Boho Is Back For Summer
A fresh approach to festival fashion, combining the trend revival with Rita’s signature edge.
We’ve got another full circle fashion moment on our hands! This time, it’s the revival of noughties festival fashion — a trending take on this season’s boho revival. Born in the nineties, Rita’s tapping into a nostalgic aesthetic for her latest collection while giving it her signature edge.
Boho Festival Looks
It’s no coincidence that summertime festivals see us searching for boho outfit inspiration — and the newest iteration of the trend has an earthy, homespun feel. Defined by tiered and asymmetric silhouettes, lightweight fabrications and an air of effortless glamour, Rita’s line-up of feminine and modern looks won’t disappoint!
Boho two-piece sets are back in a big way, with elevated tie and texture details. For an ethereal vibe, it’s all about our white broderie co-ord — featuring a ruffle mini skirt and dainty camisole — that you’ll be adding to your basket. Or perhaps our delicate black embroidered floral vest and black lace maxi skirt are part of your style setlist?
Never underestimate the versatility of a bikini top when it comes to festival styling. Wear with our chiffon or crochet maxi skirts for a nod to the coastal cowgirl trend or strip things back, styling with a true festival favourite: the denim short. Add longer, lightweight layers, like our printed kimonos and knitted cardigans, and finish off with a chunky biker boot or sandal.
Festival Dresses
Dresses are a fuss-free festival staple, an instant outfit requiring zero prep. Timeless classics have been reinvented in fresh fabrics — note our chiffon bandeau style with eye-catching shirred and ruffle detailing, while the sexier, sheer maxi dress options offer a playful alternative. that can be worn to beach clubs, for balcony pictures and beyond. For festivals, the limit on bangles doesn’t exist and it’s only right to complete the look with a pair of cowboy boots!
Noughties Festival Accessories You Need
Circa 2005, an outfit without an abundance of accessories was unimaginable — and festival fashion was no exception. The mantra for summer 2024? More is more. Sporting diamante headwear with oversized hoop earrings, statement sunglasses AND a plethora of layered necklaces?? Nailed it.
Nothing says noughties fashion like a chunky eyelet belt — take a leaf out of Rita’s book and wear on your hips over a tiered skirt or at the waist to cinch in a boxy-fit dress. And remember: layering accessories isn’t just reserved for your decolletage. Adorn your torso with belts, belly chains and beaded accessories to truly embrace the carefree, bohemian spirit.
Festival accessories can be practical too! To store your essentials, choose between a forever cool slouchy shoulder bag, given a boho twist with buckles and tassels, a neat crossbody design or a sparkly beaded phone holder — all ultra-practical with a nostalgic appeal. Combining function and all-out fashion, instant classics and dress code-defying hero buys that will serve you through festival season and beyond.
