Focus on key pieces you can style in various ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A lightweight summer dress has been a staple of the Stampede outfit since its beginnings in the late 1880s and remains a go-to in the 21st century. Since the Stampede takes place in early July, during peak summer heat, a breathable dress is a perfect choice. Opting for a loose-fitting dress made of light, natural fabric ensures comfort. You can pair it with a Western-style belt or leave it flowing for a more casual look.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Western_Boots\"><\/span>Western Boots<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1122\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3601\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13-768x539.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13-1536x1077.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13-696x488.jpg 696w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/2-13-1068x749.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Western-style boots are an essential element of any Stampede outfit. Choose a pair that complements the rest of your attire, whether that\u2019s knee-high boots, traditional cowboy boots, or ankle booties. Low, comfortable heels are ideal for staying on your feet all day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Short dresses pair well with tall cowboy boots, while vintage boots with fringe or beadwork can add a touch of charm to long dresses. Look for such treasures in antique or thrift shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Western_Hats\"><\/span>Western Hats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"935\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/3-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3604\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/3-10.jpg 935w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/3-10-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/3-10-768x452.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/3-10-696x409.jpg 696w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 935px) 100vw, 935px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Flat-brimmed or soft hats are a great addition to complete your festival look. Beyond style, a hat serves the practical purpose of protecting you from the sun or rain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The white hat, a symbol of Calgary Stampede hospitality, was created by Morris Shumiatcher, founder of Smithbilt Hat Company. First worn at the Stampede in 1947, it became a tradition in the 1950s when Calgary Mayor Donald Hugh Mackay began presenting them to distinguished visitors. Attendees now frequently wear white hats to the festival. In 1983, the white hat was incorporated into Calgary&#8217;s flag design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When purchasing a cowboy hat, consider fit and quality. The quality of a cowboy hat is rated by the number of Xs\u2014the more Xs, the higher the quality. A good hat can be expensive but is a long-term investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While white hats are iconic, any cowboy hat can work for the Stampede. For hot summer days, straw hats are an excellent choice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember, wearing a cowboy hat comes with etiquette. Always remove your hat when entering a building, especially at formal events. Exceptions include lobbies, elevators, and hallways. Hats should also be removed when dining indoors but can remain on outdoors. If placing your hat down, always rest it crown-up to allow ventilation and avoid bad luck, as per old superstitions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Finally, never take someone else\u2019s hat without permission\u2014it\u2019s one of the most personal items for any cowboy or cowgirl.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Denim\"><\/span>Denim<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1000\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3607\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10-696x464.jpg 696w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/4-10-1068x712.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Denim clothing is another fantastic choice for the Stampede. There are numerous ways to incorporate denim into a Western-inspired outfit. Denim emphasizes the ruggedness of the Western look since cowboys needed durable, long-lasting clothing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pair denim jeans with Western-style belts featuring large buckles. For rainy weather, skinny jeans and a tunic-length top are a practical alternative to a dress, providing a versatile and neutral foundation. To add a Western touch, layer with a fringe kimono.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A denim jacket is another excellent choice\u2014a classic and versatile piece that many already have in their wardrobe. Add a pop of femininity with a colorful handbag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Versatile_Bag\"><\/span>Versatile Bag<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3610\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3-768x410.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3-696x371.jpg 696w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/5-3-1068x570.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Traditional Western style often includes layering and mixing textures. For example, suede, fringe, or saddle-shaped bags are popular festival choices. Suede is synonymous with Western style, while fringe adds movement and playfulness.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose a larger bag if you need space for festival essentials. A crossbody saddlebag is a secure way to keep items close at hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alternatively, woven bags made of natural materials are a great option. Their earthy tones and textures complement Stampede style perfectly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Accessories\"><\/span>Accessories<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1122\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3613\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2-300x210.jpg 300w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2-768x539.jpg 768w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2-1536x1077.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2-696x488.jpg 696w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/6-2-1068x749.jpg 1068w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>After assembling your outfit, it\u2019s time to add unique pieces that showcase your personality. The Stampede is the perfect opportunity to experiment with bold jewelry, from fine pieces to costume accessories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cuff bracelets and vintage turquoise rings are top picks for Stampede outfits. Use this occasion to bring out vintage silver, turquoise, or fringe jewelry that may not fit into your everyday wardrobe. If you don\u2019t have such items, they\u2019re often available at flea markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Scarves_Bandanas_or_Neckerchiefs\"><\/span>Scarves, Bandanas, or Neckerchiefs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"449\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/50\/2024\/11\/7-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/7-1.jpg 640w, https:\/\/cdn.calgarynka.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2024\/11\/7-1-300x210.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>For a touch of retro flair, tie a vintage scarf, bandana, or neckerchief around your bag\u2019s strap or handle. This is an easy and inexpensive way to brighten up your look with complementary colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These accessories are not just stylish but also practical for outdoor festivals. They can cover your nose, mouth, and lungs to protect against dust, especially during live performances.
