Another Coachella is gone, and no matter how you feel about the obscenely expensive music festival, one thing’s for sure: The stage fashion is the best part of the event. Life & Style Editor Ashley Sanchez and Assistant Photography Editor Lianna Amoruso are here to walk you through the looks from the good, bad and worm-like (in no particular order).
Blackpink
Lianna: Slayed. House down, screaming, crying, throwing up. Literally there are no other words to describe the entire performance.
Ashley: HOTTER than the desert.
Yaeji
Ashley: The theme is layers, from the hair to the fit, and that’s what is making this look work.
Lianna: It’s giving Rey from Star Wars.
Blondie
Lianna: We love a grunge cowboy moment.
Ashley: I agree – this would’ve slayed at last year’s Dillo.
Becky G
Ashley: I’m speechless … muy vaquerita moderna (very modern cowgirl).
Lianna: This also would’ve slayed at last year’s Dillo.
Bad Bunny
Ashley: It’s giving Heidi Klums’ worm costume.
Lianna: I love you, Bad Bunny, but this did not slay as hard as it should have.
Zendaya
Lianna: She slayed, of course, for her first time performing in seven years. The outfit is giving watered-down Euphoria.
Ashley: Rue if she slayed.
Labrinth
Ashley: The belt accents, plus the leather pants, give this fit an edgy Coachella vibe instead of a boring all-black outfit.
Lianna: Another example of how layering something cool on top of something bland just elevates a fit. Love.
Rosalía
Ashley: Now this is a boring all-black outfit. Like ok, Terminator.
Lianna: Agreed – she didn't take notes from Labrinth's fit.
Danny Lux
Ashley: Primary colors…
Lianna: Giving The Wiggles. You know which one.
boygenius
Ashley: I like the suits. I don’t like how the outfits are so bland.
Lianna: I like the simplicity. Slay.
Idris Elba
Ashley: Is this his retirement hobby?
Lianna: I mean, a classic fit for chic dad on vacation.
Ashley: A simple fit for a simple man.
Jackson Wang
Lianna: I am gagged.
Ashley: I respect that he simply used his concert wardrobe for Coachella. Reduce, reuse, recycle.
Ciara
Lianna: Unicorn hair and a futuristic outfit to match Jackson's unhinged production.
Ashley: Her outfit encapsulates her radiance … but in a more slightly unhinged way.
Latto
Lianna: She understood the assignment. 10000/10
Ashley: Cunty cowboy vibes
Burna Boy
Lianna: Cool silhouette, but I don't think it gave what it needed to give.
Ashley: At first this outfit looks boring, but the closer you get into the details, the cooler it gets. He’s so cool.
Charli XCX
Lianna: Best believe she's still Bejeweled and Fancy af.
Ashley: This outfit is also perfect for Chicago’s ever-changing weather.
Diljit Dosanjh
Lianna: SOUTH ASIAN REPRESENTATION(!!!!) at Coachella AND such an iconic outfit.
Ashley: Making history and slaying.
Flo Milli
Lianna: She dressed for the desert. Ate.
Ashley: Sometimes less is more!
Frank Ocean
Lianna: It's giving absent.
Ashley: He couldn't find a good outfit, so he didn't go.
Kali Uchis
Ashley: Kali is a Y2K icon.
Lianna: We love a denim-on-denim moment.
Ashley: She reinvented denim-on-denim!
Remi Wolf
Lianna: *activate Chandler Bing voice* Can she be wearing any more colors?
Ashley: I appreciate that this outfit is sustainable, but North Face could’ve tried to upcycle it a little more. It looks like she closed her eyes and picked random items from her closet.
Willow
Lianna: Living for the fit, but for the mic stand even more.
Ashley: The distressed denim cool.
YUNGBLUD
Lianna: Ah, yes wearing the same fit … as always.
Ashley: We end on such an uninspiring outfit :/
