These Iconic Outfits Our Favorite Celebrities Wore to Coachella


Coachella is a popular music festival in Cali, drawing attendees from all over the world. Famous celebrities are among the dedicated festival-goers, sporting their unique and ever-so-stylish outfits. We’ve compiled a list of the most memorable outfits from this years event. Fashion fabs and fails round out the list for 2018.


The popular music festival is a 4-day event, split into two consecutive weekends. Tickets for the highly sought-after event sell out quickly, and don’t come cheap. People travel from all over the globe to attend the music event of the season. For LA based celebrities, the drive isn’t bad, but for those coming from Australia, China, and Japan, to name a few, the trek is legendary. The event is held at the Coachella Valley in the Colorado Desert. Celebs become one with nature, lounging in the grass all day, taking in the sounds of the performances. The event takes place in April, a beautiful time of year in Cali, well I guess all year boasts amazing weather!

Celebrities view the event as a time to flaunt their stuff, similar to a red carpet event, their outfits known to push boundaries. Most choose a boho-inspired look to adhere to the surrounding natural elements, but others choose to shock with truly unique get-ups. Crop tops, cowboy hats, and flowers galore are not uncommon to see among the lot. Oh, and let’s not forget high-waisted jean shorts and crotchet. Attendees claim the outfit is the most important part, planning their attire for the event months before. Sounds like prom, or your wedding! These festival-goers are taking no prisoners.

I would go just to be able to hang with the rich and famous of Hollywood, I mean hello, Rihanna, greetings Kendall Jenner! Who knows, I may even be lucky enough to score a selfie with these famous celebrities. See you in 2019, Coachella.

Kendall Jenner

Crochet is never going to go out of style, especially not during music festival season. Model Kendall Jenner definitely knew this when she wore a beautiful crochet-knit dress back in 2016.

She accessorized the iconic outfit with layers of chunky jewelry, round retro sunglasses, and strappy sandals. Let’s not forget about those twin buns that completed the look!

Kourtney Kardashian

The athleisure look sure is going strong and the Kardashians, as always, are on top of it. Kourtney might have the figure to pull it off but the ‘fit makes it look like she’s headed to the gym.

Kourtney Kardashian

The Kardashian sister was wearing this as she watched the 2018 Coachella sets alongside Kendall, Kim, and Kylie. It might be from Yeezy’s latest collection but it still looks like it’s better suited for a spinning class.

Nicki Minaj

Nicki Minaj has never been one to shy away from taking fashion risks and the whole world knows it. The rapper, singer, and singer performed her set decked out in this revealing leopard ensemble.

And how iconic is that face chain she’s wearing? While we would not wear this ourselves, there is a lot to say about her creativity. This is definitely a look for the books!

Winnie Harlow

Winnie Harlow first made a name for herself as a contestant on the reality TV show America’s Next Top Model. After her appearance, the fashion industry was quick to propel her into fame.

Below, you can see the model kicking it back by the pool at Coachella 2018. The black lace ensemble is both elegant and chic. We love it!

Beyonce

No one ever expects Queen B to disappoint. Luckily, she delivered at the 2018 Coachella in more ways than one. She impressed the crowds with her incredible performance.

Beyonce

To top it off, she shocked fans when other Destiny Child members Kelly and Michelle performed alongside her. This afro-inspired get-up certainly made her look even more like the royalty that she is!

Katy Perry

Katy, Katy, Katy. While music festivals are definitely more accepting of more creative outfits, we’re not sure that this was what the people had in mind.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry

A fashion risk might be a step in the right direction, but overdoing it is a fashion faux. The retro sunglasses, splattered neon dress, and those pink shoes look nothing short of a disaster if you ask us.

Sofia Richie

Sofia Richie decided to attend the festival in yet another athleisure get-up. The model rocked a pair of Vans, satin tracksuit trousers, and a white bikini top. She definitely looked comfortable and stylish as she hung out by the pool along with other A-listers.

Richie more recently became a household name after getting involved with Scott Disick. Do you think she ran into any of the Kardashians? How awkward must that have been!

Amber Rose

We all know that the buxom beauty is fond of flaunting her admirable physique. Amber Rose’s head-turning figure was further accentuated by her outfit during the 2018 festival.

Amber Rose

Amber Rose

The 34-year-old model looked absolutely gorgeous in an eye-popping electric jumpsuit. She is rather well-known for her striking festival outfits and she sure delivered!

