The Elegant Color Every Celeb Will Be Wearing in 2024
The spring 2024 runway collections were stocked full of trends, from sophisticated takes on sheer to dramatically overstuffed handbags, but out of all of them, none made quite as impactful of a splash as oxblood (otherwise known as black cherry, merlot, or burgundy), the shade of red on every fashion person's lips (and in their closets) right now. Found at Hermès, Gucci, Valentino, Versace, Tom Ford, and then some, the elegant yet moody hue is no doubt campaigning to be the color of the year.
Helping out on the campaign trail are celebs, who've come out in droves to support the rise of oxblood, wearing it on red carpets, to fashion shows, and on the streets of cities like New York and London. And since the spring collections haven't even arrived in stores yet, I can only imagine that the best A-list burgundy looks are still to come. Scroll down to check out the chicest examples so far of celebs wearing 2024's color of the year.

Anything and everything velvet right now has me in my feels.
I own this bag in the brown Fondant shade, but after seeing my co-worker Anna Laplaca buy the Barolo color, I might need to start saving up for another.
