The five festival fashion trends you need to know for 2025
As festival season approaches, the Glastonbury lineup isn't the only hot topic; festival fashion is also a key point of discussion. While some trends, like Hunter wellies and denim shorts, reappear annually, festival style has evolved significantly since the pandemic. Comfort and everyday trends are now widely embraced. Whether navigating muddy fields or dancing at a day festival, celebrity stylists offer their predictions for this year's top festival trends. 1. Boho chic Boho has been back for a while, and while it may be petering out on the high-street, this year's festivals are the perfect places to sport it. "I love how boho has had a huge revival and in perfect timing for festival season," says celebrity stylist Ellis Ranson. "Think the Chloé runway meets mud and fields. Crochet dresses, fringing, earthy tones - Vanessa Hudgens is your go-to for inspo." Bohemian style has drifted in and out of the fashion spotlight since its heyday in the free-spirited Seventies - but it truly caught fire again in the early 2000s, when icons like Sienna Miller and the Olsen twins made it their signature, teaming floaty blouses with oversized belts and studded boots. Boho chic The trend has never been so fitting for festivals - just look at Kate Moss and Miller's Noughties Glastonbury looks. Stylist Sian Clarke in partnership with Michael Kors, confirms that the boho trend is here to stay, noting an 83% spike in search interest. "Crochet is super versatile," she says. "Consider styling a crochet halter neck with denim shorts and cowboy boots for warmer festival days." From floaty co-ords to stitched accessories, this trend is easy and effortless. 2. Nineties jorts While boho chic may be evoking the 2000s, the rise of baggy jorts - or jean shorts - is throwing festival fashion back to the Nineties. "We are seeing a rise in the new summer staple, the jort," says Ranson, "yes, the longline short, which is actually a great style for every body type, so that's a win for any stylist." Whether DIY'd from an old pair of Levi's or sourced from a beloved vintage shop, the jort is a festival staple teamed with a tank and trainers for a cool but comfy look. 3. Utility core Another trend offering a more laid-back look in comparison to boho chic is utility core. "Comfort is key, we aren't here for being in pain for fashion when it comes to festival fun," says Ranson, "oversized cargo pants, waistcoats, Timberlands, desert neutrals [are all the rage]." Utility core is like a combination of Lara Croft and Euphoria, taking functional silhouettes and pairing them with suede or metallic finishes and face gems. Having a neutral base and layering with gems and jewellery is an easy festival look that doesn't require much thought - especially if you're on day three. 4. Disco cowboy While cowboy boots were in last summer, this season the 'disco cowboy' is making waves with metallic fringe and studded Western boots. "Cowboy boots make everything look cool," says Ranson, "Even if you are wearing a vest and denim shorts they can completely elevate your look." And if you're facing unpredictable weather - which is likely during a UK festival - they're a great pick. "Cowboy boot wellies have emerged from the western trend," says Clarke. "These hybrid heroes give you the best of both worlds: practical for being weatherproof wellingtons and in trend." Metallics are the cherry on top. With searches for 'metallic and fringe jackets' up by 69%, they're clearly the after-dark must-have. "If you have a plainer, more subtle outfit on, throw on a metallic jacket to give it some more personality," says Clarke. Or equally, opting for metallic boots or a bag can spice up your outfit for a festival. 5. Timeless vintage This year more than ever, festival goers are leaning into vintage gems. "A main shift I would say is it being more about vintage finds," says Ranson. "A vintage band tee is an easy safe option, teamed with a floaty skirt, fringed denim, or a dress over the top. "It can work through any trend, year after year." Layered jewellery and a solid pair of retro trainers - a nod to the F1 trend - can give any outfit the edge it needs. The key to making vintage look good is balancing your look. So if you're going for an oversized T-shirt or jacket, pair it with a smaller bottom silhouette. Clarke says micro shorts are a key base for vintage looks: "As cow and snake are the prints of the summer season, pair micro shorts with standout pieces like a cow-print crop top or snake-print jacket."

