Intense without being bright, deep without being austere, burgundy is emerging as one of the essential colours of Autumn-Winter 2026. Warmer than black and more distinctive than traditional neutrals, it transitions across styles and occasions with natural elegance.
This season, MAX&MOI explores this garnet shade through its signature materials: cashmere, leather, silk and Furever faux fur. From head-to-toe looks to combinations with beige or denim, discover how to wear burgundy in our Autumn-Winter 2026 collection and create silhouettes that play with contrasts, textures and proportions.
Head-to-toe burgundy
a confident look
Worn from head to toe, burgundy creates a monochrome silhouette with a strong character. But to avoid uniformity, everything lies in the play of materials and volumes.
A generous knitwear sweater paired with fitted leather trousers, a structured jacket over a fluid silhouette: the textures complement one another and give the colour depth. The shades vary subtly according to the materials, creating a natural tonal palette that enriches the head-to-toe look without disrupting its harmony.
At MAX&MOI, monochrome is built in this way, through the balance between softness and structure, fluidity and character.
A monochrome look also embraced by @elinamandine in our first MAX&MOI Notebook, in Milan, where she pairs a burgundy silk shirt with a matching fluid silk and lace skirt. Another interpretation of the head-to-toe look, full of lightness and femininity.
Burgundy and beige
the art of contrast
Beige and burgundy form a combination that enhances the winter palette. Beige softens the depth of burgundy, bringing light and softness to the silhouette, while burgundy asserts its character. Together, they create an effortlessly sophisticated look that is both refined and contemporary.
Soft, fluid materials, such as silk or double-faced wool, enhance this elegance while inviting the play of layering. The secret lies in the balance of proportions: allowing light tones to illuminate the silhouette without diminishing the presence of burgundy.
A combination that naturally echoes our Beige Maxxing selection, where shades of ecru, sand and hazelnut reveal the full richness of the materials.
Burgundy and denim
casual elegance
To give burgundy a more spontaneous look, denim is an ideal ally. Its casual character contrasts with the sophistication of this colour, making it easy to wear every day without losing any of its elegance.
Blue jeans paired with a burgundy cashmere sweater, a fluid shirt tucked into denim or a garnet knitwear and suede jacket worn with a more relaxed outfit: these combinations play with styles and materials.
With the BELLE jeans and their monogram jacquard, MAX&MOI signature denim, this contrast takes on a new dimension. A way to reinterpret the codes of casual wear for a more personal look.
The details that define a silhouette
Sometimes, a simple touch of burgundy is enough to transform an outfit. A pair of diamond-patterned socks, a raccoon and wool knit balaclava or a cashmere bandana bring an unexpected note to the silhouette.

The Maison’s Furever faux fur adds a more tactile dimension, playing with volumes and contrasts. So many interpretations of the same colour, allowing different silhouettes to be created with a refined simplicity that nothing disturbs.
Burgundy through the materials
Sometimes, a simple touch of burgundy is enough to transform an outfit. A pair of diamond-patterned socks, a raccoon and wool knit balaclava or a cashmere bandana bring an unexpected note to the silhouette.

Worn in small touches, burgundy becomes a style detail in its own right. A freer and more playful way to make the trend your own, right down to everyday accessories.
I wanted to bring that depth and intensity that only burgundy can offer. It’s a colour that enriches the palette, strengthens the collection’s identity and enhances the elegance of each silhouette.
