The [Vogue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/no-rules-club) Spain April 2012 Kasia Struss photoshoot features strange and unpredictable Western motifs. The [cowgirl theme](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wild-west-chrome-collection) is made readily apparent here by way of studded desert-ready hats and handkerchiefs, all of which are jazzed up with couture twists.

The Western motif assumed by Struss, a Polish model by descent, worked well with the artistic direction of photographer Giampaolo Sgura. Sgura has captured the rugged and bizarre essence of the editorial, evinced by way of a smoking Struss and a scruffy man with a fierce gaze. Stylist Sara Fernández added her personal touches to the set, selecting tattered vests and [wrangler-esque belts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/wrangler-x-happy-socks). This particular approach to high fashion of the ranch variety has seldom been seen, producing a distinctive and entirely eccentric vibe.
