Fashion Trend: Native American Look
Be ready to play the role of Pocahontas this summer with the hottest trend on Native American inspired fashion. Let the American spirit shine through with your outfits layered in rustic colors, embellished and feathered accessories and fringed boots. This trend was almost forgotten and played roles only in western movies. Take inspiration from the Navajo crafts and prints and create an outfit that would make Pocahontas and her tribe proud. Although it’s not the easiest trend to pull off getting it correctly would give you that perfect and one-of-a-kind summer look.
The Runways
Designers have reinvented the Native American fashion style. They adapted it with the current trends so everyone can wear it. The girls of Anna Sui were the resurrection of Nomads dressed in hippie and ethnic inspired outfit. Casual tops paired with denims made them look modern day Native Americans. Etro created something more vibrant by using graphic and tribal prints in bold colors and flowy silhouettes.
Cavalli had a sexier and spirited version of the look. He used fringes, leather, animal prints in a neutral color palette. Gucci was the face of sophistication by using earth and neutral hues, textures and stitches.
How To Wear It:
Think of feathers, tassels, fringes, beads and more. These are just few of the things that will remind you of the Native American look. This trend might push through for the next season so make sure you get the best outfit with this theme.
- Add some color into your Navajo outfit by adding rich greens or yellows.
- If you want a striking Cherokee look without committing to the whole trend you can add some feather embellishments into your ponytail. Pretty simple, right?
- If you want something less obvious why don’t you pile up those accessories. Combine silver, antique, feathered, beaded jewelries together.
- Wear faded denims with biker boots and biker jacket for a grunge take on the trend.
- Wear your hair band on the forehead so it would look like a headdress.
- Wear some feminine top with stylish embroidery.
- Wear moccasins, embellished flats or animal skin heels.
- Complete your look with a fringed bag for a true Native American look.
