Wear to Where: Four Corner Fashion
10.19.11
The chicest pieces to wear this season are Southwest-inspired and they’re not your run-of-the-mill cowboy shirts with tooled-leather belts. This fall, it's all about high-contrast Navajo patterns and richly intricate textures; take a cue from the runways of Proenza Schouler and Isabel Marant. Designers traded in their usual plaid, denim and studs this year for more luxurious fabrications like satin, leather and suede. While they still show touches of turquoise, feathers and fringe, these materials feel less casual country than in recent seasons; they’re more reminiscent of the textures seen in stark photographs by artist Georgia O’Keefe of Santa Fe landscapes.
To hitch your wagon to this West fashion trend, pick a silhouette—from a western style shirt to a bolero hat, fringe boots, feather earrings or a hand-tooled handbag. Remember to keep the palette simple and bring in contrasting black, white and earth tones. As an alternative to turquoise, try onyx or carnelian in a Navajo-inspired silver setting and don't be afraid to clash it up, these pieces look best when paired with: color blocked separates, super-bold solids, or even wildly piled one on top of the other. Bone and horn accessories, a sprinkling of fringe or a stark American Indian motif will bring an organic but glamorous addition to the simplest item. Yee Ha !
