10 Great Festival Outfit Ideas

A festival is the perfect time to explore your own personal aesthetic and try something different. But with the wide range of festival outfits out there, it can’t be hard to known what style to go with. Luckily for you, we’ve put together a list of 10 killer festival outfits that will be perfect for you to stand out and fill your Insta feed with lit pics. 

• Flares with a crop top

Put a modern twist on a classic 70s look by teaming some flares with a crop top. You’ll love how comfortable this outfit is. Plus, the flares do the heavy lifting when it comes to style, so you don’t have to worry about finding lots of accessories.

Choose flares in funky patterns or fun fabrics like velvet or corduroy. Team them with some platform shoes and get ready to strut your stuff at any music festival this summer. 

• Matching two-piece

Take some of the hard thinking out of coming up with a festival outfit by opting for a matching two-piece outfit. Whether it’s shorts and a crop top or a skirt and a long-sleeve tee, you can find some great matching two-pieces. Look for exciting patterns and bright colours, like yellow tartan or bold stripes. 

Then you just need to find a pair of shoes and some key accessories to match. Remember that it’s your two-piece that is the centre of attention, so choose accessories that complement but don’t draw attention away from the two-piece.

• Metallic

Whether it’s classic gold or silver, or modern holographic, metallic is a classic festival look. A metallic outfit will have you shining under the sun and sparkling under the stars.

Look for clothes with reflective properties and team them with shoes to match. And when it comes to accessories, try chain harnesses and necklaces. You’ll be bound to stand out with this stunning look.

• Sheer dress

If you’re looking for an outfit that’s fun, flirty, and comfortable, try this easyboho look. Put on your favourite crop top and shorts then layer them with a sheer dress over the top. Add your favourite sandals and sunnies to the outfit, along with a wide-brimmed relaxed hat and you’ll look like a celebrity on holiday. 

• Double denim

If you don’t want to buy anything new for your festival outfit, then double denim is the way to go. Look in your closet for your favourite jeans or denim shorts and then team them with a denim jacket. 

Hardwearing and great looking, it’s hard to go past this easy and killer outfit. You’ll be super comfy; grass stains won’t be a worry and you can save your money for festival tickets. 

• Desert style

Embrace the warm summer weather with a desert-inspired outfit. Think cowboy boots and fringed jackets. Add a crop top, your favourite denim shorts and a wide-brim hat and you’re ready to turn heads. Don’t forget to take lots of action pics with your fringe jacket waving and with a cool pair of sunnies on to finish the look. 

• Overalls

For a cute but comfy look, try a pair of overalls. Choose overalls in bright colours and patterns or team classic denim overalls with a fun shirt underneath. Alternatively, try a pinafore for a more feminine look. In overalls, you can jump and dance with ease while still looking sensational. 

• Glitter rainbow

Festivals are the perfect time to wear something completely out of the ordinary. Turn yourself into a shimmering rainbow with glitter and sequins, and neon and bright colours. Pick the most colourful items in your wardrobe and team them together. Or choose comfortable faves and give them a makeover. Use fabric paint to create your own unique designs and stick sequins and glitter on for good measure. 

And don’t forget about accessories and make up. Try some fun glitter or gem make up and add some colour and sparkle to your hair too. This way, you’ll be a sparkling star wherever you go at the festival. 

• Crochet

For a trendy throwback look, add some crochet to your look. You can find just about any item of clothing crocheted, from bikinis to crop tops to shorts. Plus, crochet clothing is lightweight and ideal for summer.

If you’re looking to save money or to have a unique piece, you can also crochet your own clothing. Plus, you’ll learn a fun new skill. 

Pick your crochet statement piece and then add some must-have basics, like denim shorts or a cute crop top. And then pick so simple accessories to finish the look.

• Animal prints

Animal prints are popular at festivals and the gossip is that python print is the animal print for this year. While you’ll still look stunning in leopard, python is en pointe. Either go all out or pick key accessories, like a jacket or bag, in this must-have print.
