Fall 2026 Color Trends: Khaki, Toffee and Ripe Cherry
Our take on the season: women are moving away from black and gray toward warm, layered shades. Here is how they look on REPULO’S designs.
- Khaki. A calm olive shade for everyday outerwear.
- Toffee. A warm caramel brown that replaces classic beige.
- Ripe cherry. A deep, dark red for evenings and the holidays.
All three are warm tones, so they work together in one outfit.
Why we are betting on these three colors
We don’t rewrite runway reports. We look at what our customers actually ask us for, in messages and on our online store.
This fall, requests for a khaki or toffee trench coat clearly outpace black. For evening dresses, a dark cherry red stands out: women pick it for holiday parties, birthdays and New Year’s Eve instead of the usual bright red or black.
That matches the mood of the fall/winter 2026/2027 season, full of browns, muted greens and deep reds. What matters more to us is that these colors are easy to wear in real life: in the rain, at the office and out at night.
Khaki: calm, with character

Why khaki is the color of this fall
Khaki is as practical as black without weighing a look down. Rain marks show less, and the olive base works with jeans as easily as with a midi dress. For unpredictable fall weather, it is one of the easiest coat colors to live in.
On the Amber trench coat, khaki never looks military thanks to the maxi length, the pleated back and the gold buttons. For shoes and accessories, see our guide: what to wear with a khaki trench coat.
What color is toffee, and who does it suit?
Toffee is a caramel brown, deeper than beige and lighter than chocolate. It brightens the face, so it flatters most skin tones, especially warm ones.
We see the toffee trench chosen by women who find beige too pale and brown too dark. With the gold buttons on Amber it looks polished, by day or thrown over an evening dress.
Khaki or toffee: how to choose
| Khaki | Toffee | |
|---|---|---|
| Mood | calm, urban | warm, dressy |
| Weather | rain, drizzle, everyday | dry fall days, evening |
| Underneath | chocolate, cream, cherry | cream, cherry, black |
| Metal | gold | gold |
Amber mini dress
Pleats, wide slit sleeves, a belt at the waist or on the hips.
Lea midi dress
Satin, a deep V neckline, waist draping and a front slit.
Ripe cherry: the season’s evening color
Ripe cherry is a deep red with a hint of wine. It looks richer than bright red and softer than black, which is why this fall a cherry dress keeps coming up for holiday parties, birthdays and New Year’s Eve.
Amber is for anyone who wants a bold silhouette: the pleats hold their shape and the belt changes the proportions. Lea is the classic choice: softly shining satin and a midi length with a slit, made for dinner or the theater.
How to wear all three fall colors in one outfit
| Pairing | Where to wear it |
|---|---|
| Khaki trench + chocolate turtleneck + cherry lipstick | office, city |
| Toffee trench + cream sweater + gold jewelry | weekend, meetings |
The rule is simple: cherry is always the lead, and khaki or toffee frame it with warmth. Keep black for small details, like a bag or sunglasses.