Stefon Diggs sends two-word message to Cardi B amid boat video controversy
NFL star Stefon Diggs took to Instagram on Tuesday to share a snap with his girlfriend, rapper Cardi B, ignoring the noise surrounding the boat video controversy. The controversy erupted as a video of Stefon Diggs holding a small bag of pink powder on a yacht party emerged, leading to speculations of drug use. The New England Patriots wide receiver shrugged off the noise and focused on uploading some photos to Instagram, including a snap of him and his beau courtside at a Boston Celtics NBA Playoffs game against the New York Knicks on May 12. "To the month of May, I appreciate you none the less... gotta stay focused," Diggs started the posting spree. He then shared the photo of him and Cardi B courtside to his Instagram Stories with the caption, 'Baby brim.' The photo was one of 20 Diggs posted on his Instagram story. The WR can be spotted in jeans and Timberlands, while Cardi B is kitted out in a black leather suit. The 31-year-old New England Patriots player has been dating the rapper for a while now, although the precise start of their relationship is still unclear. Their dating rumours began swirling in October 2024. New England Patriots star Stefon Diggs was recently seen partying on a boat, passing a bag of pink crystals to women on a boat. While the video has caused controversy, the NFL franchise's coach, Mike Vrabel, said that his conversations with Diggs 'will remain between him I and the club'.

Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneaker review: Comfortable, stylish and no break-in period
I hiked 25 miles in the new Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof hiking sneakers, and I don't plan on hitting the trails in anything but these anytime soon. Moderately priced, stylish, comfortable, durable and waterproof, these sneakers check all the boxes and then some. They also have almost no break-in period, something that is essentially unheard of in the world of hiking shoes/boots. And, despite being called "sneakers" by Timberland, the Motion Access Mids look and wear more like a pair of trendy hiking boots than trail shoes. I wore the Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers in pouring forest rain, along dusty mountain trails, in the mean city streets and even in social settings. With 25 miles behind me and nothing but positive impressions, here's everything you need to know about Timberland's brilliant new hiking sneakers. The Timberland Motion Access Mid Lace-Up Waterproof Sneaker is available now for $149 directly from Timberland in men's styles/sizing only. Choose from black (shown here), white, light grey or olive. I tested the medium-width version of the Motion Access Mid. The Timberland site hints at a "wide" version, but as of publishing, no styles or sizes are available. Timberland's Motion Access Sneaker line comes in a bunch of varieties, including both low and mid, and with or without waterproofing. For this review, I'm focusing specifically on the Motion Access Mid Waterproof Lace-up Sneakers. Weighing roughly 17 ounces per shoe, these hiking sneakers are a little heavier than many of the best hiking boots we've reviewed, including the 14-ounce Scarpa Rush 2 Mid GTX boots — another favorite of mine — and 14-ounce Salewa Pedroc Pro PowerTex Mid PTX, a top choice for speed hikers. Still, I don't find the Timberlands heavy on my feet. With a stylish silhouette and oversized midsole, Timberland's latest Motion Access Sneakers are also far less granola-looking than the brand's Motion Access Hiking Boots. And that's the point. The Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers are meant to look just as fly on the trailhead as they do at the post-hike watering hole, allowing you to seamlessly transition from outdoor adventurer to hipster socialite without so much as untying a lace. I'm a big fan of the all-black color option. Maybe it's all the years I spent living in New York City, but black-on-black always looks classy in my mind. I also seriously dig the embossed Timberland logo near the heel of the sneaker. In terms of materials, these fully waterproof bad boys feature a mix of high-quality leather and synthetic fabrics, including a healthy amount of "TimberDry," an impermeable textile similar to GORE-TEX and made from 50% recycled plastic. I love mid-style hiking boots and sneakers. As someone prone to rolling an ankle thanks to a youth spent skateboarding, I need the stability and support. Sure, high-tops are an option, but I feel just a little too locked in when wearing them. Plus, I'm not a fan of anything overly clunky footwear (unless we're talking Doc Martens). The Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers provide adequate ankle support, keeping my flimsy lateral ligaments from overextending all but once during the testing period. I tend to tie my hiking footwear pretty darn tight to avoid such events, and was pleased by how snug I could get the Timberlands. It's worth noting that I swapped out the provided laces for a pair of tougher hiking boot laces ($5) shown here. The upper, like the rest of the sneaker, is made from a mix of leather and synthetic materials. Overall, there's a decent amount of cushioning to keep your ankle comfortable, even with the laces secured tightly. A handy nylon pull loop on the back makes it easy to guide your foot into the shoe. The tongue of the sneaker is