From Raf Simons’ collections at Calvin Klein to the glossy runways of Saint Laurent, no brand can resist the allure of cowboy hats, fringed boots, boleros, and Wild Westworld-worthy button-up shirts.
I used to be extremely averse to cowboy boots. Or fringe. Or anything that made me look remotely like Woody from Toy Story. Now, I find myself gravitating towards fringe, denim on denim, and suede boots—my personal take on the western trend.
Luckily, you don’t have to interpret the trend so literally. Adding a touch of fringe to a handbag, or to your boots, is an easy way to nod at the trend without abandoning your sense of personal style.
If you need some feel-good inspiration, listen to Paula sing about cowboys.
