10 Cute Outfit Ideas for Every Type of Concert
Whether you’re a Bonnaroo gal or the beats of The Weeknd’s arena tour are more your speed, we’ve got the concert outfit for you. After all, when it comes to concert-going, a genre-appropriate look is almost as important as the music (well, to us at least). Of course, there are a few other factors to consider when choosing what to wear: You need to be able to dance, possibly walk long distances (if you’re attending a music festival), and brave the elements if the concert is outdoors. (On that note, also check out our cheat sheet of the best types of shoes to wear to a concert.) To help you decide on an outfit based on the type of concert you’re going to, we’ve compiled an assortment of celebrity-approved looks that would be perfect for the occasion. Click through to see and shop 10 concert-ready outfits for rock, country, pop, music festivals, and more, Get ready to rock out in style, and get ready to dance one out in style.
Our best advice when it comes to a rock concert? Wear sturdy shoes. Even if you’re not moshing and jumping around, other people will be. So protect yourself with a pair of moto boots, then complete the look with edgy, dark-colored pieces à la Bella Hadid and Emma Roberts.

While you want to avoid looking costumey for a country music concert, you do want to give a subtle nod to the genre. Mix plaid with more sophisticated pieces and keep denim polished. And no matter what you do, don’t forget the boots!

If you have tickets to a Top-40 star’s tour, bust out your favorite crop top and jeans, top them off with a duster or bomber jacket, and slip on a comfy pair of heels or ankle boots.

Available in sizes 24 to 29.
Available in sizes 6 to 11.
Perhaps it’s the wide-open spaces and daylight, but outdoor music festivals are more of a fashion show than any other type of musical event (in our minds, at least). Try a matching set or chic romper for a cool, easy look, or take advantage of the Woodstock vibe and bust out your best boho-chic looks, preferably on the subtler side. And remember: You want flats. Always flats.
Available in sizes 35 IT to 41 IT.
A subtle ’90s cool-kid look feels fresh right now on the alternative scene. Try a minidress and ankle boots or sneakers, or keep things simple and comfortable with a graphic tee and denim cutoffs.
