Bucket hats and bright outfits dominate Parklife's festival fashion

Festival season is an exciting time of year for fashion lovers, as they style themselves in outfits you wouldn’t typically see the rest of the year.

“We got a train down to Parklife and it took around two and a half hours to get here - but it’s definitely worth the journey down.

“My outfit is actually handmade, and I got it online at Etsy. It did have sleeves originally but I took them off because my fit had to be bright and colourful for Parklife!

“I have my suncream on, keeping hydrated and I’m ready for the weekend!”

Lauren O’Donovan, 21, from Hartlepool also made the trek down to Parklife for the two day festival. Unlike her pal, Lauren was head to toe in fast fashion giant Shein.
