These Coachella Outfits Make Us Feel Like We Time Traveled Back to the '90s

Coachella Style 2019

Coachella has come and gone, and while we’ll likely be talking about the performances for years to come, we also can’t forget about the celebrity outfits. After all, fashion is a major part of the music festival, and for us non-famous folks, these looks can provide outfit inspiration as we head into warmer weather.

Like most years, the overall theme was much of the same, with ensembles ranging from whoa to completely wearable. All the classic desert dancing staples were still there — denim, fringe, sheer materials, etc. — but thrown into the mix were tie-dye pieces, matching sets, and even some western influence. Plus, we can't ignore the fact that the '90s are still going strong, especially among the model crew. It's also worth pointing out that many stars opted to wear something simple, only to give it some oomph with layered necklaces or combat boots.
