Leather jackets, country plaids and metallic cowboy boots: Four distinct NYFW designers present their own versions of the modern day girl from the wild west.
By Aishwarya Tyagi
Coach 1941
Coach 1941's country girl takes a more sporty approach with A-line miniskirts in tapestry prints and felted woolens coordinating with jackets in leather and suede. Heeled loafers are trimmed with horsebit embellishment while metallic cowboy boots complete the look with attitude.
Tory Burch
Tory Burch's city-girl-in-the-field inspired autumn/winter show displayed a variety of equestrian jodhpurs and tassled suede ankle boots paired with color-blocked coats and skirts. A more urban version of a western country wardrobe.
Rodarte
Coach a/w16^
Rodarte's a/w16 show embodied a more gothic appeal with a touch of Native American flair. Clunky ruffled leather jackets, complete with gloves and belts teamed with ruffled calf-boots were a culmination of expert hand-craftsmanship kissed with an air of dark romanticism.
