How the West was won

Posted Nov 16, 2009

Some girls just have it - they saunter into a bar looking sexily ruffled and nonchalant. Don't despair though as for spring 2010, D&G's tribe of urban cowgirls will ensure you'll be the one sauntering into the saloon.

D&G's spring/summer 2010 collection is western inspired - but it's a collection for a cowgirl who's left the ranch for a downtown loft a long time ago.

Combining the suacy inspiration of French actress Brigitte Bardot in the wacky western movie, 'Viva Maria' with early shots of Kate Moss shot by Jurgen Teller - this is one collection that screams downtown cool with that the requiste pinch of quirkiness.

Much as we love a cocktail dress (or three) - D&G's spring/summer 2010 collection is a wearable one - in fact give your denim back to your boyfriend, it's time to invest in your own sexier version.

Pair denim with nineties inspired accessories such as the bum-bag.

Forget ironing your jeans - spring heralds a distinct change in denim trends - it's time to literally become a 'damsel in distressed denim'!

 Denim shirts have never looked sexier.

Get your boy fix in an alternative way - by borrowing their looks and making them your own.

Soft, leather shirts and denim corset dresses are new ways to update the western look.

Get ready for your denim close-up for spring 2010.
