Under the umbrella of today’s fashion trends, coachella style suits the typical bohemian-chic appearance, with trendy looks that can help in making the upcoming dance more memorable, along with the excitement of the night. However, such an ensemble, though, stretches from Perry’s typical dress code.

“We talked to Mr. Ames; we’re hoping that people are not being promiscuous…we did get the dress code knocked away a little bit,” states StuGo member Olivia Capranica.

Keeping that in mind, students should maintain the respect of the original dress code, but it is okay to stretch it with Coachella style.

StuGo adviser Brandon Keeling explained, “We understand there are certain styles that work with Coachella, but you have to be sure your outfits are appropriate.”

With that, students are allowed to dress in much of the Coachella attire. The boho-chic composition of clothes is a more flower child style that can relate to other past fashion trends such as the 1960-1970’s hippie-dress of Woodstock.

Woodstock was a music and art festival that marked the flowy hippie ensemble, with peace signs and bell-bottoms galore.

“So it’s kind of a new version of Woodstock. Really bohemian, really relaxed,” Capranica said.

There is an idea behind the desired fashion for the dance. Basic styles include high-waisted jeans, flowy shirts, back-strapped sandals, rompers, and any other comfy attire. Girls will also have the accessibility to wear crop-tops, high-waisted shorts and strapless tank-tops. Also, there is always the option to attend in lengthy beach or shorter summer dresses, along with the favored maxi skirts.

Guys also need to take the consideration of their outfits  in order to fit with the theme.

For guys,Capranica said that cut-off shorts, skinny jeans, summer shirts, crazy printed shirts, and joggers are the desired style.

Also, v-necks and blue jeans are definitely fitting for the occasion.

Both girls and guys can work the down-to-earth theme, each finding their own relaxing attire from stores such as Urban Outfitters, Forever 21, Tilly’s, and anywhere that provides comfy, boho-hip clothes. Patterns make all the difference as well, with a range of neon colors, lace or fringy extensions, and even aztec or tribal-like prints.

However, there are some no-nos if you want to avoid any fashion mishaps. Make sure to stay away from any eccentric headdresses, like the commonly worn Native American feathered featured in the actual festival, which can be culturally insensitive and impractical. Instead, stick with flower headbands and sun hats. It is okay to wear a lot of accessories that are colorful and fun, but do not to be excessive and obnoxious on the amount.

Multiple necklaces are a must have, ranging from long chains to authentic collar pieces. The more rings the merrier, with looks of turquoise stones, stunning diamond-jeweled rings, or even the simple ring band. Do not forget bracelets for a bold cuff bracelet or a couple of strewn wristbands always work in bringing the outfit together.

In addition, the Wiz Kalifa sunglasses and hipster shades are suitable for the event. However, there is no need for them since the dance is in the evening, but it never hurts to wear them just for the style. Finally, for both girls and guys, if you are wearing sandals, be sure to watch where you are stepping and note that your feet may become dirty from being outside. An alternative could be a pair of old sneakers, Toms, or boots, which all work perfectly for the occasion.

As long as students keep it mellow and relaxed, they will fit right in with Coachella’s exotic style.
