The Allure of Burgundy: The ‘It’ Color Firing Up Heart Evangelista’s OOTD At Paris Fashion Week Men 2025

By Marane A. Plaza

The color burgundy has definitely been considered the Fall 2024 neutral color. And these days, it has continued to be the ‘it’ shade be it in the hottest clothing racks, runway shows, or the current street style scene in fashion capitals.

Case in point: favorite fashion star Heart Evangelista is effortlessly incorporating the red wine hue into her current OOTDs while she’s attending various Paris Fashion Week Men’s Fall-Winter 2025 shows.

Pretty obvious that Heart is all about burgundy and fur this first fashion week season in Paris this 2025.

It totally makes sense for Heart though, as her headline-making hair color that welcomed us this 2025 called cherry violet totally goes well with burgundy. So what’s the allure of the color burgundy anyway?

Injecting burgundy into your daily style makes everything look even more expensive. Sensual, but not loud. Sophisticated in a subtle yet statement-making way. In short, it is effortlessly sexy, posh and cool all rolled into one shade.

For her look attending the Hermès Men’s Fall/Winter 2025 show, Heart went for layers, but with an unpredictable twist. While she went for a fierce leather bomber jacket on top of a dress, it’s note-worthy that she also actually layered in between the two pieces a burgundy cardigan sweater to have the sleeves pop off with the ‘it’ color. Nice styling trick.

While the OOTD goal was obviously to highlight the Hermès Kelly Elan Folie Black Ostrich Feather purse with its fringe details as the added texture of the overall look, it’s safe to say that the quiet elegance of the color burgundy makes it all come together.

The burgundy cardigan sweater is from Swedish label And Other Stories.

Just a little fashion trivia: the Hermès Kelly Elan Folie bag is a wearable art, crafted from supple black Chèvre leather and adorned with genuine ostrich feathers. It was introduced in 2000 as part of the Kelly Bag collection. The Kelly bag is iconic, first made famous in 1955 by actress turned princess Grace Kelly. The Kelly bag was originally called Sac à Dépêches, but Robert Dumas, the son-in-law of Hermès CEO Émile Hermès, redesigned the bag .in the 1930s. In 1977, Hermès officially renamed the bag the Kelly in honor of Princess Grace Kelly.


For added burgundy vibes into the look, Heart also rocked these Vivian boots from YSL.
