Festival Dressing so far in 2010......

Okay so I know everyone is writing about the fashion at this year’s festivals, but here at 4couture.com we decided that we had to give some credit to some of the celebs who perhaps haven’t been praised as much as the usual suspects for their fashion efforts. Let me emphasize the word ‘effort’ as we have to make the point that none of these celebrities put their outfits together that morning as many like to make out. Anyway, here are our top 3 unsung festival fashion heroines so far this year...

Corine Bailey Rae looked so lovely backstage at Glastonbury, her playsuit was casual and simple but perfect for the occasion and combined with a cute pair of pumps and black-out sunglasses, she looks bang on trend but really laid back.

Jo Whiley went for a simpler look as well, sporting a feminine floral maxi. We love her studded bag but think maybe she could’ve given the outfit an edge with a matching studded but such as this one by HTC at http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/60878.



We also loved T4’s Jameela Jamil’s look this year at Glasto. It’s not easy to pull of short lace leggings and most people don’t do it well but Jameela shows that they can really make an outfit. The addition of the coloured scarf works well against the black and we love her trilby. Grab your own like this one on ASOS for only £15, http://tiny.cc/3n6ix.


We’ve praised 3 celebs who we think looked great at festivals so far this year, but it has to be said that as usual, not everyone got it right. Whoever styled The Saturdays onstage this year at the Isle of Wight festival didn’t do it well. Their outfits looked like a massive clash of colour which just didn’t work. The playsuit/boots combo could have worked but the patterns on the playsuits, designed by brand Traffic People, were too busy with so many of them together. We thought that the girls would have gone for an edgy, classic festival look which they often do quite well, but this year they just stood out for all the wrong reasons and in our opinion were miles behind the likes of Kate Moss and Florence Welch in the style stakes.


Let us know who you think has looked fab at the festivals so far this year and who’s failed to make the grade via Twitter at www.twitter.com/4couture.
