What Fashionable French Girls Wear to a Festival

What to wear to a festival? Let's start with welcoming you to the chicest music festival known to man: Calvi on the Rocks. On the coastlines of Corsica, an army of fashionable French girls (and no doubt guys) descend for six heavenly days of sunshine, electronic music, dreamy sunsets and good times. In the process, thanks to Instagram, we get to see some inspirational festival fashion too. Reminder: Must book tickets for next year.

This is not the kind of event where hippy headbands and faux-boho style takes charge—with the French fashion-savvy girls involved, it's expectedly more pared back and far more sophisticated than the usual. Think classy swimsuits, giant sun hats and perfect little sundresses, worn with mussed-up hair and probably accessorised with a bottle of Corona. 

Scroll down to see some of the hippest Instagram fashion moments from the festival—and shop for festival essentials if you now require a reboot…
