Ever stand in front of your jam-packed closet, staring at more than enough clothing options, and think: I have nothing to wear? Same. But perhaps the issue isn’t that you’re out of viable outfit choices. You just need a fresh dose of inspiration — say: festival outfit ideas — to help you see your wardrobe in a new way. That’s where Outfit Dump comes in. We supply you with enough ideas to fuel your style until the next drop comes along.
Festival season is upon us, and it’s kicking off with what is arguably one of the most fashion-forward events: Coachella 2024. Celebs, influencers, and music lovers are all descending upon the desert of Southern California, offering us months worth of outfit inspo in the process. hot-weather wardrobe.
From breezy button-downs and caftans to wearable takes on the biggest Y2K trends (think rosette appliqués and baggy silhouettes), there’s lots to love in the world of festival fashion right now. So we’ve rounded up some top festival looks from the Coachella Valley and beyond to inspire your approach to summer dressing this season.
Because any music festival should be your time to shine as brightly as the acts on stage.
Take a page from Olivia Rodrigo’s on-stage fashion, and hit up your chosen festival in a pair of trendy hot pants — bedazzled or not. You can also style them with a pair of personality-forward tights for both the aesthetic and extra protection from the elements.
Not only is a crochet mini dress colorful and fun, but it’ll also keep you cool during a long day spent outdoors (and is easy to layer with should you need to). Extra points here for the red cowboy boots — yeehaw!
Lean into the Western trend with fringed, well, everything. Go head-to-toe fringe, or, if you want to be slightly more subtle, make one fringed piece the star of your outfit.
Western-inspired fashion has long been a pillar of Coachella fashion, but we have entered the golden age of the festival cowgirl. We love these bright red, butterfly motif cowboy boots paired with a simple feminine skirt-and-tank combo.
Make your cowboy boots poolside party ready by wearing them alongside a brightly colored swimsuit, sheer skirt, and sparkling Western-style hat.
If the thought alone of wearing leather in the summer has you breaking a sweat, then look away — because two-piece sets in the durable fabric (and/or its vegan alternatives) are proving to be fashion’s glossiest outfit formula for the season ahead.
Not feeling the boots? Cowboy hats are still very much a festival staple that can be recycled for a great horse girl fashion moment this summer, but it’s the floret, shoulder-bearing top here that’s really caught our attention (swipe right for a closer look).
Looking to style your easiest, breeziest button-down this summer? Wear it open over a black bikini top and some jeans.
Make your best one-piece swimsuit your hottest summer ‘fit — just add sneakers instead of water.
Gen-Z style queen Storm Reid is paying homage to the early-2000s scarf top trend, and we’re not mad about it.
Leopard print is the neutral of 2024 (really!), which makes it a no-brainer for your festival looks this season. But if you want to stand out from the crowd even more, you could also try a different animal print (like tiger, zebra, or cow) in an array of bold colors.
Wondering if you’re overdoing it on the florals? Fear not, fashion friends. There’s simply no such thing.
We’re all about this bra top and belly chain pairing. Extra points for the butterfly motif necklace.
Haven’t you heard? The early aughts are back in fashion. So, the more butterflies, the merrier…
Haven’t you heard? The early aughts are back in fashion. So, the more butterflies, the merrier…especially in the form of the Dua Lipa-approved butterfly top.
Consider this a masterclass in dressing down a sparkly kaftan by adding some chunky sneakers and funky patterned socks to the mix.
Black bow, black boots, and a baby doll dress. Now there’s a sweet and summery outfit trifecta if we ever did see one.
No back? No problem. Summer is the unofficial season of exposed skin, after all.
Yes, it was the neon mini dress here that caught our eye, but it’s those ultra-on-trend platform flip-flops that got us staring.
Let’s face it: You’re going to need some form of comfort while standing on your feet all weekend. Pick your favorite pair of chunky sneakers, style the rest of your outfit around them, dance away, and thank us later.
We’re calling it: the denim mini vest will continue to dominate.
Or you could go full-on Canadian Tuxedo (but make it desert-friendly).
White tank top — baggy jeans — midriff — belt. Leave it to Hailey Bieber to demonstrate an easy summer outfit formula that’ll last a lifetime.
Too hot for your fave pair of baggy jeans? Try: baggy jorts!
Let’s normalize wearing practical, weather-proof shoes as a major fashion statement, please.
Friendly reminder that you can re-wear your 2020 tie-dye attire outside of the house, too.
Take all the frolicky, flirty, festival-y appeal of a tiered dress and balance something a bit more hardcore, like this leather harness.
Just because maxi skirts are trending doesn’t mean you should be ditching your favorite mini.
Case in point. For an even more festival-approved look, pair the mini with cowboy boots.
