Coachella is back — and it’s wilder than ever! Weekend one of the 2025 festival has already brought unforgettable music, insane fashion, and major star power. From bold designer outfits to total style surprises, the Coachella crowd (and stage!) didn’t hold back. Let’s break down the best, the worst, and the straight-up “did-they-really-wear-that?!” moments.
1. Benson Boone Shines Bright in Sparkly Dolce & Gabbana
Benson Boone didn’t just impress fans with his epic backflips — his outfits were just as jaw-dropping! The 22-year-old singer rocked two custom Dolce & Gabbana looks. First, he wore a sleeveless cotton jacket with gold details and wide-leg pants. Then, for his second act, he stepped out in a shiny bodysuit covered in Swarovski crystals, flared pants, a velvet cape, and blinged-out accessories. Major fantasy vibes!
2. Jennie’s Fierce Cowgirl Look
Blackpink’s Jennie turned the Western trend into a full fashion moment. She hit the stage in a bold, all-red outfit from Georges Hobeika’s fall 2025 collection — crocodile-embossed jacket, matching bra top, mini shorts, and tan thigh-high boots. She even added a cowgirl hat and sunglasses to seal the look. Yeehaw, fashion style!
3. Julia Fox Forgets Her Pants (Again)
Julia Fox definitely knows how to grab attention. She arrived in the desert in a cream corset and a tiny leather cape — and, well, no pants. Yep, her entire butt was out, and she was totally fine with it. SPF, anyone?
4. Lady Gaga’s Costume Show Stole the Spotlight
It wouldn’t be Coachella without Lady Gaga going full theatrical. Her nearly two-hour set came with several costume changes, including a feathered white gown that looked like something from another planet and a sleek black dress paired with a sheer lace veil. Gaga always brings the drama!
5. Queen Latifah and Tyla Bring Back Y2K
It was a total throwback moment! Queen Latifah hit the stage with Megan Thee Stallion in a simple black outfit, but it was her ’90s hair and accessories that screamed retro cool. Tyla turned heads in a tiny vintage Dolce & Gabbana set from 2000. “As soon as I saw the skirt, I fell in love,” she told Vogue. “The skirt is barely anything — and that’s just how I like it.” Confidence level: MAX.
6. Charli xcx’s Soft Girl Glow
Charli xcx surprised fans with a sweet and soft look at The Overcompensating House. Her glow came courtesy of Dermalogica skincare, thanks to makeup artist Yasmin Istanbouli. She wore a cute pink-and-white tank top and a brown skirt — way softer than her usual edgy vibe!
7. Troye Sivan Battles the Heat in Jeans and Long Sleeves
Let’s be honest — Troye Sivan looked cool, but probably felt hot. Like, desert-hot. He wore a long-sleeve T-shirt, baggy jeans, and boots. Stylish? Sure. But ideal for 100°F weather? Not so much. Timothée Chalamet, on the other hand, nailed the heat-ready look in a breezy outfit with shades, a backpack, and a hat.
8. John Mayer and Post Malone Hit the Snooze Button on Style
Let’s just say… we expected more. Both John Mayer and Post Malone stuck to their usual jeans-and-tee looks. At a festival known for wild and fun fashion, these two kept it way too chill. Where’s the fun, fellas?
9. Clairo Brings Cat Eyes Back
Clairo’s stage look had one standout feature: her eyeliner. She wore a sheer, patchwork-style outfit, but it was her fierce cat-eye makeup that had fans buzzing. Could this be the start of a big beauty comeback? We’re watching!
10. Becky G’s Slicked-Back Hair Wins the Hair Game
Becky G stunned during her surprise performance with Gustavo Dudamel and the LA Philharmonic. Her flowing white two-piece outfit was gorgeous, but it was her hair that really wowed — sleek, shiny, and slicked-back thanks to stylist Glen “Coco” Oropeza and Garnier Fructis Sleek & Stay. Beat the heat and slay!
11. Lola Young’s Wildest Bikini Moment
Lola Young gave Coachella one of its most unique fashion moments. She rocked a fur-covered bikini top and hat — yep, fur — plus low-rise pants and wrist cuffs in olive green. Definitely not your typical beachwear, but it worked on stage as she sang her hit “Messy.”
Coachella 2025: Still the Most Stylish Circus in the Desert
Whether they dazzled or made us do a double take, the stars of Coachella 2025 definitely gave us a lot to talk about. From Lady Gaga’s drama to Julia Fox’s daring move, this weekend was all about big fashion and even bigger personalities. Stay tuned for weekend two — who knows what wild looks are coming next?
