All our burgundy dresses

Burgundy was a popular color in ancient Rome, which may not be so surprising. The color is associated with strength and power, luxury and wealth, and of course, with love and passion. At that time, burgundy was often worn by royalty and members of the clergy. Today, burgundy is a color for everyone and lots of Gudrunistas adore our burgundy dresses. There’s something lovely about putting on a burgundy dress. It feels bold and intense, yet simultaneously elegant and sophisticated. We agree with the ancient Romans: there’s something special about burgundy.

Our burgundy dresses come in lots of beautiful shades, from the deepest burgundy – like the peel of a perfectly ripe grape – to brighter, more cheerful tones. Some of our burgundy dresses are solid-colored, some have playful patterns like dots and stripes, and some have decorative details like puff sleeves, lace insets, and covered buttons. No matter the shade, a burgundy dress is easy to pair with other colors, and that’s clear to see among these dresses. Floral burgundy dresses with forest green foliage and rich, yellow flowers, or burgundy dresses with embroidery in shades of blue and orange. This is a great approach to have when pairing your new burgundy dress with another garment. For weekday wear, try a pair of olive green leggings, for lunch with friends you can add a colorful cardigan, and for the party, pop on a shawl with a meandering pattern in turquoise, orange and blue. If you’re in the mood for an all-out burgundy day, then pair your dress with a tunic, a turtleneck, a jacket, and shoes – all in different shades of burgundy. Layer upon layer, shade upon shade!

When it comes to season and feel, the material we choose for our burgundy dresses makes a big difference. A knit burgundy dress is a wonderful choice in fall, when the leaves outside the window have taken on the same hue as your dress. At Gudrun’s, we love clothing made in natural materials that last year after year, without pilling or losing their shape. That’s why our knit dresses are made in wool, organic cotton and more. For wonderful wintry parties, a burgundy dress in velour is an excellent choice. Velour is a magical material. Shimmery and festive, it’s a wonderfully comfortable, cozy material to wear. You can go straight from the party to your favorite armchair to curl up with a good book. On a spring day, as nature comes to life and the trees begin to bud, a three-quarter-sleeve burgundy dress is marvelous. Comfy, wearable, and ideal for the quick pace of spring. As new freckles come to light with the arrival of the summer sunshine, go with a sleeveless jersey dress.

All of our burgundy dresses – like all of our other beautiful garments – were designed to inspire you. They should be easy to wear, easy to pair, and easy to pick. And one more thing – they should be perfect for colorful and unique Gudrunistas!