squishy and flexible and features the same TimberDry waterproof outer found on the rest of the sneaker. The lower lace loops are nylon, while the upper two are mounted metal hardware. Users can either thread their laces through the hardware or around the outside (see below). Thanks to a roughly 1.25-inch-thick EVA foam midsole, the Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers are extremely comfortable and well-cushioned, even when walking on rough terrain like jagged rocks. While there are springier hiking shoes out there, I found these to be plenty responsive with decent energy rebound. A plastic heel counter around the back provides added stability, something that's crucial when you have such a thick midsole. The Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers feature the brand's TimberGrip outsole, which consists of varying-sized rubber Xs that protrude a generous amount. It proved incredibly grippy in the numerous slick situations I encountered, including the steep and slippery streets of Seattle, Washington. The TimberGrip extends nearly a half-inch beyond the rear of the sneaker and a similar amount up and around the front, adding much-appreciated toe protection. The extra front grip also makes it easy to dig your toe into especially steep terrain for traction. I was skeptical the first time I put the Timberland Motion Access Mids on. Why? Rather than taking my time to properly break them in before hitting the trail — I like to do this by wearing the shoes/boots around the house and neighborhood for a month or so — I instead laced the sneakers up and immediately went on a hike. Rarely one the break the cardinal rule of comfort, I was pleasantly surprised that my feet felt fantastic for the duration of my trek up Dog Mountain in Washington's Columbia River Gorge. Better yet, several hours after that hike, I was still rocking the Motion Access Mids joyfully and willingly. Timberland's sizing for these sneakers strikes me as right on the money. I tend to wear between a U.S. men's size 9 and 10 in hiking shoes/boots, and opted for a 9.5 this time around with no regrets. Despite a super-comfortable design overall, I was somewhat surprised when I pulled the insole and found it to be a little more than a basic foam pad. Still, it seems pretty darn durable, showing virtually no signs of wear after the first 25 miles of trekking. The Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers impressed me in every situation I tested them. This includes epic hikes on both coasts of North America — one hot, dry and dusty, and the other cold, dreary and moist. I also wore them while running errands and meeting friends in Seattle, Washington, and during several urban hikes. As noted above, I neglected to break these puppies in before hitting the trail and paid zero price. This is something entirely new to me when it comes to hiking footwear. While your mileage will no doubt vary depending on factors like foot size and comfort expectations, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend these to anyone who loathes the dreaded break-in period. The Timberland Motion Access Mids also blew me out of the water in terms of weatherproofing. During my extremely wet hike in New York's Catskill Mountains — where I was testing the latest AllTrails' features — I was one of the only folks in our group without wet feet when all was said and done. And it's not like I was avoiding water. No. Quite the contrary — I was sloshing and stomping through every puddle and stream I could find, all to put these sneakers to the test, for you, dear readers. (Don't worry, I made sure not to splash my fellow hikers.) In addition to keeping water out, the Timberlands did a good job of keeping my feet firmly planted on the ground by way of those reliably grippy outsole. Simply put, I did not slip while testing these sneakers. They also provided just the right amount of support and stability for my liking, keeping my ankles (mostly) in check on even the most unstable terrain. Similarly, despite a tendency to smash my toes into rocks and tree roots like it's a job, the oversized outsole did a fab job protecting my dogs from inevitable impact. With a cost of $150, the Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof hiking sneakers aren't a bargain, but they're also not a total bank-breaker, especially when you consider what you're getting. Though I've only put 25 miles on them, I intend to keep wearing these shoes all hiking season long and will update this review with a wear report down the road. Still, based on my testing so far, I suspect these Timberlands will last a very long time. I tend to be quite rough on footwear, and so far, I see almost zero signs of wear except on the laces (which are, again, $5 to replace). Even the outsoles look brand-new. Ultimately, the Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers are ideal for folks looking to invest in a no-compromise pair of hiking boots or shoes that excel in wet and dry conditions with good stability, traction, responsiveness and comfort, all while looking fly both on and off the trail. Of course, the Timberland Motion Access Mid Waterproof Sneakers are also an obvious choice for anyone who hates the break-in period. One final note: Don't be fooled by the name. Even though Timberland calls these "sneakers," I still stand by the fact that they look and wear more like modern hiking boots than trail shoes.
