Autumn 2026 fashion trends highlight red accents and warm tones

Fashion and beauty trends for autumn 2026 are highlighting the use of bold red accents and warm tones.

At the premiere of the film 'Verity' in New York, actress Dakota Johnson showcased a minimalist ivory Calvin Klein ensemble paired with deep cherry-toned lipstick. Her look emphasized a high-contrast aesthetic, using a satin-finish red lip to complement soft brown eyeshadow and natural brows.

In retail, Zara is leaning into the trend with a new collection of red accessories. The brand has released several handbag models priced under 25 euros, including wine-red shoulder bags, structured geometric designs for professional settings, and burgundy mini bags with fringe details. These items aim to incorporate the season's prominent red and chocolate tones into everyday outfits.
