If you are into riding then you may have to look towards Europe to find great trends in riding attire. European fashion trends tend to be a little bit more fashion forward that what is being worn around the American stables while still giving a definite nod to tradition. However, you can incorporate these great fashion styles into your wardrobe even from overseas. Rememberthat fashion definitely has seasons and we are approaching one as we speak. Fashion season are fall/winter and spring/summer. So make sure that if you are buying fashionable pieces they can last through the season.
Some trends that are being over seas are a play on the equestrian style clothing. The trend seems to be going in the direction of making the tradition riding outfit not only more feminine but prettier and more durable. Types of this clothing include stretchy riding pants. We have something similar to this with the legging. However, in European fashions the pants have more detail along the seam of the leg as well as on the front panel. Think of these tight fitting pants in styles like plaid with plum, rose, and hazelnut hues. Also look for two tones breeches to make an appearance.
Gloves are also making a big appearance for spring. While you probably always done a pair of glove you can do so now but with a little bit more style. The play on the leather gloves will be very hot. Think of stylish and feminine riding gloves in bright and dramatic colors and designs. Just because you are holding reigns does not mean that you have to look terrible.
There are several styles in jackets that will have evolved from riding jackets. Not only will these jacked be cute and stylish in bright spring colors and patterns but they will wind resistant and have cooling properties. This new line will also have a stain resistant material that will repel dirt and stains. Think of how great it will be to not have to worry about dirt stains on your clothes.