Bella Thorne

Former child star Bella Thorne wore a rather revealing get-up during the 2017 Coachella. Her see-through dress did nothing to obscure her bra and panties.

Bella Thorne

Bella Thorne

She topped the look off with a glossy silver cap, some face jewels, and a pair of large, pink earrings. With a body like that, we bet that no outfit is considered to be off-limits.

Cardi B

Cardi B was quickly propelled to rap and hip-hop stardom for her talent and beauty. The musician is undoubtedly confident, daring, and talented.

Cardi B

Cardi B

All of these characteristics show in her wardrobe choices as well. She decided to go for an Andy Warhol tribute by wearing overalls with his Marilyn Monroe prints. While this is not a look that everyone can pull off, Cardi B certainly did!

French Montana

French Montana was also present during Coachella 2018. The rapper donned matching jacket and pants that displayed a pattern of palm trees.

French Montana

Of course, he did not go without his signature accessories of gold chains. We definitely like the overall effect. It might be simple and casual, but it is undeniably full of personality. Win!

Jamie Foxx

Jamie Foxx just never seems to grow old, does he? The actor is one to keep up with the trend, as is evident by this fashion choice.

Jamie Foxx

You can see the actor wearing a scorpion-printed air mask, a red bomber jacket, trendy jeans, and chunky combat boots. Age is nothing if you look fashionable all the time!

Beyonce

Is it any surprise to find Queen B on the list for the second time? Her performance during the 2018 Coachella thrilled the festival-goers, but so did her wardrobe changes!

Beyonce

Here you can see Beyonce wearing a memorable black leather get-up as she performed the hit song “Formation” on stage.

Katy Perry

Katy Perry has always been known for her adventurous fashion sense, though the results aren’t always favorable.

Katy Perry

Just take a look at this white mesh dress and bikini combo that she completed with bunny shoes and a furry bag. We love her boldness and confidence but we’ll have to say ‘no’ to this outfit!

Gigi Hadid

The nostalgia for the 90’s is definitely something we can get behind! This is especially true when someone like model Gigi Hadid is decked out in all of its glory.

The blonde beauty can be seen hanging out with Jeremy Scott while rocking an over-sized patterned silk shirt secured with a gold Moschino belt.

Katy Perry

As a constant festival-goer, Katy Perry and her wardrobe choices have always been under the spotlight. However, this is a look that will not make our favorites list.

Katy Perry

We’re glad she’s dressing as she sees it. However, that doesn’t grant the musician any immunity from fashion critics.

Jared Leto

The rock musician-turned-actor is actually a regular at the music festival. Earlier this year, he decided to go to Coachella in a printed red shirt, dark sunnies, and a tropical hat.

If he thought he looked inconspicuous, he definitely does not!

Nazanin Mandi

The gorgeous model recently made waves when she got engaged to rapper Miguel. Nazanin Mandi went to Coachella 2018 rocking this adorable red two-piece suit that showed off her beautiful physique.

Of course, she topped the look off with cat-eyed retro sunglasses for the perfect summer addition. This picture was made even more perfect by the matching inflatable pool animal!

Jonas Brothers

Who didn’t adore these talented pop star brothers as tweens? They might no longer be as innocent as before, but they certainly look as good as ever.

Jonas Brothers

Jonas Brothers

We’re sure you’ll agree that Joe nailed the animal-printed shirt and shoes! Nick, on the other hand, looked quite dapper even when dressed in palm tree-printed overalls.

Halsey

We all know that singer-songwriter Halsey is always up for a fashion statement. The ripped jeans and fishnet tights combo worked perfectly for the talented artist.

Halsey

The matching pink hair and sports bra worked wonders as well!

Amber Rose

As the old adage goes, if you got it, flaunt it! Amber Rose certainly knows this truism. The model showed off her curves in this brightly-colored suit that she matched with a pair of fashion-forward shades.

We’re sure that you won’t be able to lose her in the crowds!

Matt Bellamy

Muse frontman Matt Bellamy went with a steampunk look for the music festival.

We admire his innovative fashion choices, but we’re sure that it won’t appeal to everyone.

Kendrick Lamar

The Pulitzer award-winning rapper lit up the stage decked out in a very interesting ensemble. For his performance, he wore an all-white two-piece suit that was both simple and elegant.

