On Trend: Clinching a Comeback
Clockwise from top: Engraved Clincher Bracelet; Figure 8 Clincher Bridle; Alexander McQueen Riding Leather Platform Sandal with Clincher Detail
Just a few years ago, the bridles with clincher browbands would have been buried at the back of the tack store. Crystal bling was king and clinchers – with their row of brass or silver studs – suddenly felt old school and outdated. But, as they say in fashion, everything old becomes new again and – traditionalists rejoice! – the clincher is making a comeback.
Need proof? Look no further than the Alexander McQueen Riding Leather Platform Sandal with silver clincher detail (worn by none other than original supermodel Naomi Campbell herself).
For horse and rider, a clincher browband is once again on trend. And these bracelets and belts complete the understated while still eye-catching look.
