The cowboy core trend has been on the horizon for some time, with western boots and all-denim outfits being a common sight over the past year or two. However, it seems everyone is fully embracing the cowboy aesthetic this season, and it's predicted to be one of the summer's biggest trends thanks to Beyoncé's Cowboy Carter tour announcement. If you want to give the western look a bit of a 2025 update, think suede, fringing and lots of cow print! Whether you're keen to sport a complete cowboy-themed look or just want to dabble in the trend, we've found a variety of western accessories, fabrics and looks that you can easily incorporate into your daily outfits.
And if you're on the hunt for the perfect tour outfit, we have found exactly what you need. Cowboy Core doesn't necessarily mean you need to try head-to-toe double denim, cowboy hats and fringe. This simple yet chic shirt dress from Superdry, paired with some western or biker boots, is the perfect way to subtly engage with the trend without going overboard. Double denim is a trend in its own right, but it also fits perfectly into the cowboy core trend. Go full Canadian tuxedo by teaming this H&M denim shirt with a pair of similar shade jeans. Elevate the look further by adding a suede belt and some cowboy boots.
If you're not ready to fully embrace the trend, a cowboy hat is an easy way to dip your toe in. Free People offers a vast range of stylish Western-style clothing, and we love the simplicity of pairing a cowboy hat and boots with a floaty, almost boho-style maxi skirt and blouse. Fringing and leather are essential cowboy core materials. This fringed maxi crochet dress from All Saints is hugely versatile, depending on how you style it. The perfect piece for a summer holiday or festival.
