Recommended festival outfits (1–10)
band T-shirt

A tee from the festival headliner, your favorite act, or a legendary band you love? These days they’re popular as fashion items too, so anything goes.
Wear a shirt from a more niche band and you might even make friends with people who share your taste.
Hippie style

It may not be suitable for intense music festivals dominated by rock bands, but it’s a great outfit choice for more mature events like Fuji Rock or dance music festivals.
twinning outfits

It really builds the excitement as the festival approaches.
Live kids & street style with Dickies half pants

Flashy, colorful ones are popular with live-show kids, but classic, subdued colors like beige, black, and navy are also recommended.
Pair them with Converse or VANS sneakers and striped knee-high socks for a street or skater-inspired look.
They’re perfect for outdoor fests thanks to their ease of movement, and in colder seasons you can layer them with tights or leggings, too.
band hoodie

Wearing a hoodie from your favorite band definitely boosts your mood.
Plus, depending on the season of the festival, the temperature can drop suddenly in the evening, so a hoodie is great as a layer for regulating your body temperature.
T-shirt remake
Here are some recommended ways to remake T-shirts for people who want to really stand out at summer festivals.
If you want to add individuality to your festival fashion, many people join in outfits they’ve remade themselves.
You can try a mesh-like look, add fringes, turn a crew neck into a V-neck, cut off the sleeves to make a tank top… With a little creativity, you can make it truly original!
Patterned men's shorts
When it comes to classic shorts for summer festivals, Dickies are trending, but patterned shorts are cute too! It’s also fun to look for unique shorts while considering the balance of your outfit with your top, like a T-shirt.
