Thakoon does Cowboys & Indians for Spring '12

Well, now I know why I wasn't invited to Thakoon's Spring '12 ready-to-wear show for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week--security would have had a hard time keeping me from tackling these models and running off with their clothes.

Hands-down, my favorite look of the collection.

Colorful paisley leads the inspirational transition from cowboy handkerchief to Indian sari.

I bet the details on the neckline are out of this world.

I would have snatched up every single one of these bold Bollywood-meets-Hollywood Western looks, leaving behind tufts of cotton-candy colored hair in my wake. I love that the show started with an oversaturated cowboy flair and slowly morphed into sweet, flowy fabrics reminiscent of saris in India. The two-tone hats (which I also would have left on the runway--I'm not a hat person) were designed by milliner Heather Huey.

What did you think of Thakoon's Spring '12 collection? Would we have been wrestling over any of the same pieces?
