green. In this case, the partner colors for the wine color must be chosen very carefully. For example, not all shades of the above colors will make a harmonious color pair with wine. Give up bright, acidic shades and adhere to a noble, restrained color palette.



Length
A wine dress - elegant or casual - can present any figure in a winning light. You just need to choose the right style. Undoubtedly, the length of the dress will play the most important role.

Long to the floor
Not every girl is able to put on a long, to five-foot wine-colored dress, because in this case she will surely attract attention. If you like to attract the views 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 imagined!) Figure flaws. Girls with curvaceous forms should choose those models that effectively emphasize the chest and “form” the waist.

A beautiful neckline from above, a straight skirt without unnecessary adornments on the hips - something like this should be an ideal wine dress for owners of seductive shapes.


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


Midi dresses look good on a variety of shapes, so fans of wine color may not be afraid to make the wrong choice. A modern woman knows the recommendations regarding her type of figure - be guided by them when buying a medium-length wine dress, and the result will please not only you.

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


Wine is an incredibly refined and noble color; it is itself the main decoration of your dress. Therefore, do not get too carried away with the decor - neckline, guipure, peplum - all together it will look too defiant. One spectacular decoration is enough for a short dress of wine color of a simple cut with the same peplum - an elegant and concise 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 more striking, solemn image, shoes matching the tone or differing in several shades - lilac, maroon or crimson are suitable.


For a restrained look, universal black or beige shoes are suitable. Beige shoes are simply an irreplaceable thing, and if there are none in your wardrobe, you must buy 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 “complicated” the dress, the more simple the model you need to choose shoes, and vice versa.
Accessories
As we said above, wine color is very self-sufficient. The wine dress will look spectacular even without additional jewelry. However, there are situations when you need to appear in all its splendor, and you can’t do without “reinforcement” in the form of accessories. In this case, you will have to take care of at least a suitable handbag. She must be chosen, guided by the same rules as when choosing shoes: she 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 necessary to supplement the image with suitable makeup. Since the wine color itself is quite saturated, bright cosmetics should be discarded.
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 the flaws and giving the face skin a fresh and healthy look. If we are talking about a solemn exit or just a festive event, emphasize the lips by choosing a lipstick of wine or a shade close to it.



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