Launching this year’s Santa Clarita Cowboy Festival on Wednesday, April 27 is the return of Cowboy Couture, in a new location, at the Repertory East Playhouse in the heart of Old Town Newhall.

Cowboy Couture is a big-city, cowboy-infused fashion show that promises to be the hottest honkytonk of the year.

People will talk about this one.

Festivities start at 6:30 p.m. with a reception provided by RSVP Catering in The Hydeaway Lounge, the REP’s exclusive full-service saloon.

Western designer fashions, including those from Renegade Spirit, Ann ‘N Eve, Loco Lindo, Sarape Girl, Old Frontier Clothing, Brush Poppers, Marrika Nakk, Buckaroo Bobbins, Bronco Sue and Silver King will be featured, as well as local retailers Out West, Boot Barn and the Country General Store. Some of the designers and vendors will have shops set up outside the REP so guests can shop for the latest Western wear before and after the show.