Kendrick Lamar

While the crowds loved him, we daresay that the ‘fit made him look like he was about to deliver a sermon, instead of some sick beats.

Rita Ora

Rita Ora definitely looks like the cherry on top, doesn’t she? The British musician looked amazing in her Coachella outfit!

Rita Ora

Rita Ora

The playful cherry pattern did wonders for her figure and the stylish pair of sunnies made her look ready for the summer. Great job, Rita!

Bella Hadid

The other Hadid sister is also bringing some nineties fashion trends back to the mainstream!

Bella decided to secure her hair with a scrunchie and it sure looks wonderful on her.

Rihanna

Rihanna is easily one of the best-dressed celebrities in this day and age. The award-winning artist wowed fans when she attended Coachella 2017 in this bizarre ensemble. She rocked a full-body suit that was covered in Swarovski crystals.

Rihanna

Rihanna

She layered it with denim shorts, a Gucci top, and trendy sunnies. Though it was undeniably an unorthodox choice, Ri-Ri just doesn’t disappoint!

Ruby Rose

Here’s another celebrity who is well-known for her eclectic style. DJ and actress Ruby Rose definitely exceeded expectations when she performed her set in this interesting jacket.

We’re sure it would make us look like poultry, but the gorgeous artist was able to pull it off without a hitch!

FKA Twigs

The talented musician showed up on stage with a rather futuristic look! Her unconventional eyebrow makeup and embroidered poncho-like shirt were definitely eye-catching.

While it’s not something we’d personally wear, it was certainly a memorable appearance.

Ashley Graham

Plus-size model Ashley Graham looked nothing short of stunning when she attended the festival in this outfit.

There’s definitely a Greek goddess feel to it, don’t you think? The simple face makeup, the elegant choker, and gold wrap only show that beauty doesn’t have to be flashy.

Nicki Minaj

The talented rapper is well-known for her shocking wardrobe choices and this colorful ensemble definitely fits the bill. Doesn’t it remind you of balloon animals from children’s parties?

Nicki Minaj

We’re not sure what’s going on here, but we don’t think we like it.

Jeremy Scott

Top fashion designer Jeremy Scott decided to stick with a low-key outfit for Coachella. He rocked a Moschino jacket, denim cut-offs, and a basketball jersey.

Jeremy Scott

Jeremy Scott

We daresay that the look won’t be complete without the champagne cup in his hand and the crown on his head!

Tinashe

Not everyone can pull off a denim on denim ensemble, but we’re lucky that Tinashe is in the minority! She capped the look off with dark sunnies, layered necklaces, and desert-style booties.

Tinashe

Tinashe

We’re sure that she would look amazing in anything, but this outfit makes her look on fire!

Lady Gaga

Did you think the list would be complete without even a single mention of Lady Gaga? Of course not. The pop idol impressed festival-goers when she went up on stage in her biker chic attire.

The leather material gives off an S&M vibe, but fans will never fail to eat up whatever looks this fashion genius serves us!

Erykah Badu

Erykah Badu’s creative nude dress was the talk of the town! It was a piece created by L.A. based fashion designer Huguette Calant as a tribute to girl power.

Erykah Badu

We’re not big fans of the top hat, however, as it makes the ensemble look more appropriate for a Halloween party. We know that Erykah can do better than this!

Ashlee Simpson

Ashlee Simpson looked phenomenal in this biker-chic inspired two piece. The pattern looks wonderful when paired with those red and blue leggings.

Ashlee Simpson

Ashlee Simpson

The singer might have retired from performing, but she is still a welcome sight at music festivals!

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner opted for a different look during Coachella 2018’s second weekend. She decided to wear a hot pink wig and a tan leather ensemble, attending the festival with the rest of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters.

She looks fantastic, period. We bet you’ll be more impressed if you learned that she just gave birth to her firstborn child around this time!

Kendall Jenner

The top model always looks gorgeous even without trying. Here you’ll see Kendall flaunting her physique in a shimmery crop top and arm cuffs.

Kendall Jenner

She completed the look with a felt hat on her head and a set of chokers around her neck. However, it’s her smile that makes the picture even more endearing!

Kylie Jenner

She might be the youngest Kardashian-Jenner daughter, but it’s safe to say that she is no longer a baby. Kylie looks amazing in this short purple wig, don’t you think?

Kylie Jenner

Let’s not forget about the snakeskin crop top and skirt combo. The whole attire easily joins the ranks of our favorite Coachella looks! The trendsetter very rarely disappoints us with her fashion choices.

