Back in 2012 we knew it as oxblood, but we also refer to it as bordeaux- and it belongs to the same color family as maroon and cordovan. The magic color of the moment we're talking about now is burgundy, and it's front and center in display windows everywhere, with fashion critics referring to it as The New Blue.
