Mocha brown is one of the biggest autumn/winter fashion colour trends of 2025. Set to dominate our autumn outfit ideas this season, when it comes to building repeatable looks, you might not think that pairing it with bold tones of orange would work, but this punchy palette is seasonal perfection.

With heritage a major autumn/winter fashion trend 2025, earthy hues encompass more than just brown and khaki, and accenting these grounding tones with shots of orange or terracotta works surprisingly well.

Cat Deeley nailed the look with a sophisticated twist, pairing a paprika orange straight blouse + tie by ME+EM with the Reiss Solene wool-blend wide-leg suit trousers in a soft, neutral tan shade. Finishing off the look, Cat wore Reiss Carina suede high-heeled ankle boots, in a coordinating tan tone, rounding off her ultimate autumnal palette.

Get Cat Deeley's Red and Brown Look

There is so much to love about Cat’s look, the bold, but complementary palette delivers all the autumn feels. But beyond the chic tan and paprika orange colour combination, there’s also the impeccable use of tailoring, paired with flowy silk for a softer finish to the suiting elements of her look.

Cat's tie-neck blouse is simply sensational. Luxurious and sophisticated the flattering balloon sleeves and high neck add chic details to this wardrobe staple. Her choice of trousers fits and flatters her shape, with a front pleat design that elongates her frame.

Finishing off her look, Cat’s choice of suede ankle boots pulled everything together. Minimal in their design, it was all about the suede texture that brought in a warm, autumnal touch to the outfit. They might not be one of this year's main shoe trends, but they’re a timeless style that will never feel out of date, especially if they’re worn with such a timelessly classic outfit as Cat’s.
