The Thigh Life > 10 Trending Festival Outfits to Wear This Year

Festival season is upon us! From now until fall, outdoor events will be happening across the globe — and you’ll need fun outfits to match. Festival fashion can range from casual to extravagant, baring a lot of skin or none at all. We’re giving you ten looks that’ll be big this year. Which one of these festival outfits would you wear?

Festival Outfits 2023

1. Casual Leopard

Band T-shirt? Check. Cute biker shorts? Check. This is the quintessential casual yet cool festival outfit in which you can comfortably sit, dance and walk around all day. Make this outfit even more fashionable by opting for animal print biker shorts instead of the typical black style.

 2. Sheer and Flowy

We’re seeing a lot of diaphanous materials trending for festival season, from sheer dresses to chiffon cardigans. The best way to balance something sheer is with something solid underneath, like a bodysuit, playsuit or a simple combo of shorts and a top. Merge whimsy and function by pairing  a plain black bathing suit top under a sheer sequin-adorned maxi kimono. Accessorize with a belt bag and combat boots for maximum comfort, without skimping on style. If you want a little extra coverage for sitting or when it gets chillier, our Staple shorts are perfect to wear over the bathing suit or underneath any sheer outfit for extra coverage.

3. Pretty in Pink

Pink is super popular this year and people are wearing this hue in all shades from pastel to fuchsia. This beautiful pale pink feather dress is an unexpectedly fluffy festival look, contrasting the rugged landscape of the desert. Go all out and pair your 'fit with a pair of cowboy boots.

4. Neon Green

 A flowy dress in a neon color is ideal to wear on a sunny festival day. Choose one with a cinched waist, some unique tie-details and a sexy low-cut front. Go for comfort with black combat boots that’ll look great while walking the grounds or dancing up a storm to your favorite artist. Tip: If you get a little sweaty or chilly, our layerable, super soft Original shorts will keep your legs from chafing or getting too cold.

5. Green Set

Just like pink, green is in, too! Go for a more alternative look with a pair of pleated pants and a button down paired with a crochet top. This is the perfect day-to-night outfit as you can wear the button down open during the day to show off your midriff, then cover things up once the sun goes down and the breezy night air hits. Our Cooling shorts would be excellent under this kind of festival outfit, absorbing any excess heat from the sun to keep your body cool.

6. Sparkle Sparkle

We’re loving the revival of the Y2K bandeau tube dress, especially one with added bling embroidery and tassels. The dress may say princess, but the combat boots and black accessories say badass. During the day, this dress will glitter in the sun and reflect all of the neon lights at night.

 7. Maximize the Maxi 

Maxi skirts are absolutely everywhere this season and we have one outfit that takes the trend to the next level. Get yourself a maxi skirt with an extremely high slit and colorful print for an eye-catching look. Accessorize with fingerless gloves, a colorful hat and tassel handbag to nail that edgy boho vibe. And, of course, anchor the look with a trendy pair of cowboy boots.

8. Bridal Vibes

Boho meets bridal is a big trend for cute festival outfits this year (imagine an updated version of Madonna’s “Like a Virgin” look). Layer two sheer white skirts over each other and pair them with a corset-style top, just like influencer Lauren Wolfe. Pulls the festival outfit together with a coin-style belt, reflective sunnies and the obligatory cowboy boots.

9. Feathers and Denim

We love an extra festival look and this feather ‘fit is fabulous. Pair yours with a completely open maxi skirt (we told you those are everywhere!), cosmic bikini bottoms and denim boots, for a double-take-worthy look. Deck your hair out with pearls for an additional touch..

10. You’ve Got (Chain)Mail

This one is for the festival goers who like to show some skin — a disco-ball-style chainmail dress. The low-back is sexy and this barely-there outfit perfect for a scorching festival day. Wear the dress with cowboy boots (what else?) and a clear backpack for a futuristic fashion look.
