Fashion + Festivals
For July 2021, we're exploring the fundamental role fashion plays in the festival experience, how different cultural festivals incorporate fashion in tradition and how festival fashion impacts our planet.

Ah warm summer nights, loud music, dancing in fields with your friends, excessive amounts of glitter, and a city of tents...must be festival season! Festival fashion throws the fashion rule book out the window, as we switch up everyday attire for flares, neons, harnesses, mesh, sparkle and anything that allows us to transform ourselves! Festival fashion is a playground for creativity and expression. The phenomenon of festival fashion is arguably symbolic of progressive youth culture, as festival goers are liberated to dress however they please and dance away any stress or worries of the ‘real world’.
