Music Festivals: Fancy Dress Costume Ideas

Thanks to celebrities dressing up and more festivals encouraging attendees to don creative outfits, fancy dress is the new chic for the summer season. With fancy dress parades and competitions celebrating all things outlandish, festival-goers will find they fit right in when dressing up as famous figures, rather than feeling out of place.

If you're heading to events such as Bestival, which is renowned for fancy dress among the performers and audience alike, you can fortunately find details of the annual theme far in advance to make sure you get your costume sorted in time. After last year's successful 'space oddity' theme saw Lily Allen and others dressing in costumes that were out of this world, this year's theme is fantasy - meaning guests could get away with anything from fairy costumes to famous Disney characters.

Disney is still a favourite inspiration when it comes to people choosing their extravagant look for fancy dress events, especially with celebrities like Paris Hilton dressing as Alice in Wonderland for Halloween. Whether it's a timeless favourite like Snow White or a fresher face like Buzz Lightyear, these recognisable characters are always a hit.

Celebrities don't just provide inspiration for fantasy costume ideas either, as many have become iconic fancy dress images themselves. From music legends like Jimi Hendrix to fresh faces like Lady Gaga, fancy dress can be a way to raise a laugh or for fans to celebrate their heroes. That's especially the case at music events held in honour of the stars, such as the tribute parties held for the late Michael Jackson, which were attended by many fans wearing full Jackson costumes or even just the trademark white glove to show their dedication.

Dressing up as a music legend is especially appropriate at festivals, of course, whether the celebrity you're imitating is playing at the event or even if you just want to display your music taste. Even if you're not looking to go all the way with a full costume, fancy dress accessories like wigs or Australian cork hats are always a winner among people looking to embrace the lively atmosphere.

It's not just new arrivals on the festival scene that embrace fancy dress either, with old favourite Glastonbury attracting legions of new fans each summer who have their own ideas about celebrating, even arranging special fancy dress meet-ups. Without a dedicated theme, it seems anything goes at these celebrations, meaning fancy dress costumes lovers can be as inventive as they like.
