Cowboy style in modern clothing can be seen quite often. Many elements of this brutal and at the same time such a romantic image of a strong man in the role of a cowboy have smoothly passed into the wardrobe of modern ladies and gentlemen.

A couple of centuries ago, these comfortable clothes were very popular with shepherds and farmers, after which the country style (the so-called cowboy style) emerged, and later the western style. Characteristic elements of this fashion trend are special boots, jeans, a tight checkered shirt and a special cowboy hat.

Peculiarities

Western is an original combination of a daring cowboy look from a movie and the calmness of a true country. The garments here are distinguished by their special wear resistance. The materials are used only 100% natural: cotton and durable linen, warmed denim and bikes are popular, for winter products - wool, as well as soft leather and worn suede.

The color scheme is natural - these are tones that are as close as possible to the natural shades of the ground cover and spring grass, that is, the entire spectrum of brown, beige and deep blue, ocher and khaki.

Since the ancestors of this style are the legendary cowboys, their basic wardrobe became the prototype for the cowboy style. The cattle drivers most often chose:

  • jeans that have been worn for a long time;
  • hats with strongly curved edges of the brim, which saved from the rays of the scorching sun;
  • bandana shawls as protection against dust,
  • comfortable boots;
  • cotton shirts;
  • jackets made of smooth leather or soft suede, often with long fringes;
  • gloves;
  • wide belts.

This list of clothes and original accessories has taken root in our days and in the wardrobes of modern connoisseurs and connoisseurs of fashion trends.

Choosing clothes

Western style can be identified in clothing almost immediately - it can be distinguished from other fashionable styles by several basic elements.

Pants

For stylish men, these will be leather or denim models with a loose fit. Young ladies usually choose either strongly flared jeans models, or tight-fitting variations.

Shirt

The usual option is cotton or flannel models in a check of dull colors with a length of about mid-thigh. Sometimes there are also plain shirts, especially in an ensemble with a leather vest. For men, such a shirt will be tucked into trousers, the image for girls allows it to be worn outside or allows you to tie it in a knot at the waist.

Jacket

Usually it is loose fit and not too long, mostly made of high-quality leather or suede. In the wardrobe of women, you can also see jackets made of denim in muted tones.

Vest

It comes from leather, denim, it often has scuffs or fringes. It is a great addition to any wardrobe.

Skirt

Typically, a western style skirt has a maximum length. These are fairly loose models that are made only from natural materials, decorated with folds and frills. However, women who boast flawless legs these days wear rather short skirts in denim or frayed suede with fringes or ripped edges.

Blouse

Most often it is a snow-white or cream blouse made from natural fabrics. Looks great with skinny jeans, cropped shorts and long full skirts.

To add boldness to your look, you can additionally use a corset top.

The dress

In a modern western style, you can use the most feminine and rather simple models. Outfits made of linen or cotton of predominantly light shades are monochromatic or have a muted floral print. In such a dress, any girl will look both romantic and unapproachable. And you can also choose closed dresses in a cage with a small decor of lace.

Denim shorts

This is not quite a traditional Western-style garment, but it is actively used nowadays to create creative bows. They can be quite short and seductive, as well as elongated and more comfortable for horse riding in hot weather.

From this list, you can easily assemble a traditional cowboy costume.

Shoes and accessories

Cowboy-style shoes should make their wearer stand out and draw attention to him (or her). Therefore, you should choose real cowboy boots, cropped boots with low heels, women's fringed ankle boots or short Cossacks.

Most of this kind of shoes will differ from other models by slightly raised up narrow toes, rather wide tops, so that you can quickly tuck jeans inside. And also in cowboy shoes there is often a beveled heel of at least 4 cm in size.Today, this type of shoe is characterized by rich decor: huge buckles, rough embroidery or solid appliqués, wide stitching or metal inserts. Several key items can be considered as characteristic stylistic attributes of Western style.

Cotton bandana

In combination with a stylish vest and hat, this accessory should really make a lasting impression on the layman. The main thing here is to tie it correctly and carelessly. Bandana is available in solid color or with a simple pattern. The colors are dim, slightly muted.

Belt

This accessory must necessarily be wide, with a massive and noticeable from a distance badge. It must match the shade of the chosen shoe or hat.

Decorations

These are massive earrings, wide bracelets, pendants made of metal, wood, leather. Native American motives should be traced in the decorations.

A bag

Original models made of leather or worn suede (with fringe or high-quality embossing on them) are perfect for a full repetition of the style of the Wild West cowboys.

Hairstyles and makeup

A fashionable western look is suitable for all lovers of natural naturalness. In this look, it is enough to highlight the eyes a little, add a slight blush and slightly emphasize the plumpness of the lips. Hairstyle will not cause any hassle either. For girls, the priority is completely loose, slightly carelessly styled hair and not very tight braids.

Instead of the usual hairpins, you can use colored leather laces, ribbons, scarves or headbands.

Successful images

  • Any summer T-shirt and fluffy white cotton skirt will be perfect for a western style, if you add to them a woven cowboy hat, a wide leather belt and bag, as well as suede boots with low heels.
  • If you want to look like a cowboy's girlfriend, put on a beautiful belt with a wide buckle and short Cossacks. With the help of these accessories, any summer dress will acquire the characteristic features of a cowboy bow.
  • A denim vest, a long skirt, a belt with a flashy buckle - even without a cowboy hat, any stylist will determine that this is an image from the history of the Wild West.
  • It is much easier for men to express themselves in this unique style. Denim clothing, a suede or leather jacket, brown boots or low-heeled ankle boots, the most brutal look - and the image of the conqueror of wild bulls and women's hearts is ready.
