Coachella festival fashion 202530 Images

Though it may be, first and foremost, a music festival, Coachella remains a continued source of intrigue for its fluctuating contributions to fashion. Over the past weekend, stars of various calibres descended on the Californian desert for this year’s edition, and with them brought their own propositions of what festival fashion should look like in 2025. As always, there was the good: on-stage style brought us strong fashion moments, from Tyla’s holey tights and hotpants combo, Kali Uchis’ burgundy leather corset, Addison’s Rae’s see-through prairie dress and Arca’s custom Rick Owens leather set.

Elsewhere, some seemed to confuse Coachella for Halloween, with T-Pain inexplicably dressed as some sort of steampunk train conductor, and Glorilla wearing a terrifying Guy Fawkes mask of her own face. And when it came to Anderson.Paak, we could excuse the nursing home crochet, but we drew the line at the novelty wig (sorry).

On the other side of the coin, Troye Sivan and Charli xcx proved that less is more in some devil-may-care casual fits, Julia Fox was up to her usual Getty Images collab, and Clairo oozed cool girl in a drop-waist pastel skirt. But taking the crown for most dressed celebrity was of course Lady Gaga, who successfully reheated her fashion nachos in a non-stop series of extravagant gags.

Overall, it was an assault on the senses, a chaotic miscellanea of styles that’s becoming harder to predict every year. On the whole, Coachella outfits are celebrity culture writ large, a litmus test of what “cool” and “famous” people think they should be wearing in front of the world, so it makes a lot of sense that none of it is making sense in these socially fractured times. Encompassing everything from the try-hards to the do-nothings, and the ones who manage to strike a successful balance between the two, scroll down for our pick of all the Coachella outfits you just have to see.
