There’s no pairing quite like music and fashion, and is there a better runway than the mud soaked fields of Glastonbury

Last year we were treated to the sartorial delights of Sienna Miller in Scandi-chic, Dua Lipa in 2004-coded Versace, and the one and only Shania Twain in show stopping florals.

Glastonbury staples like Hunter wellies and Barbour jackets were seen on many an attendee, alongside lashings of leopard print and 00s favourite, the chain belt. 

But these are 6 of our favourite standout Glastonbury inspired trends that we’ll be sporting all summer long...

Where Alexa goes, we follow, and we adore this iteration of a slip dress that leans away from slinky, paired with a trusty Barbour. Put it this way, your Grandma would wholeheartedly approve.

You simply can't talk about Glastonbury without mentioning the style icon that is Kate Moss and her iconic 00s fits to the festival. It's hard to pick a standout moment, but this micro shorts and waistcoat combo is a piece of fashion history in its own right.

Now this is how to do festival-wear  with aplomb. We adored capes worn by Shania Twain and Janelle Monae on the famous Glastonbury stages, but accept that they might be considered slightly impractical for the 9-5, so we'll be slipping a top or accessory into our wardrobe rotation instead,

Why you should trust me?

Working in fashion is simultaneously the best and worst thing that’s ever happened to me because spending all day surrounded by gorgeous pieces and trends lit a fire under my (already substantial) shopping habit. I love to shop. I live to shop, and summer ensembles are my jam. In a previous life, I worked in Personal Shopping, and I’m the person to take out with you if you want to be wholeheartedly talked into a purchase.
