The unexpected colour to pair with red this season - it's guaranteed to make every outfit feel autumn-ready

Red and green colour trend 2026.

At the start of this year, I made a vow to wear more colour, and ever since, I've been on the lookout for easy, reliable colour combinations that are guaranteed to work. Lately, my social media feed has been filled with stylists sharing standout pairings, but one in particular keeps catching my eye - green and red.

Olive green is already set to be one of the key autumn/winter fashion colour trends for 2026. The earthy shade works with a range of autumn outfit ideas, but if you've ever wondered how to make it more impactful, you can't go wrong by pairing it with vibrant red. Tomato and cherry shades are both set to have a moment in the fashion spotlight, and the warmth of red and the muted qualities of olive hues work really well together.
