The Lollapalooza Street Style Was Seriously Good Last Year

One of the few attendees who noted the thunderstorms in the forecast, this well-prepared attendee opted to pair her sundress with black Wellies.

When she worried her denim cutoffs were too short, she expertly offset them with a long crocheted vest.

If your festival ensemble is mostly black, printed shorts can go a long way.

It was hard to decide which look we liked more – the printed top with shoulder cutouts was unexpected but the knit halter with fringed hem was a luxe spin on the classic crochet top.

One of the best parts about going to a festival with friends is swapping clothes before you get there, which is what these pals did – all wearing something from another's closet.

A floor-length, long-sleeved dress might have looked a touch warm on a hot day, but the sheer fabric helped this woman keep her cool.

This attendee paired her Lilly Pulitzer romper with Versace shades and her grandmother's handbag.

We love the comfy feel this attendee opted for with an Anthropologie maxi skirt and red Keds.

A Francesca's Collection tank top and DIY cutoff jeans got a sexy upgrade thanks to strappy Aldo sandals.

Sneakers this bright can make any outfit, especially one with this playful romper from Young Fabulous & Broke.

This stylist rocked a monochromatic head-to-toe look, pairing a white lace-up skirt set with white kicks and a white cowboy hat.

This woman prided her tied-at-the-waist Tilly's scarf as the perfect festival accessory – she could use it as a makeshift blanket on the grass or as shade from the glaring midday sun.

A girlie matching shorts set got the downtown treatment thanks to a black leather backpack and boots.

We loved the sporty-meets-chic styling behind this jersey-style H&M top and sequin-embellished miniskirt.

Bringing the brightness, this festival fan topped off her checkered Dry Goods romper with mirrored sunglasses.

The windy weather worked in this woman's favor, adding amazing volume to her breezy two-piece outfit.

When you're still tired from the night before, it's not a bad idea to wear your PJs! This pajama-style matching set was the perfect laid-back solution.

Channeling a boho vibe — complete with a Zara dress featuring off-the-shoulder bell sleeves — looked effortless for this concertgoer.

This woman proved there's no such thing as too many flowers when she paired her floral-print romper with a colorful flower crown.

Although this concertgoer's outfit could easily be worn any weekend, she still made herself known with bold Quay cat-eye sunglasses.

The official uniform of the music festival included short shorts, bare midriffs, sunglasses, and comfortable shoes.

Matching sets are as hot at music festivals as they are on the red carpet, as this festivalgoer showcased.

What to do when you and your best pal both want to wear the same skintight, black-and-white vertical-striped shorts? You go for it, making sure to keep the rest of the look distinct.

A button-front denim skirt was as preppy as it got at this year's fest.

Grunge meets glam with these friends.

An ikat top and an oversize crocheted vest? She's got the Lolla look down.

Proving you can look cute and still be comfortable, this attendee paired loose Free People pants with an equally breezy top.

When your Urban Outfitters pants are too long and there's no time for a trip to the tailor, do like this woman did and pin them up yourself for a billowy silhouette.

Circle-frame sunglasses became a big trend of the festival, and we can see why: it takes the already-popular '70s aesthetic to a whole new level.

Emoji aren't just on your phone these days. This woman wore the conversation piece of the weekend after ordering it off Amazon.

If you want that skintight tank to stay perfectly tucked in, follow this woman's advice and go for an Aritzia bodysuit.

This Free People maxi dress was one of our favorites because it made the perfect complement to almost every other dress at Lollapalooza.

It was hard not to notice this hot-pink top from across the park — and we love how she paired it with equally bright white flatform sandals from Forever 21.

When you're looking for an unexpected way to cover up, follow this festivalgoer's lead and look for a silk bathrobe! She found this one at Anthropologie and made it work as a whole different form of loungewear.

Bold printed pants became a trend everyone wanted to copy. Not only was it a look that stood out from the throngs of cutoffs, but it was also one of the most comfortable ways to dress for a long day in the Summer sun.

This music fan dressed to have fun, pairing a flouncy tank with playful shorts. Her circle-frame sunglasses and bandana hair tie were perfect accessories.

The perfect way to catch a little relief on a scorching-hot day is with a dress that boasts a few well-placed cutouts.

This attendee bought her complete look — from her bold, fringe necklace and her red-framed shades to her stack of bracelets and her multicolored sporty sandals — from Zara.

We couldn't believe this music fan found her on-trend full-fringe skirt from Forever 21.

When you own a pair of Stuart Weitzman knee-high gladiator sandals, you wear them to Lollapalooza. This music fan also managed to pair hers with other statement pieces — a Dolce Vita leather crop top, bold Le Specs sunglasses, printed shorts, and a fringed fanny pack — without looking over the top.

When these are your comfortable pants, you know you've got serious street style. These stretchy flares were a rare find at the festival.

This pair showed two very different ways of styling classic denim cutoff shorts — with an oversize vest and vintage headband or with a fun tank top and locally made jewelry.

A long-sleeved lace dress isn't what you expect to see on a near-90-degree day, but this festivalgoer was completely comfortable in her Free People look.

Another case for fringe! This Cusp shirt proves you don't need to reserve the trend to bags and booties.

We love how this attendee followed a key rule of crop top dressing: if you're going to bare midriff, offset it with a maxi skirt.

A parrot print made this two-piece matching crop top set stand out, but not so much that her friend's fringed Zara dress went unnoticed.

This playful white, A-line Guess dress truly popped under the hot sun in Grant Park.

Symmetrical cutouts made this otherwise simple icy-blue dress a real head turner.

The smartest festival-going friends coordinate. We love how these ladies mixed graphic tees, wide-brimmed ASOS hats, and Frye boots.

Thanks to a basic white cropped tank, this Free People skirt, topped with a vintage belt, stood out the most.

Every closet needs a black jumpsuit, and the styling of this casual option — topped with a simple Madewell necklace — is as effortless to put together as it is eye-catching.

This ladylike dress got an urban upgrade, thanks to a leather crossbody bag, motorcycle boots, and a bold necklace.

If you never want to get lost in the crowd, opt for a wild, colorful print. That's what this woman did with her off-the-shoulder romper from Akira.

Proof that sneakers look good with everything: an acid-washed MinkPink denim romper and Tom Ford sunglasses were all this woman needed to look the part of a street style star.

This pair had the temperature in mind when they dressed in breathable fabrics. We love how the bold bag, a purchase from Colombia, stood out against the pale blue dress, which was expertly knotted.

When you're shopping for a festival, H&M is hard to top. That's why this stylish attendee bought her head-to-toe look at the retailer.

Don't let these looks deceive you. These three pals all opted for ultra-wide-legged pants, not skirts or dresses, when putting together their festival looks.

Going for comfort, this woman chose light-washed, high-waisted jeans and a tried-and-true pair of Converse.

A high-necked halter helped this concertgoer make a statement.

If you want to stand out, a sexy-but-sweet floor-length dress is the way to go. This one, from Urban Outfitters, was paired with a Chloé bag and Cole Haan sandals.

When you opt for bold printed shorts, like these from Billabong, it's smart to let them stand out. This black H&M illusion crop top and American Apparel fanny pack worked perfectly as neutrals.

We spotted the overly saturated color of these daisy-print American Apparel shorts from across the park!

Birkenstocks still reign supreme at music festivals! So do crocheted dresses and bucket bags, like this tan one from Baggu.
