Festival Fashion Victims

[Tugger2k]

I'm really tempted to buy a bumbag. It might make a nice little rolling table as well as carrying all my things

You cant see the kilt, but it was red, fashion victim or not, but it brought the ladies

[crimsonking]

Sounds intriguing, do you have a link?

I'll probably just carry my small backpack again (12 litre), bought one of those Hydration backpack things, but don't take the reservoir.

Sorry but I am a real fashion victim, I was drunk and did not see it coming. On a slightly more serious point in 2000 just as it was raining my wife and her mate pissed themselves laughting when they saw a young lady in the car park in white stiletos.

Avoid the t-shirts that say "I Facebooked Your Mum"

for some reason they make me want to set who ever is wearing them on fire..

I think I am gonna buy a couple of strappy floaty dresses this year. I am always dead envious of girls in dresses, I love the feeling of freedom a dress allows, especially around the swingers

I figure at glasto noone will bat an eyelid

[Chazeboy]

blokes in frocks are always a winner. be free in your floaty dress, let the breeze in about your ballbag.

No. Not a shame. If you've seen that moment in the Mighty Boosh where Howard takes his shirt off after killing the Killeroo in the boxing ring, you'd understand.

Chuck a net on 'im

fashion? since when did we bother about fashion lol. at my great advanced age of 56(comin up at a run to 57 lol) i wear what i want and to heck with the looks/comments. Its everyone's chance to let it all go and be as original as you can. We've seen guys wearin business suits,bowler hats and carryin briefcases, girls wearin bride/bridesmaid dresses, girls dressed as fairies, all still wearing either walkin boots/wellingtons. Weird and wonderful put togethers,or just plain old jeans n t shirt.

It's a very colourful scene and if ur into people watching, glastonbury's ur place. The first year we went,2007, was the first time in my LIFE that i'd ever paid over £100 for a dress n jacket. All my friends love it and iv never seen it ANYwhere else, although iv tried online,nae luck.

Theyre not all as expensive though, u can buy almost anything, although iv yet to see knickers n bras lol. mebbe theyre there SOMEwhere.

It feels to me like its my second childhood( sad huh lol) as i have the chance to do what i did as a kid. dress up in my ma's old frocks n high heels.

Dress how u want and cock a snook at those that laugh/point/sneer or whatever.theyve no got the gumption or bravery to do their own thing. The feeling of freedom is so good!

have fun folks

I wore a UV kilt last year, still to this day I have seen nobody wearing one! Maybe didn't stand out that much but definately unique! I'm ditching it this year though, just wearing a normal kilt.

theres a whole article on how to be fashionable at festivals >>HERE<<...

[Busterrr!]

Surely, the only people who aren't 'fashion victims', are those who don't follow the fashion.

And then because we all point the finger and snigger at them, they become just "victims."

Unless they are so unfashionable that they become the epitome of retro-cool, and become "retro-fashion victims."

Until that is they go beyond retro, eschewing cloth in favour of natures own design, and then everyone else becomes the victim.

So many victims at what is supposed to be an event of festivity, I almost feel sad.

this is why i love the lack of day ticket holders at glastonbury. by the fifth day, even the most hardened mirror gazer looks and smells like a mutt, and we can all hold hands and dance together in stinking fashion-free harmony

[jollynolly]

Pockets, pockets, pockets, are the only thing you need to carry every thing pixie pockets are a great invention. Stuff fashion

[chuckley]

u only become a fashion victim when u don't carry it with confidence.

but before anyone gets too excited and feels the urge to follow it to the word its for last year, so you may end up an un-fashionable victim

I do think that if what other people are wearing or not wearing comes into your mind , and what you should and shouldnt be wearing so not too look like 'something'

just having that thought process alone, may indicate you are a fashion victim.

Just wear what you wearand be done with it!

as long as your comfy and happy f**k every one else and there opinion . thats what I do most days unfortunatly for my kids
