Tunnel Vision: Festival Fashion ideas

By Monica Dinh
Entertainment Editor

With summer just around the corner, festival season is kicking up and that means an array of talented artists and state-of-the-art fashion. From Coachella to Bonnaroo and Firefly to Governors Ball; festival outfits are typically centered on functionality, airiness, and each person’s particular personality.

Bohemian style is directly associated with summer music festivals. Bohemian essentials include flowing ruffled maxi skirts, floppy hats, crocheted sweaters, and peasant tops.

In 2013, there was a blowup of high waisted denim and crop tops. As for 2014, denim shorts and crop tops are considered to be a main staple along with some comfortable shoes. Shoes need to have the ability to tread around in grass, muddy fields, and ash ridden bonfires. Some basics include Converse, espadrilles, Chelsea boots, Wellingtons, and holographic sandals.

It cannot be forgotten that the weather isn’t always cooperative so it’s a smart idea to be prepared. Bring shoes that can get dirty along with a sweatshirt or an anorak to stay dry. Basic army anoraks, denim jackets, and floral bombers are a few needed essentials.

Taking inspiration from festival style icons like Vanessa Hudgens and Alexa Chung, it’s always very important to standout, but also to be comfortable. According to an article published on Teen Vogue’s website, Alexa Chung said, “I don’t really like ‘festival fashion,’ because it goes against anything I do like, which is classic, easy, and wearable.”

Personal touches can be made by wearing or adding unique pieces like boldly printed tops, pantsuits, rompers, overalls, kimonos, and sheer dresses. Other ideas are going a little bit unconventional. Festivals are expected to have some unconventional dressers, but in the end music goers should wear whatever makes them feel comfortable.
