Fashionable Chaps

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Designers like Andrea Llosa & Givenchy Bring Back Cowboy Chic

— September 4, 2009 — Fashion
Fashionable chaps aren't just for cowboys anymore; in fact, crotchless pants were all the rage for the ladies these days -- at least on fall 2009/10 runway of designers like Andrea Llosa and on the Spring 2009 catwalk of Givenchy.

Andrea Llosa, a Peruvian designer, paired fashionable chaps with super short dresses (or long t-shirts, I'm not really sure) that revealed a whole lot of nothingness between the upper thighs while Givenchy opted for a biker-chic leather and denim look.

Flashback to Dsquared² in 2005 and witness an absolutely stunning western collection featuring cowboy hats, denim and chaps. Another collection worth revisiting is the Spring 2004 Ready-to-Wear line from Roberto Cavalli, who featured an eclectic but awesome mix of everything from flowing dresses to fashionable chaps.

While the look is daring, if the right woman rocks them the right way, fashionable chaps can be truly fabulous!
