RANCHERO

02

In the crags and steppes of mountainous Peru, ranchers and farmers hold to age-old traditions. The colors of the natural world are mirrored and amplified in the traditional embroidered and woven textiles. Utilitarian details rendered in distressed leather, suede, and sturdy canvas add to the look.

Slubby, textured wools and blends give a handmade flavor. Dusty reds, deep magentas, and rusty browns contrast with vibrant blues and lush greens, echoing the landscape. Ponchos and cropped, boxy jackets are layered on top of voluminous prairie skirts and horseback-ready denim and corduroy. Wide leather belts define the waistline. Glinting silver boleros and worn rancher hats accent minimal makeup and wavy, windblown locks.

AMERICAN PASTORAL 18

A union of feminine and utilitarian evokes the style of the World War II-era "land girls," American women who took over the farm duties as their husbands, fathers, and brothers headed for the front lines. The dreamlike pastoral scene depicted in Andrew Wyeth's "Christina's World" portrays both the rudderless loss and intoxicating freedom these women felt as they stepped into their new roles. Sunny yellows and faded pastels mingle with earthy browns and olive greens, reflecting the bucolic landscape. Crisp gingham and cheerful ditsy florals convey the era's buoyant patriotism. Dresses with nipped waists meet raw denim and boxy poplin shirts. Face-framing portrait collars and knotted silk secretary blouses capture the delicate yet practical femininity of the 1940's. ladylike kitten heels and saddle shoes along with Farm-inspired details like woven straw complete the silhouette. Classic pearls accent bright lipstick and sculpted cheeks for an aura of irrepressibly feminine beauty.
