Weekend one of Coachella Music and Arts Festival is in full swing right now, and while the festival may at its heart still be about music and arts (we are just as excited as you are for BLACKPINK and Frank Ocean), it has also become something of an unofficial fashion summit, as much about the outfit stylings we see on and off the stages. Our social media feeds are brimming with perfectly performed iPhone photoshoots in barely-there bohemian getups, outfits planned for months to get that candid (but not really) shot.

And just like we had the Kate Moss' and Sienna Miller's of Glastonbury, popularising now ubiquitous festival garb like the humble Wellington boot, we have our Vanessa Hudgens' and Paris Hilton's of Coachella Valley, attendees pioneering what we consider to be 'festival fashion' each season – from flower crowns to crochet pants to face glitter and denim cutoffs. After a pandemic-induced break, Coachella was pretty quick to get back on its feet last year, and is proving this year that it's once again ready to put on a world-class event.

So, while we're tuning into that Coachella livestream to catch our favourite artists, we're just as eagerly lapping up the fashions on display across those picturesque, grassy green fields. The Californian desert can be unforgiving – from its sweltering hot days, to its cold desert night – and we've already been noticing a trend toward more 'casual' incognito fits from celebrity attendees, many of whom are placing function and comfort at the forefront of their sartorial choices this weekend – not a face gem or hot pant in sight. Others are still embracing the full bohemian ethos of Indio, California, donning flowing maxi dresses, lace-up leather pants and statement cowboy boots as they tromp across the desert. Whatever your flavour, we've compiled a list of some of our favourite looks from weekend one so far.

Check out our picks below.