She was certainly eye-catching in this nineties-inspired all-white ensemble. The unique hair color was also a sight for sore eyes!

They already made the list individually, but Jeremy Scott and Rita Ora look amazing together as well!

Jeremy Scott’s ethnic-looking jacket and hip-hop cap are envy-inducing, whereas, Rita looks fab in her all-gold attire.

The newspaper-printed two-piece ensemble and dark sunnies are a match made in heaven. Whoever said that style and comfort are mutually exclusive?

Chanel Iman

Chanel Iman seems to have found the best accessory for the festival season. The body chain truly helped accentuate her gorgeous body, didn’t it?

Chanel Iman

Chanel Iman

The young model decided to pair the revealing outfit with a pair of knee-high boots and trendy sunglasses. We’re sure that you’ll agree when we say that this is a great choice for Coachella!

Drake

We bet that the award-winning rapper must have had a hard time evading the limelight even without this puffy yellow vest! This piece looks rather similar to his iconic “Hotline Bling” outfit, doesn’t it?

Drake

Drake

The brightly-colored outerwear must have made him the center of attention during the music festival. However, it’s a little too similar to life jackets for our liking.

Rihanna

Rihanna is one of the most iconic artists in the entertainment industry. Her beautiful face is obscured by the ski mask in this photo, but regardless, she looks amazing in the bold ensemble.

Rihanna

Rihanna

Who knew that snakeskin trousers, a striped button-up, and an oversized sweater would look so good together?

Paris Hilton

Can you believe that Paris Hilton is already 37 years old? We can’t either, to be honest.

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton

The hotel chain heiress is a regular at the summer festival and she never fails to deliver some interesting looks. Just take a look at this colorful outfit she’s wearing here. That’s hot!

Miley Cyrus

Former child star Miley Cyrus is no longer the innocent girl-next-door that we came to love during her Disney days. While she is toning it down these days, how can we ever forget her rebellious phase?

Miley Cyrus

Miley Cyrus

That era was full of some wild fashion choices and this look was no exception. It might be Moschino, but let us not forget that designer clothes can still be a fashion faux.

Ariel Winter

Sometimes, we have a hard time distinguishing actors from their onscreen personas, but you won’t make the same mistake with Ariel Winter! She is nothing like the wholesome Alex from Modern Family.

Ariel Winter

Ariel Winter

The young star is a lot more fashion-forward and confident than the character she portrays. The long, pink hair you can see below is definitely a look to remember!

Vanessa Hudgens

When talking about boho fashion styles, no one will ever beat actress Vanessa Hudgens. The brunette beauty is practically the poster child for music and arts festivals!

Rihanna makes the list yet again! However, we have some mixed feelings about this all-brown outfit of hers. You’ll find this photo on her Instagram feed and millions of fans seem to approve of her attire.

Rihanna

When it comes to fashion, Ri-Ri proves that she’s a force to be reckoned with! It’s simply not fashionable until the singer wears it.

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner has already been able to reach an impressive level of success at the tender age of 20! She is not one to shy away from showing off her gorgeous curves.

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner

We’re jealous at how quickly she was able to regain her body after giving birth to Stormi Webster. She donned this black skin-tight playsuit during Coachella 2018 and it looked fantastic on her.

Paris Hilton

The socialite looked beautiful as always as she walked through the throngs of festival attendees. However, we’re not too sold on her choice of wardrobe.

Paris Hilton

Paris Hilton

The bright and revealing dress was perfectly boho-chic, but maybe she should have saved the cat ears for Halloween.

Bella Thorne

Bella Thorne is another familiar face on the music festival scene. The young Hollywood star is regularly caught on camera donning revealing get-ups like this one.

Bella Thorne

Here you will see the actress rocking a bright purple wig, a fanny pack, and patched shorts.

She looked iconic dressed in fishnet stockings, short shorts, knee-high boots, and butterfly wings. We’re having a hard time imagining a way to top this look!

Kylie Jenner

Kylie Jenner deserves an award for all the memorable festival looks she’s been serving us! The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star is really big on hair risks as well, it seems. This colorful mermaid braid look is nothing short of gorgeous.

She is truly a trendsetter, especially when you factor in the revealing bikini that she’s wearing here. We’re already excited for the festival outfits she’ll cook up next year!
