Black bralets are paired with Indiana print bottoms for a look of the summer globe-trotter. Sheer fabrics add interest to simple tops, while frills introduce movement. Ethnic-inspired patterns are repeated on shorts, miniskirts and casual pants, characterised by patterned stripes and multicolour. Ensembles are finished with a pair of tinted sunnies or strappy flat sandals.

Coachella trend-setters reveal their feminine side with clothing textured in delicate laces, shaded in cream or pure white for a minimal chic. Layering lends a boho dimension to off-the-shoulder tops, as T-dresses play with sheer and solid contrasts. Loose-fit cover-ups demonstrate their festival credentials with fringed trim.

Modern warriors adorn themselves with tribal-inspired jewellery pieces, with oversized shapes creating striking accessory statements. Necklaces protect the chest with rows silver coins or metal chain link fringe, while other accessories are detailed with beading or embossed plates. Body harnesses can also be worn to add a directional touch to casual stylings.

Transfer tattoos emerge as a must-have beauty look on the festival circuit this season, updated with shimmering metallic surfaces for a fashion-forward twist. Striped gold and silver cuffs create a Tribal Warrior feel when placed high on the arm, while crystalline graphics stand out on the back of the hand and geometric formations are revealed on the inner wrist.
