How to Style Festival Looks

Festival fashion is a balance of colourful, stand-out looks and practicality for an outdoor event. Layering up is a great way to prepare for all weathers, but also a wonderful way to build flowy fabrics into your outfit for a hippie-chic look. 

Boots will protect your feet from UK festival mud, but also offer lots of opportunities for statement style. Pick boots with embroidery or embellishments for a unique look. 

Finish with statement accessories like layered beads, dangly earrings, a striking shawl or even a poncho!

What Size Do I Need?

Comfort is everything at a festival, so make sure your clothes fit well.

Festival Clothing FAQs 

What to wear to a rock festival

Need a rocking festival look? A graphic t-shirt paired with a leather jacket will give you instant grungy glam. You can finish the look off with jeans, or be comfy with a skirt or baggy trousers. 

How to dress for Coachella style

More boho-style festivals like Beatherder, Bestival and Coachella call for hippie-chic fashion.

Try a maxi dress with a vibrant paisley print and bursts of colour. Or opt for flowy, printed harem trousers and a t-shirt, finished with a loose crochet wrap or patterned shawl.

How to accessorise for a festival

No festival look is complete without showstopping accessories. Leave delicate and valuable jewellery at home to keep it safe, instead opting for casual pieces like bold beads and large earrings.

As festivals take place in the summer, grab some statement sunglasses to avoid squinting in all of your lovely photos, and add a brimmed hat for an extra bit of sun protection.

Of course, you’ll need a big enough bag for all of your festival essentials. Choose a beach bag with woven or embroidered elements, tassels or fringing to fit the festival theme.
