Rave & Festival Clothing Trends That Will Be Big in 2020

[@lissychavez68]

I totally agree, the evolution of raving has made this pressure to not only shop from small business/shops BUT to constantly have an outfit for each rave. I think I read an earlier comment on one of your previous videos, and I would love to do more of “outfit” trading to not only make it easier on us, but it’s more eco friendly. Overall, I’m sooo excited for skirts and dresses too! I just think overall it’s so cute and fun. I hope the trend stays on for a while.

[@cherishbomba6191]

Lissy messi , I always feel the need to buy something new for every festival/show/rave. I wear something once and that’s it - what an awful habit. LOVE the idea of outfit trading or something like a buy/sell/trade specifically for the EDM community.

[@EmmaKapotes]

Cherish Bomba yeah I think that’s an awesome idea!!

[@its_anarrah]

Should start a facebook group /marketplace or something like that! I'd be so in!

[@ladywavy3759]

ItsAnarrah there’s one called 💎💎 rave clothes sell/buy/trade on Facebook. I’ve bought a couple pieces and people seem to be pretty reliable

[@amandaherbert4194]

It’s a new year (basically) so it’s a time for everyone to grow! Biodegradable glitter and small business support is a great start! But it’s a learning curve, don’t be so hard on yourself. I love seeing you evolve each time you post, and your content is very original. I’m so excited for EDC next year, thanks for being a big part of my Rave Culture Inspiration! Keep it 💯🥳🎉🙏💜

[@Dezzieraee]

We need more guy rave outfits in 2020 . They are so ugly rn 😂 & its so hard to match with my boyfriend 😭

[@allisonmckay7869]

This is how I feel!! I want to match with my boyfriend SO bad but i want him to like what he's wearing too, not just wearing it because we wanna match, ya know? The struggle.

[@lemmehxthat]

Check out electro threads. My girl and I love the clothing from there. It's a bit pricey but its worth it.

[@sophiefarr4052]

Girl preach. I'm trying to get my bf some cool ass outfits for Lost Lands this year and there are very little options for mens rave wear, it's a tragedy!!

[@allisonmckay7869]

@@sophiefarr4052 check out iVibed! They have a new reflective collection for men & women! That's what me & my bf are gonna do for Lost Lands!

[@sophiefarr4052]

@@allisonmckay7869 Thank you for the suggestion! I'll go check them out!

[@purplesour12]

this got me sooo pumped to plan my outfits for EDC🥰 the freedom to express yourself i love it!

[@AmyMcguey]

Ahhh reflective wear is my fav right now!!

[@trtlduv07]

Amy Leah Same!!!!

[@shawnayagarcia6147]

2020 said “nope, you thought”😔

[@devorahlin]

So proud of you! Your self reflection is amazing, well done, girl!

[@Zzzk23]

And now we aren’t even getting festivals in 2020

[@shawnnachaneywright]

I have those same ones and I think they are hella comfy and I can shuffle in them :) just gotta practice in them

[@kiwicanton377]

Yuss you're finally getting on the biodegradable glitter train. ♡ As for the new outfits for every event I'm a big victim of this. How I do it is first thrifting and resell. I get a lot of things second hand. I also donate and resell items that I don't like dont wear or dont fit me anymore. There's lots of groups on Facebook that cater to rave wear, depop is great for resell and shopping. I find many unique items that way. I also upcycle adding or changing existing clothing I have to make something completely different. I do spurge on custom items but they are something I can wear many times. Really smart to explore your options in your own closet before you spend money. I often try different accessories to switch it up. Also if I dont love it I dont buy it. We all want to look cute and Express ourselves but honestly 60% of clothes end up in landfills so sell it reuse it upcycle or donate it. ♡♡

[@trtlduv07]

Awesome video! Yessss I love all the fancy footwear and reflective wear! It’s always fun! Also you’re so gorgeous! Your make up is fire and I love your Dirtybird jersey. 💙

[@EmmaKapotes]

tysm 🥺❤️

[@DigitalSorceresstv]

I definitely agree about the skirts and dresses and I’ve already been looking at a few for edc ❤️

[@lilravergrl420]

