Any solid festival wardrobe involves a combination of a few things: comfy clothes you can move around in all day (and night) long, pieces that are lightweight enough for midday humidity and cozy enough for breezy nights, and chic AF style. This last bit is, of course, the most fun part of this endeavor—and it’s the thing that leaves the festival clothes landscape feeling as delightful, exciting and Instagram-worthy as it does. It’s also the thing that makes me want to shop festival clothes, even though I’m not planning on attending a single festival this year.
When I went to Bonnaroo some many years ago, my priority was fashion—not function. I spent my days in delightfully bohemian crop tops and short shorts that made my butt look excellent—until they rode up so significantly they basically served as a second pair of underwear. The versatile gladiators I relied on to tie my outfits together split apart halfway through the fest, leaving me in something of a footwear rut. (But hey—Bonnaroo’s an alternately dusty or muddy experience, and I simply wasn’t prepared to sacrifice any of my clean AF sneakers to the festival gods.) I wore rainbow snapbacks, adorned my hair with flower crowns and layered on Free People jewelry. My looks were photogenic as hell—but my head got seriously hot and sweaty, and I’m just not the kind of person who can stand to bounce around in beaded shit all day. By the end of the four days, I was basically relying on sports bras, tie-dye tanks and Nike shorts—a far cry from the fashion-forward looks I’d mentally assembled, but a much more practical option that kept me from getting distracted by my clothing every 19 seconds.
I’ve been to a handful of festivals since then, and it’s become clear to me that the dichotomy between fashion and function is a false one—at least as far as festival clothes are concerned. The festival clothing selection is incredibly vast, and it’s full of pieces that are as practical as they are pretty (or weird, or statement-making, or breezy, or whatever other aesthetic you’re currently cultivating). Comfort and chic style are far from mutually exclusive; it’s entirely possible to craft a festival wardrobe fully of comfy clothes, and lightweight-yet-cozy necessities and head-turning looks. It’s, in fact, so possible (and so damn fun) that I’ve found myself planning festival outfits I won’t be able to wear any time soon—leaving you, dear reader, with a comprehensive guide to all the festival clothes worth shopping right now.
