Who's up for a ride to the wild wild west in one of these stunning pieces from the Spanish label's Fall selection? We know we are.
Well, would you look at that, it's time to ride into the sunset with Bimba Y Lola's latest Autumn/ Winter 2015 collection. Largely inspired by the wild wild west, and its leading man, Buffalo Bill (William Frederick Cody), the range is one glorious sartorial representation of the American Frontier during the 18th century.
Notably, the collection bursts with the same brand of vibrance and spirit that Buffalo Bill had in his showmanship escapades with the Wild West shows that toured United States, Great Britain and Europe in its heyday. Peppered with multiple hints of the desert's russet plains, taking the form of wide-legged pants, fringed tops, A-line maxi skirts and a whole lot of cowboy prints, the Spanish label definitely twirled the perfect lasso in this one.
However, despite the splashy influence, the clean and refined lines serve to bring the collection back into focus and give it a modern day appeal, especially so with the utilitarian vibe. Additionally, the pieces could easily be paired with items from an existing wardrobe. For instance, envision the white blouse or the cowboy printed shirt paired with a midi skirt, or the red and white dress that could work just as well on its own.
Ultimately, at the end of the day, all we could wonder was how on Earth does a brand decide to take inspiration from the American Indian Wars and yet be capable of spinning the times into such a stylistic result? Clearly, no one can beat Bimba Y Lola in their sublime mastery of the art.
But the only question remains, who's up for a wild ride to the west?
