You might catch a modern-day diva on stage strutting in a latex top. Spy some ‘influencer’ on their phone posting to millions. Catch an A-list (or even D-list) celebrity walking the crowd, as much as stepping from an even tent. You might even swipe some swag from a pop-up shop. Whatever one might get into or see, there is no denying lots of what happened the first week of Coachella 2026 had to do with…fashion.
The articles, blogs and posts have been flying in on the hour about this infamous hot weather see-and-be-scene. For the casual fan it seems that that hot weather aesthetic ruled couture this year as it seems to always do. Miniskirts, short shorts, jorts and barely-there tees made of denims, soft leather ruled. Suede strips were seen flowing off of vests, vests and chaps, crocket and mesh was in abundance ( it is how out there after all!) with accessories including low-slung belts, boots and cowboy hats.
The 2026 Revolve Festival happened on Coachella field on Saturday. Designers like Still Here New York to Adriana Degreas were represented at this 9th version of this celebrity-filled activation event that went on under a tent. Attendees included Emma Roberts, Teyana Taylor and Kitty Ca$h to name a few. The outfits here ranged from high fashion to lingerie to a whole bunch of everything in between.
On stage for this first week?
Sabrina Carpenter wore a hot red Dior micro minidress for her set. Addison Rae was in a white corset top, accessorized with a boa made of fake dollar bills. Marie Zardoya also went with a white corset top. Her’s though had feathery sleeves. Centra Cee was in a bespoke “GAP” hoodie and Justin Bieber, wore a hoodie as well. But he added shorts and boots. And PinkPantheress advertised her new brand connection with UGG Tazz II by wearing a top and slippers from the designer for her on stage moment.
For week 2…who knows what we will see.
