When it comes to festival fashion, [1] no one does it quite like the UK. At England's best summer music festivals, don't expect to see flower crowns or Woodstock-inspired outfits. Instead, it's all about chunky boots, low-waisted trousers, and enough double-denim to shake a stick at. We've searched through the best celebrity fashion moments from past music festivals and found a ton of classic music festival outfits that we bet you'll copy at least once this summer.
Joining the trifecta of wellies, short shorts, and raincoats [2] are a few pieces that are equally worthy of praise. Expect to see ABBA-inspired looks, subtle fringe details, and a whole lotta crochet, as well as the already-loved Barbiecore trend [3] – inspired by the upcoming "Barbie" movie by Greta Gerwig [4].
Kate Moss [5] might have set the standard for the minidress and knee-high boots look at Glasto, but corset tops a la Maya Jama are all the rage, too. Plus, if TikTok trends are anything to go by, we're expecting a resurgence of 90s fashion trends [6], and for a new wave of "coastal cowgirl" [7] vibes to hit the festival campsites this 2023.
Ahead of Glastonbury Festival 2023, keep reading for the best celebrity music festival outfits to inspire your summer looks.
