Concert culture and festival fashion is definitely a vibe, but why does the fun have to stop there? Here are the things we’re taking from the most popular fits at the Olivia Rodrigo GUTS tour and wearing on the daily.
The unofficial uniforms that come out from fellow fans might be one of the best things about attending concerts. While waiting in lines for basically anything – food, the bathroom, entering the venue – observing the different ways people express their love for the artist you’re about to witness definitely helps the time fly by. For Olivia Rodrigo’s first-ever concert in the Philippines, Filipino Livies really understood the assignment with the sparkle, purple, and butterflies.

The heeled boots. The corsets. The frills and bows. Left and right, boys and girls alike ate. And while not everything we saw is something we can incorporate into our daily wardrobes, here are a few style choices that you can take with you into the rest of the year for an added bit of flair.

FACE GEMS AND STICKERS
Inspired by the imagery of her Sour album, Olivia Rodrigo fans were bedazzled to the tens. From shimmer and glitter to face gems and stickers, people were shining and could be seen for miles. Beyond the eye glitter, concert-goers were also seen rocking gems in their hair, on their arms – the crowd definitely got creative. So what we’re taking away: who says you can’t wear gems everyday? Perhaps completely covering your face in sparkle everyday isn’t practical if you’re commuting, but a tiny gem here or there is an easy way to add some glam to even a simple look. Plus, did you know that they make pimple patches that come in aesthetic shapes and colors? You can enjoy having stickers on your face while protecting yourself from acne scarring.
BRAIDS AND HAIR CLIPS
Olivia Rodrigo is also known for her beautiful, long locks – usually seen completely undone or in braids. It’s no wonder, then, why a lot of Livies were seen rocking braids. For others, they took the hair down-do up a notch by adding fun accessories such as bows and colored star clips to be in theme with the stars that the GUTS tour branding has become known for. What we’ve learned: braids are awesome – especially for days when your hair is being uncooperative. And adding a few colorful clips is a really easy way to style yourself without much cost or effort.

PLEATED SKIRTS
Whether it’s because her fans really are still in school or because they feel young at heart, Olivia Rodrigo’s pleated skirts speak to her nation. Pleated skirts have been around and popular since forever it seems. So it makes sense that this staple of women’s fashion would be seen in a pop star’s wardrobe. But the added detail of contrast black and colorful (ideally purple) checker print makes for an unspoken uniform that is instantly recognizable as being Olivia-coded.

SEQUINS
The silver holographic top and skirt outfit that Olivia rocks on stage is exactly the kind of loud fashion statement that matches the singer’s powerhouse vocals and natural charisma when she performs. Some Livies got into the full concert swing by sporting fully sequined tops or bottoms, while others opted for a couple of sequins here and there. Either way, the galaxy vibes were vibing. Sequin and shiny garments can take the glam level of your OOTD up dramatically, and you don’t even have to try that much.
BLACK LACE AND MESH
While fishnet stockings are awesome, and definitely deserve to have a major comeback, they’re not always appropriate if you go to school or work in an office. Some good alternatives that a lot of attendees turned to were the ol’ reliable lace and mesh. These items add edge to Olivia Rodrigo’s look to communicate the punk rock aspects of her musical stylings. In your wardrobe, they can serve as interesting layering pieces that can add some visual depth to your fit – especially for the upcoming Halloween season!
