In addition to the obviously trend-defining release of Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter Tour, the summer music festival scene has been rife with Western wear ranging from cowboy boots to tasseled button-ups.
It’s safe to say if you have tickets to any concert or festival this summer, you also have a personal invite to go fully Western in terms of outfit choices. There are also plenty of brands that are making it easy to play this up as much or as little as you want. From cow-print pants that are dominating brands like Abercrombie and Free People, to fringed skirts and button-ups that fully embody cowboy culture — now is the time to accept your starring role in the western that will be written about this year’s music culture.
We’ve broken the outfit components down into tops, bottoms, accessories and boots — and there are plenty of ways to make multiple outfits from each piece.
Western Tops
There are way more Western top styles than you may initially think, including classic button-ups, fringe-clad halters and vests of all kinds. We’ve also thrown in a ribbed tank that features a cute horse print for true cowgirls only.
Western Bottoms
From cow prints and rhinestones to barrel-let silhouettes, the different takes on Western style really come out to play in when it comes to pants. We’ve give you a few of those options, as well as some fringed skirts that would look great paired with lots of different boot styles.
Western Accessories
The name of the accessory game has been fringe, bandanas and hats — both cowboy and trucker. We’ve also pulled together a belt style that’s been popular on TikTok when worn over flowy dresses and wide leg jeans alike. That said, if you’re just looking for a touch of western flair, opt for a horse charm or throw on a bandana around your neck or even tied to your purse handle.
Cowboy Boots
Cowboy boots are back and brands are offering up designs that are so much more fun than the classics that may have come to mind 10 years ago. From bright colors to varying calf heights, there’s truly something for everyone. To make sure you can dance to your heart’s content at the concert, we chose some options that feature fairly low heel heights. Get ready to boot, scoot and boogie!
