What Colour Jackets And Coats to Wear with Burgundy Dress

The best jacket colours to wear with a burgundy dress are navy, grey and beige. Burgundy adds depth to navy without shouting; common in autumn tailoring. Khaki, camel, black and tan also work. Be careful with light blue: a denim jacket is more casual than a dress, so the pairing only works in a deliberately mixed outfit. Colour-wise it works: burgundy and light blue can work together if a neutral anchors the outfit.
