For the new year, seems everyone needs a merlot burgundy colored ruffle dress. This is a great in between black and neutral color that is perfect for the holidays and into the winter New Year. Don’t want to wear black and red is too bright? Maroon or Burgundy is just right. My favorite red ish options are from Ulla Johnson, Giambattista Valli, Sincerely Jules, Nanette Lepore, Zimmermann, and Iro.
