It was beyond flower power this time! Besides the expected floral headgears, fringed bags and denim shorts - the recently concluded Coachella music fet saw reflector sunnies, wide-brimmed hats, body and face art, tribal jewellery and mini rompers. Year after year Coachella spells bohemia laced with comfort. Model and TV actress Gigi Hadid paired her black top and shorts with a tanned fringed waistcoat while blogger Chiara Ferragni wore an artisanal Chanel bag, Balenciaga and an H&M skirt and top. We ask our Indian gypsies what would they wear if they were at the music fest.
Monica Dogra, singer and designer
If I were at the fest, I would probably wear my new empress robe from nor black nor white paired with the ikat bralette top I recently purchased from Chandi Sareen'e "The Ikat Story", as I'm really into bohemian silhouettes and kaftans these days. I'd also layer on the vintage Jewelry, midi rings and beads. I would top my look off with my usual essential oils.
Malini Ramani, designer
I'd wear a pair of shorts, a sheer kaftan with fringed boots, a headgear and a lot of bindis and big retro sunglasses. It'll be shorts in day and kaftans in the night. Since one has to walk around, comfort is key. The look will be a tribal gypsy with a lot of fringes. I'll also wear nose septum rings which I used in my last show.
Allia Al Rufai, stylist
Coachella has always been on my travel itinerary. I'd definitely have the perfect pair of distressed denim shorts, play with a lot of fringing, fine prints rather than bold prints. Gladiators are my fav for summers. Fringed bikini is a strong trend besides cool and flowy capes and ponchos. I'll keep the jewellery bold, go for a tanned look. I think a maang tika at Coachella will be cool.
Surily Goel, designer
A lot of lace, crochet - my look will be very flower power, boho allowing a lot of movement. Perhaps a Little Shilpa headpiece and other head accessories will complete the look. Really tiny culottes, gladiators, sling bag, mini backpack and a tattoo would be amazing. Floral hair piece, fringed boots or perhaps something flat- I want to dance so comfort is crucial. Makeup will be a bit of gloss but mostly au natural.
