Summer season is back! And thankfully Covid has taken a backseat all over the world. It’s officially time for music festivals and concerts. Who doesn’t love attending their favorite artist’s concert and enjoying their music live, right? But while you’ve got your plans and your passes sorted, choosing the right outfit to wear can sometimes be a challenge. Whether you’re more into the comfortable and chill vibe, or you like formal dressing, there’s something for you in this list. Wondering what to wear to an upcoming summer concert? Here are some of the best options you can choose from and look your absolute best.

What to Wear to a Summer Concert

Flowy Dresses and Strappy Sandals

Nothing spells summer more like flowy, printed dresses. If you’re planning to attend a concert this season, an outfit that you can trust blindly is flowy dresses and strappy sandals. They are comfy, breezy, stylish and super easy to put together – perfect for a summer concert. Whether it is at night or during the day, flowy dresses can be styled for all kinds of concerts. For a day look, you can wear a printed, pastel colored dress and for a night look, wear one in a solid, dark color. As for the footwear, strappy sandals go perfectly with flowy dresses and are super comfortable to wear to a standing concert.

Band Tees and Maxi Skirts for an Edgy Combination

If you’re a fan of the band you’re going to see, you’ll surely want to wear a band tee. These tees are not just great for fans, they look super cool and chic otherwise as well. Band tees have been a fashion must-have for years now and if styled right, they can make you look cool and edgy. Pair your favorite band tee with a midi skirt in prints or solid colors. These tees usually tend to be lose and oversized. So, for a crisp look, you can tuck in the tee or tie the lose part of the tee into a knot at the bottom. For maximum comfort, finish your look with a pair of white sneakers.

Wear a Body Suit with a Pair of Ripped Jeans

Body suits are simple and easy to style, but can make you look super sexy and put together. Body suits come in many different styles and almost all of them can be paired with high waist ripped jeans. This is one of the most comfortable yet stylish outfits. Classic options like a black lace or a white ribbed bodysuit will look great with a pair of denims. Add strappy sandals or wedge heels to complete the look and you’ll be concert ready in absolutely no time. Simply use accessories to dress up or dress down your outfit, depending on the vibe you’re going for.

Aztec or Boho Printed Outfit for an Outdoor Concert

Outdoor music festivals, specially sundowners or day events, have a boho vibe to them. Dress the part in an Aztec or graphic printed outfit and look your best. When it comes to boho prints, there are many options to choose from. You can go for a boho co-ord set for an OTT look, or for a more subtle look, go for Aztec printed pants and pair it with a simple, white crop top. Alternatively, you can also wear a simple crop to and jeans and pair it with a boho kimono. All these looks are perfect for an outdoor fest. Complete your look with a pair of space buns or matching, layered accessories.

Tank Top and Shorts for Ultimate Comfort

What spells comfort more clearly than a pair of shorts and tank top? Best part about summer concerts is that you can never dress too casually. Most music festivals have a chill, relaxed vibe to them. Tank top and shorts make for a super comfortable and casual look, and if accessories well, it will work wonderfully for summer concerts. For a more put together look, tuck in your tank top in a pair of high waist pants and complete the look with a matching belt. Alternatively, you can wear a pair of high waist shorts with a cropped tank top and a matching kimono or shrug. Team it up with a layered necklace and a pair of raybans and you’re all set to make a fashion statement at the concert.

A Monochromatic Classic Outfit

If all else fails, you always have your monochromatic outfits to rely on. A classic all black or an all-white outfit is something you can never go wrong with. Play around with the right accessories and you’ll definitely make a statement at the event. Monochrome outfits might look simple at the first glance, but they leave an impression like nothing else. While it takes time and effort to properly put together a matching outfit, you can simply go for a white or black solid colored co-ord set and team it up with golden accessories.  Wear at least one statement jewelry – a bag, a watch, a pair of heels, anything – to complete the look.

Pair a Sundress with White Sneakers

Take any sundress from your closet, wear it with a pair of white sneakers, and you’re all set for a summer concert. Sundresses are comfortable, cool, stylish and easy to carry. Sneakers, too, are one of the most comfortable yet stylish footwears. So while this look is extremely comfy, it is also really stylish and fashionable. Sundresses are always the most trending piece of women’s clothing during summers, so why not wear it to a fun music concert? Keep the accessories simple with just a watch and a pair of black sunglasses and it’ll be perfect.

An Easy-Breezy Co-ord Set

Co-ord sets are super trendy these days, especially for summers. Printed and light-weight matching sets can look and feel great for a concert during summers. You can pair a co-ord set in a fun, summer color with a pair of wedge heels and statement earrings. Co-ord sets are easy to style since you don’t have to spend hours finding a matching top or bottom. Instead, spend time one creating a unique makeup look for the concert and matching statement accessories with your look. This will help you stand out while also saving some precious time getting ready.
