The Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival returned this past weekend after a two-year hiatus, bringing together some of today’s biggest musicians, who took the stage wearing high-fashion looks that made an impression on viewers just as much as their performances did.
Headliners like Harry Styles and Billie Eilish both brought their signature flair to their respective performances, with Styles starting out the weekend in a custom multicolored mirror-detail Gucci set, which matched the 1970s-inspired sequin dress worn by his surprise guest Shania Twain. Eilish took the stage the following night, leaning into her signature loungewear look in a graffiti-inspired T-shirt and matching spandex shorts created by independent designer Conrad.
