CHOOSE YOUR FESTIVAL PERSONA
FESTIVAL EDIT:
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 get excited. From the return of Glastonbury, ft. Dua Lipa, SZA and Little Simz amongst others, to Wireless with Nicki Minaj and Doja Cat, this festival season is set to be something special. From waterproofs c/o Stone Island to bucket hats via adidas x Wales Bonner, this is how to style out festival season.
EVER THE OPTIMIST
Dress for the weather you want, not the weather you have, we say. Cue swimwear worn as outerwear c/o Vivienne Westwood’s cut-out swimsuit. Just add a pleated tennis-style skirt from Rabanne and a pair of preppy high-top trainers. As for the makeup? All-out glitter, please.
CROCHET GIRLIE
Thanks to the boho revival, crochet is having a big moment. The way to make it feel very 2024? Packing in bright colours and fun designs. Casablanca, of course, has nailed the formula. Pair with bright eyes c/o Morphe’s collab with Jaclyn Hill, big yellow sunglasses from Jacquemus and a cute Prada crochet bag. That’s fetch.
IF IT AIN’T BROKE….
A classic festival look for a reason, the failsafe formula of Barbour, Hunters and denim cut-offs still reigns supreme. Ideal for those festival days when it’s tipping it down and you just want your outfit to be easy, comfortable and, well, waterproof. It’s in Alexa we trust.
WHAT TIME’S KICK OFF?
Blokecore is showing no signs of slowing down thanks to a certain football tournament that’s dominating our lives. The best way to take the sporting vibe with you to your next festival? With Aries special collaboration with Umbro. Celebrating 100 years of the sports brand, the duo has looked into its rich sporting archives to deliver a collection that pays tribute to the “English Rose”. To finish the look, add the ultimate terrace sneaker, the addias Samba, and a Jacquemus bucket hat
IN MY FESTIVAL ERA
There’s no escaping the impact of Taylor Swift’s tour on the UK right now, with a few elements – think silver cowboy boots, disco handbags and a crochet-style mini dress – feeding into our festival looks. The finishing touch? A flick of eyeliner and a bright red lip.
BEAUTY ESSENTIALS TO MAKE ROOM FOR
Easy beauty products that’ll help protect your skin and nourish it back to life after long nights and lots of sunshine. Shiseido’s Clear Suncare Stick makes SPF application a doddle. Just swipe across the face when needed and stash in your handbag throughout the day. When it comes to removing all that festival dirt and grime, Clinique’s All-in-One Cleansing Micellar Milk Makeup Remover removes pollution and impurities, while Eve Lom has created their Cleansing Oil in handy capsules, perfect for your travels.
