Coachella season is around the corner, and what better way to kick things off than by revisiting some of the most iconic festival looks for inspiration?
From Coachella mainstays like Kylie Jenner and Vanessa Hudgens to more recent memorable style moments from Megan Fox and Gabriette, consider these iconic Coachella outfits as your ultimate moodboard. One thing’s for sure, we’re already counting down to the party of the year.
Vanessa Hudgens (2012)
Vanessa Hudgens was the queen of Coachella before there was a queen of Coachella. Her boho look, consisting of flower crowns, bangles, and a mesh cardigan, remains one of the most iconic Coachella looks to this day.
Selena Gomez (2014)
While partying with the Jenners, Selena Gomez wore a boho-inspired, flowy dress in white. For accessories, she opted for a wide-brimmed hat and brown sunglasses.
Zoë Kravitz (2015)
Ever the effortlessly cool dresser, Zoë Kravitz wore a plaid romper before accessorising with combat boots, bold piercings, and a statement choker.
Kendall Jenner (2016)
Coachella 2016 remains a defining moment in festival fashion, where carefree bohemia met the rise of influencer-driven style. So naturally, she paired her butter yellow see-through knitted dress with a silver statement necklace. Her hair was in double-buns, and she wore round sunglasses for extra retro style points.
Rihanna (2018)
Minimalism might not exist in Rihanna’s world. For her festival look, the singer layered a striped collared shirt with an off-white sweatshirt. The finishing touches were snake-print pants and boots.
Taylor Hill (2018)
For the Coachella poolside party, Victoria’s Secret Angel and supermodel Taylor Hill wore a yellow ruffled off-shoulder top with a floral print. It perfectly encapsulated 2018’s fashion.
Alessandra Ambrosio (2023)
Alessandra Ambrosio flaunted the signature Coachella bohemian flair with a pair of cut-out burnt-orange pants and a cream lace top. She topped it with a statement belt and wooden wedge heels.
Megan Fox (2024)
Channelling Western country grunge, Megan Fox wore an oversized Nirvana shirt with thigh-high boots, a leather jacket, and a cowboy hat. Her flashy blue hair added a cool pop of colour.
Taylor Swift (2024)
In between stops during her Eras Tour, Taylor Swift used Coachella as an opportunity to unwind with her boyfriend and friends. They even caught Ice Spice’s performance – the two had previously collaborated on Swift’s Karma remix. Keeping it low-key, she opted for a comfy tank top and shorts, elevated with a biker jacket and a New Heights cap.
Gabriette (2025)
Crowned as one of the “Apple Girls” during Charli XCX’s Coachella performance, model Gabriette donned a sheer black lace dress, channelling her gothic and carefree persona.
