Zara Has Spoken: These 7 Trending Colours Are the Key to Looking Expensive This Winter
I've browsed all the new-in Zara trends that have arrived for winter 2025 to bring you a ready-made wish list. Scroll down to see.


As a fashion editor, if there's one thing I can always rely on, it's Zara being the first on the high street to bring us the new-season trends. From the popular wool bomber jacket to its sumptuous suede bags, Zara has recently become a one-stop shop for statement silhouettes and expensive-looking hues, ready to transition your autumn capsule wardrobe to one which is winter-ready.

With the cold weather on its way, and wearing layers in London becoming a necessity rather than a styling trick, luxe colours are the simplest way to elevate your capsule wardrobe.
In other words, updating your collection with a few carefully selected pieces in certain shades can help freshen it up and make it look more curated. This is where Zara colour trends can really help for winter 2025. From soft suede brown loafers to playful primrose-pink knits, these pieces are not only gloriously well-priced but are right on the money with the biggest colour trends of autumn/winter 2025.
If you want to create colour-drenched looks which feel timelessly elevated, Zara’s chocolate-brown offering might be right up your street. After a pop of brightness to bring vibrance and grab visual interest? The red pieces might be exactly what your capsule wardrobe needs. Personally, I think the brand's olive and burgundy selection feels most directional, embodying winter's moody undertone in a wearable way that still packs presence.
Without further ado, I’ve rounded up the seven Zara colour trends worth investing in this season. Keep scrolling to discover the shades your wardrobe could benefit from.
7 Expensive-Looking Zara Colour Trends for Winter 2025
1. Chocolate Brown
Style Notes: From cool faux-suede funnel-neck bombers to breezy poplin shirts, dark chocolate brown is a key colour trend coming through in Zara’s winter 2025 collection, and for good reason. With a warm, welcoming undertone and inherently luxurious feel, chocolate brown offers a chic alternative to black, but one which is just as versatile and timeless.

2. Roaring Red
Style Notes: Bright, bold and surprisingly wearable, 2025 has undeniably been the year of red. From trendy thong flip-flops to accessories galore, this year, fashion people and celebrities have all been seeing red when it comes to their wardrobes. With Zara offering this vibrant hue in everything from faux-suede trench coats to cosy knits, it's obvious this colour trend shows no signs of slowing down just yet.
Shop the Trend:
Everyone from Sienna Miller to Sarah Jessica Parker has been wearing peep-toe heels.
3. Bold Burgundy
Style Notes: A close relative of the ever-popular aforementioned red colour trend, burgundy is fast becoming the hue to wear in winter 2025. The ultra-luxe colour oozes sophistication at every turn, especially when crafted in vinyl finishes and with delicate buckle details.
Shop the Trend:
The vinyl finish makes this cropped trench feel bang on-trend in 2025.
This whole look is so Chloé-coded.
4. Timeless Taupe
Style Notes: What's not to love about taupe? Timeless, elegant and undeniably chic, it's a modern colour trend that will never fail to refine a 'fit. In winter 2025, the chicest taupe shades on offer are a little darker and almost grainy in texture, a bit like an oatmeal, rather than a flat, pale beige.

5. Primrose Pink
Style Notes: Pretty pastel hues have been gaining popularity for some time, but nothing has the fashion set falling quite like pastel pink. Light and breezy in essence, the colour adds a soft romance to any ensemble.
Shop the Trend:
Pair with a loose blazer and square-toe boots for a polished look.
6. Whiskey Brown
Style Notes: When I think of autumn, earthy brown hues instantly come to mind. From golden whiskey shades to creamy caramel hues, there's no shortage of this elevated colour in Zara's winter 2025 drop.

7. Olive
Style Notes: In a warm, earthy shade, dark olive green is one of the easiest colour trends to tap into, regardless of your aesthetic. Adding a luxe feel to the simplest of ensembles, in my professional opinion, Zaras' plethora of moody suede bombers and heeled boots in this mossy green finish is some of the best in the business.
