Once you hear “Coachella model,” the very first thing that involves thoughts is just not probably the most stylish. Lately the recent denim brief, bikini prime, cowboy hat and a few type of fringe suede quantity has change into synonymous with the competition. Lengthy gone are prairie clothes, the suitable aspect of Western and the eternally cool groovy ’60s.

Jared Leto is an efficient instance of how totally different references from totally different genres don’t mix collectively all the time. The grunge plaid shirt and rock ‘n’ roll skinny zebra pants, with the skater Vans and sleeveless T-shirt misses the mark by making an attempt too arduous to be cool. 

Amber Rose is one other instance of a star making an attempt to capitalize on a previous musical pattern — on this case, the raver plastic orange pants with the S&M impressed leather-based bra prime and platform fight boots. Rose additionally fails to revive the ’90s second.

All the recent shorts paired with crop tops and surprisingly winter footwear, corresponding to knee-high increase or chunky booties, mix collectively and change into the poster baby of what’s incorrect with Coachella model. Including a netted prime, like Victoria Justice, or an announcement hat, like Jasmine Tookes, solely worsens the style quotient. Within the case of Paris Jackson and Lindsay Lohan, we’re left barely speechless. It appears they acquired dressed at the hours of darkness, or they purposely tried to create a brand new sort of sample mixture that for good motive was by no means tried earlier than. 

It’s clear this can be a denim-centric competition, and choosing acid wash or bleached particulars — or every other adventurous end — not often succeeds.
