If you’re anything like us, you’re loving the Western vibes that dominated the Fall 2025 runways. From cowboy boots to fringe jackets, designers like Schiaparelli and Johanna Ortiz are redefining the American West with a modern twist. But, we know that luxury fashion can come with a hefty price tag. So, how can you get that runway Western look without breaking the bank?
Sustainable Shopping: The Vintage Route
One of the best ways to score unique Western pieces is by shopping vintage or second-hand. Not only is it more sustainable, but you can find truly one-of-a-kind items that will make your outfit stand out (and make your friends a little jealous). If you don’t have the time to sift through thrift stores, don’t worry! We’ve got some budget-friendly alternatives to help you achieve that Western chic.
Daniel Roseberry, the visionary Texas-born creative director of Schiaparelli, has reconnected with his Lone Star roots this season. His Fall 2025 collection stands as a love letter to Western Americana, filtered through the house’s signature surrealist lens.
Roseberry’s designs feature meticulously crafted pieces in faded, washed black denim that capture the lived-in essence of authentic Western wear while maintaining Schiaparelli’s luxury craftsmanship. His innovative approach to layered belts—some adorned with the house’s iconic gold hardware, others featuring hand-tooled leather detailing—creates a striking silhouette that balances rugged functionality with sophistication.

Johanna Ortiz: The Modern Cowgirl’s Revolution
Colombian designer Johanna Ortiz has always celebrated femininity in her collections, but her Fall 2025 offering elevates Western-inspired fashion. Ortiz has crafted a cohesive vision of the modern cowgirl — sophisticated, worldly, and bold.
Her runway showcased breathtaking long, embroidered skirts featuring intricate floral patterns inspired by prairie wildflowers, paired with meticulously crafted cowboy boots in unexpected materials like velvet and satin. The collection’s incredible studded jackets — some cropped, others oversized — feature delicate beadwork alongside traditional Western studs, creating a captivating tension between rugged and refined.
Ortiz’s masterful use of fringe deserves special attention. Rather than simply adorning hemlines, she incorporates this quintessential Western detail as a dynamic design element, creating movement and drama in everything from evening gowns to tailored blazers.

Mainstreaming Western Motifs
Beyond these standout collections, Western details are everywhere in Fall 2025 fashion. Cow print has become a neutral, appearing on coats and handbags in bold colorways. Fringe is also having a moment, showing up on evening wear, knitwear, and accessories. To incorporate these trends into your wardrobe, look for affordable pieces like a Bohemian crossbody bag with fringe details or a cow-print t-shirt to get that perfect Wild Hearted style.
Stay Wild. Stay Fashionable. Stay Country.
