Fashion Show

I just got back from the Fashion Show at the Denver Market. This is the big English and Western International Market for everything horse. All the new tack, apparel, decor, accessories, purses, belts, etc are showcased for '09. Anyway, the Fashion Show was fun and upbeat. Colors: think turquoise, brown, black, and beautiful maroons, just to name a few. Saw some red cowboy hats, too! Bling is still in and going strong. Belts are being worn higher, if appropriate with the outfit. Layered look is in, such as a long shirt under a short jacket. Long skirts were shown. Also features such as flannel...embroidery....metalic/foil textures...some emphasis on "green design".....vintage...tatoo art. Just some of the many inspirations I noted. Happy Trails! Susan B
