I agree, browns, and for depth at least one part black. I once de-fuchsia-ed some linen with a deep red and brown dye for a much nicer rich red.

If it were me, I'd overdye with brown--anything from a bright rust, to
a sepia, depending on how bright you want the burgundy to turn out.
If you want to sadden/desaturate the fuchsia a lot, add some green
into the mix.
