At last night's Burberry Spring/Summer 26 runway show, Joanna Lumley confirmed that dark red is the outerwear colour to buy this season. Sitting in the front row with Absolutely Fabulous co-star Jennifer Saunders, she wore a wine-red trench, demonstrating that the best trench coats aren't necessarily neutral.
As one of the best British brands, Burberry has always set the standard when it comes to trench coats, and they certainly have paved the way for the current coat trends of 2025. Neutral classic trench coat hues will always have a place, but the autumn/winter fashion colour trends 2025 that we've spotted are all about embracing rich, earthy tones just like Lumley's trench.
