Dream Catcher Collection

Our Dream Catcher collection has to be one of my favorites. The details and colors we use when making these pieces are easily matched with almost any color chaps/pants. 

Dream Life

Be the best dressed in any arena with this one-of-a-kind dream catcher design. A Sparkling Showstopper! This top is stunning in person and the sparkle is breathtaking.

The Dream Catcher

SO many color options! You’ll ride comfortable all day and the look is tailored and flattering. You can pair this vest with any color in the design shirt. Love purple? Match with a purple shirt and saddle pad. You can really pull any color! 

Living The Dream

We covered this jacket in swirling clear Swarovski crystals then we filled in the design with a sparkling, high end mix of Swarovski crystals, pearls and other elements.

Keep an eye out for more dream catcher inspired horsemanship apparel on our site.

New site launched!

Over the Thanksgiving holiday we decided to revamp our website and we would love to know what our customers and followers think of it. 

For the new site we went with a very clean and modern look that's easy on the eyes. There is also a new wholesale feature that we are still working on. 

While you're checking out the new site don't forget to look at some of the sales we have going on. You still have enough time to get that perfect holiday gift for the rider in your life.

Many thanks!

We would like to thank all of our readers and customers who have supported us through the years, without you all we would not be where we are today. 

We hope everyone has a safe and Happy Thanksgiving! We will be back in the office on Monday December 1st.

Knock Offs Vs. Inspiration

Here at Lisa Nelle Show Clothing we take great pride in all of our designs and efforts to make our customers look glamorous in and out of the ring. So when we come across other "show clothing designers" that are clearly using our designs as their own, it really grinds our gears. It is one thing to be inspired by fellow designers and its another thing to blatantly copy someone else's work. 

Here's a lesson to those copycats out there...

This is an example of inspiration. We saw an ad in the Equine Chronicle featuring a beautiful jacket by Showtime Show Clothing and immediately fell in love with the blue and green ombre tones. This is how we were inspired...

Now that you've seen what it looks like when a designer is inspired by another designer's work, we'd like to show you what a knock off looks like. We do not wish to promote the businesses that steal our designs so we will refrain from listing their company names.

Knock Off 

We're flattered that these "designers" are so in love with our work. However when other companies steal our designs and claim them as their own it cheapens the whole idea of showmanship. Copycats are not designers, they're thieves, and to top it off we find many of these poorly made knock offs priced higher than our original designs. 


As always we value your feedback and would like to know what you think about these copycat designers, comment below with your thoughts. 

What do you think?

Fall heat wave!?

If you live in California then you know what I'm talking about when I say Fall heat wave. Its October and the rest of the week is going to be in the high 90's. 

Last I checked Summer was over....So with that in mind we designed two new beautiful showmanship vests that will look great and feel great in this weather. 

Blushing Black Beauty

 The Blushing Black Beauty vest is definitely one-of-a-kind. Take your black chaps to another level with this updated vest. Wear with a black shirt and you've got a completely different look!

Native Feathers

Unsurpassed style in the ring…and oh so flattering. This vest has been embellished with our metal squares and crystals in several colors. We have used our signature base fabric in black. It’s comfortable, high end, washable and has a structured stretch that gives an incredibly flattering look.

If vests aren't what you're looking for you can always check out our site. We have new styles and sizes available each week!

How to take your measurements

When taking your measurements, always use a cloth measuring tape. Remember to wear proper undergarments. If you wear a special support bra for riding, your measurements should be taken with that bra on. Also, make sure the tape measure is held snugly and firmly (not tightly) against your body and is always parallel to the floor for circumference measurements. For more accurate results, it is best to have someone else measure you. I also highly recommend measuring a finished garment you already have the fits properly and comparing those measurements to your own.

Bust: Measure around the fullest part of the bust.

Waist: Measure the smallest part of the waist.

Hip: The hip measurement is taken at the widest part of the hips.

Sleeve: With one arm down at a slight angle, start from the corner of the shoulder and measure down to where you'd like your sleeve to end.

Shoulder Width: Measure across the back from the corner of one shoulder to the corner of the other shoulder. For this measurement, I recommend measuring a jacket you already have that fits properly. Laying the jacket flat, measure from shoulder seam to shoulder seam.

Center Front Length: This measurement is taken from the base of the neck down to where you would like the jacket hem to end.

Below is our size chart we use to make our showmanship apparel. Keep in mind we now go up to a size 5x
