Festival season is finally here and whether you’re dancing the day away in the UK’s muddy fields or jetting off to a sunny festival abroad, you’ll want to look your best.
Pinterest Trends show searches for ‘music festival fashion’ hit their twelve-month peak at the end of May, so renowned global lifestyle brand Nautica has named the five key pieces that are essential for festival goers this summer, to help inspire your festival field fits.
Bucket Hats
Nautica Aral Reversible Bucket Hat – Black/Orange
As seen on Tyler, The Creator during his Coachella set earlier in 2023 and becoming a festival staple in recent years, the bucket hat continues to be a popular choice for festival fanatics this summer. Stylish and practical, these hats will keep you protected from the sun and finish off any look.
Shorts
Nautica Knox 4” Swim Short – Blue
One for the warmer weather, a good pair of shorts is an effortless way to both keep and look cool. Depending on your desired festival vibe, choose edgier streetwear options to wear with graphic tees, or smarter chino styles to pair with printed shirts.
Graphic Tees
Nautica Competition Bonavista T-Shirt – White
A great all-year-round piece, graphic tees are also ideal for festival season. Practical for the summer’s warmer temperatures, a short sleeve graphic tee can help to add that final flair to your festival fit; look out for those with oversized logos and images on either the front or back for full effect.
Printed Shirts
Nautica Jasper SS Shirt – Dark Navy
Printed shirts are the perfect way to express your style. Choose colourful or bold prints – like Lewis Hamilton wearing his abstract print oversized shirt at Coachella – and wear them buttoned up on their own, or open over the top of a tee for the ultimate effortless festival outfit.
Windbreaker Jackets
Nautica Competition Delvin Jacket – Yellow
With the UK weather being unpredictable at best, festival goers are often left wet and feeling the chill. Windbreaker jackets are one of Nautica’s bestsellers and the perfect solution to the weather, offering an extra layer of warmth, waterproofing from any showers and being lightweight enough to tie around your waist during the day.