Thank you for mentioning biodegradable glitter & buying from smaller shops. Poshmark is another one like Etsy. It's a social media network for fashion & is lots of fun to use. You can make offers, bargain for deals, talk about pieces with the seller or friends. I see lots of cool & unique rave wear on there. I know phat pants aren't what's really hip anymore but I still see people buying them up. They're fun to dance in & usually have lots of big pockets for all your necessities, which is a huge plus! I just can't get into the fanny pack thing lol

[@giocampo6385]

I love small businesses and personally think the designs are so beautiful however, they charge way more for the outfits.. i’ve tried to step away from bigger companies but bigger companies charge $60 for a set where as smaller business charge over $100.. i understand they need to make money, and they hand sew and design everything themselves but it really bums me out because after spending $100-$300 on tickets i don’t have another $100 + for outfits.

[@EmmaKapotes]

Gio Campo I think that’s the main struggle people have! I tend to go for the smaller companies who still have reasonable prices because I agree, I can’t justify spending $100 on bra & bikini bottoms 😕 a more intricate, custom piece may be more worth the money!

[@felzdown6863]

I love the girly skirt and dress vibes!! Definitely wanna see more of that in 2020 ❤️ also there is absolutely nothing wrong with supporting bigger chain clothing companies! They’re at the top for a reason

[@laurenhutzel]

Emma you should make a reaction video to this considering everything HIT THE FAN LOL

[@saraha2675]

You’re so raw so honest!! You’re so loved

[@kathrynturk5045]

A trend I’d really love to see, which I guess is totally anti-trend, is rewearing/repurposing festival clothes or finding them second hand. There’s so much pressure to have a new trendy outfit for every day of a festival but that’s super wasteful and even more so, super expensive. I think it’s way cooler to see someone who got creative and put something new together with old pieces and maybe a new accessory or something.

[@trtlduv07]

Kathryn Turk yesssss I agree so much. I can never afford new outfits for every event so I always mix and match old items along with some new items to create unique things. It’s fun, creative and less expensive. 💜

[@lilravergrl420]

Micro skirts got popular 6-8 years ago with the influence of gogo dancers & the attire they wore at major festies. I did a couple of dance gigs back then & this is what all the girls wanted to wear.

[@xo.Frenchie]

Yasss, I looove the Dirty Bird shirt looks dope! Comfortable shoes are def the way to go if you're a dancer. Skirts are going to be rly trendy. I agree with you. They are so girly & cute. I'd like to see more of that. Biodegradable glitter? Wow I want to try it out the biodegradable glitter. I'm all about protecting the planet. Good bye to regular glitter. Hello biodegradable glitter 💗 I love chains and latex clothes. They r so sexy. I think you should make a video where you talk about your fav rave wear stores and which ones you'd like to try. I own an Etsy store where I sell colorful human hair wigs. Would love for you to try it out and review it.

[@christykay3863]

I am all for supporting small business, but I don't think people should be shaming anyone for buying from larger scale companies. thats ridiculous. Its like someone getting on to you about shopping at Walmart, because its cheaper and more convenient than a farmers market. LOL. I do hope that I can invest more money into my outfits so I can support small business and my friends who aspire to make fashion! its so fun when you feel unique and special at the function.

[@EmmaKapotes]

ChristyKay totally agree! There are definitely some bigger companies that don’t have the best history which is why people don’t like them, but in general I don’t think it’s bad to buy from some of there bigger companies every now and then. You will definitely have more of a chance of running into someone in the same outfit tho haha

[@lynettekeyser1513]

Hi Emma, a company in South Africa, have actually started making rave,edc etc clothes from plastic. Something else you could look into, not sure if there are companies that do that already in America.

