The heritage brand favoured by Pippa Middleton has embraced this season’s love affair with the burgundy hue.
The shade, which appeared on the catwalk as a spectrum from russet to oxblood and was included in collections ranging from Chloe to McQueen and Nina Ricci, inspired Aspinal of London to create a burgundy capsule collection for AW15.
“Our rich, deep burgundy red grounds our colourful collection and we are excited to launch it in a range of classic Aspinal styles. This sophisticated shade goes with just about every other colour like grey, camel, black and forest green and has a lot of attitude,” says Aspinal of London.
Available in burgundy saffiano are classic designs including the Marylebone tote and the smaller Marylebone Tech tote, the unisex Brook St holdall and a range of coordinating accessories including the luggage tags, hipflasks and belts one has come to expect of this quintessentially English brand. A newcomer is the delightfully playful Letterbox saddlebag.
Those looking to take the trend to a super luxe level might opt for the Marylebone Tote in burgundy python.
You’ll also see a nod to burgundy in Aspinal’s être cécile collaboration, juxtaposing their traditional styling with the quirky aesthetic of être cécile and resulting in vibrant plaids of fuchsia, chartreuse yellow and of course, burgundy.
And why not compliment the claret-toned leather with Aspinal’s feather-light, pure silk ‘Owl in the City’ scarf with its chic Autumnal design in champagne pink and deer brown or maybe with the Pall Mall silk pocket square in cream, silver and champagne twill. And perhaps a seasonal glass of port.
The burgundy collection is available now from Aspinal of London.
