CHOOSE YOUR FESTIVAL PERSONA
FLANNELS FORMULA:
The sun is shining, the acts are hotter than ever, and the fits are working hard. That’s right, festival season is back – and it’s time to start planning your festival outfits. From the return of Coachella and Mighty Hoopla, ft. Lily Allen, Zara Larsson and Justin Bieber amongst others, this festival season is set to be something special. From waterproofs c/o Gucci to festival-ready boots via Prada, this is how to style out festival season.
FORECAST READY
Dress for the weather you want, not the weather you have - but it pays to have something appropriate in the mix. Enter Gucci’s windbreaker, paired with a matching mini skirt for a look that feels pulled together with minimal effort. Add a fresh white vest and finish with a pair of (almost) knee-high boots from Miu Miu. As for makeup? All-out glitter, please.
BOGGIRLIE
Boho is having a big moment. The way to make it feel 2026? Lean into dusky hues and floaty, layered pieces. Chloé, of course, has nailed the formula. Style it with a pair of Fendi trainers to keep you comfortable between sets, oversized circular sunglasses from Chloé, and a woven bucket bag. That’s fetch.
IF IT AIN’T BROKE…
A classic for a reason, the failsafe trio of windbreaker, denim cut-offs and biker boots still reigns supreme. It’s the kind of look you’ll be grateful for when the rain sets in; easy, comfortable - and crucially - waterproof. It’s in Canada Goose we trust.
WHAT TIME’S KICK OFF?
Thanks to a certain football tournament just around the corner, game-inspired fits are back on the radar. The trick to making it festival-ready? Keep it relaxed but considered. Start with a football jersey from Y-3, then balance it out with low-slung women’s tracksuit shorts by Casablanca.
As the sun dips, a lightweight extra layer is non-negotiable - Anine Bing does it best. Keep things cohesive underfoot with Nokwol, and for your essentials? A statement stripe c/o Jacquemus never misses.
IN MY FESTIVAL ERA
There’s no escaping the influence of Zara Larsson’s worldwide tour right now. Cue a few key details - cowboy boots, coordinating handbags and a brightly coloured slip dress - working their way neatly into festival wardrobes. The finishing touch? A slick of balm from Prada Beauty.
BEAUTY ESSENTIALS TO MAKE ROOM FOR
Heading to a festival usually means a full makeup bag isn’t top of the list - or even an option. Still, a few failsafe essentials go a long way...
Keep things light and fresh with the Kylie Cosmetics skin tint. Factoring in late nights and very little sleep, lean on the fairy godmother of glow, Charlotte Tilbury. A little strategic blending under the eyes and you can just about fake a full eight hours. Warm things up with Guerlain’s Terracotta Bronzer, then sweep a hint of shimmer across the lids with a compact quad from Tom Ford Beauty. Finally, lock it all in with a few spritzes of setting spray. And voilà, you’re set.