[@tekatonix]

Your assumptions are wrong. We got Corona Virus and no festivals

[@piablllll]

Is it too obsessive of me to have ALL my outfits completely planned for my favourite festival already? Like literally from the socks to the hairclips etc! It‘s 5 more months, but I have every single item that I‘m gonna buy and order online saved in an excel sheet lmao. That‘s being said I‘ve had all of that planned for probably 2 months by now and I‘m constantly changing the outfits. I bet by July I have four totally different outfits than I do now. Festival fashion is my faaaavvvvvv can‘t freaking wait for spring/summer 🦋

[@bri1317]

😂 I’m like that also! I have my outfits saved on a wishlist and ready to buy, all down from what type of makeup I’ll be doing, what accessory will go in my hair for which outfit! So yes I’m all with you I love planning for my outfits. I also save them every year just to reminisce 😊

[@girlingothamcity]

Girl I can RELATE! I plan my outfits in power point so I can see it all together lmao

[@MsRosie_D]

I’m pretty new to EDM fests and culture, and I’ve just purchased tix to a bunch of club shows coming up. What do you suggest wearing to club shows?

[@EmmaKapotes]

MsAtomicBomb it depends on the dress code, but I usually go with jeans and a bodysuit or crop top! Usually black, but it depends on the show. I keep it kind casual & a little sexy 👌🏼

[@MsRosie_D]

My kind of style! Thanks, Emma!!! 💖

[@giapet4]

this is crazy bc a few days ago i just planned out both of my outfits for Beyond and every singe thing is from an etsy shops. i wanted to support small business and i wanted to make sure i'm not supporting any child labor.

[@elizabethhaley5964]

I just went to contact in Canada and both my outfits were reflective! Everybody was wearing it!! Its super gender neutral so both boys and girls were wearing the same pants and stuff! And neon was a HUGE trend for 2019 especially the summer

[@HANGWITHBRE]

Just seeing this in my watch later LOLOL how sadly this progressed :(((((((

[@Damien4Destruction]

Just my opinion on the pressure of shopping with smaller businesses: IMO if you can find something unique or cute from a smaller business or artist then that’s awesome. Do I think you should spend your entire day scrolling Etsy? No! I’ve bought things from Etsy, but I personally DIY most of my items. Etsy can be very pricy even from smaller people. I understand the time it takes to put things together, so I’m not knocking that. I just don’t have the extra coin after festival tickets, sleeping accommodations, food, etc. I may buy some scarfs or small things from amazon or iheartraves because it is so cheap. I’m sorry but no one should have to feel the pressure to buy from someone smaller. For certain things that’s the way to go, but I don’t think anyone should be shamed for buying from any source.

[@marianaramirez3828]

I like reflective clothing but doesnt look good in photos... 👀

[@ladywavy3759]

I am a sucker for platforms! I have like 5 pair and waiting on 3 in the mail🤤 I like them cuz they make me so much taller but if everyone hops on this trend-how am I gonna see!? Lol

[@ladywavy3759]

Also butterflys are taking over this next year of rave culture

[@ANTH0NY.VII.]

You should talk about stuff for guys cuz guys only wear basic things like shorts and shirt or no shirt

[@EmmaKapotes]

Anthony Hernandez i just put out a video on guys rave & festival clothing ideas!

[@steviepii]

Try ElectroThreads, rage nation, vibedration, and Elevated Lyfe. My current favorites besides the all mighty Amazon.

[@Joshmarmolejo_]

So much leopard print this hear. Hahaha

[@brittanyrebelo5702]

Can ANYONE recommend a good rave shoe?? I dance and shuffle all day and need a good shoe.. every festival I've had has been ruined after the festival and it's getting kind of expensive having to buy new shoes after every one 😅 like the sole of my shoes either comes right out or there's a hole in the shoe lol

[@littleflower6928]

Who’s going to beyond wonderland 2020???

[@youngjm1]

wtf is the point of disliking lmao? just press the back button or something... I am so confused

[@sarahcaple9278]

Besides the price point, shopping from small businesses isn't really an option for plus size/curvy bodies. From my experience the only inclusive festival/rave wear companies are the big brands everyone already knows.

[@EMILYSRILAVONG]

Don't feel bad about anything! Buy and wear whatever you want! Can't please everyone...

[@brittanyrebelo5702]

This is me! I've been sorta making my own rave attire.. I always feel weird cause all the other girls have these amazing festival outfits and then me haha. But I try to do what I can!

[@adrieecontreras7669]

Absolutely not girl you shouldn’t feel that way that you have to know about small businesses I think you put out good content

[@Kincrimson]

Masks i guess..
