At Coachella 2025, bold bikini trends took center stage, with influencers and celebrities embracing daring outfits, while critics voiced their disapproval of the skimpy fashion choices.
The bold bikini trend dominates Coachella 2025
Coachella 2025 opened with a bold fashion statement: bikini-clad festival-goers confidently embraced the trend of “bringing back the boobs.”
Influencers like Alix Earle led the charge, sporting barely-there tops to celebrate the carefree spirit of the music festival.
Earle, 24, declared, “We’re bringing back the boobs this year,” as she wore a coin-jeweled bikini top before Charli XCX’s performance on Day 2.
Earle, with just a bikini top between her skin and the desert heat, proudly showed her cleavage to 7.4 million TikTok followers, setting the tone for the event.
The heat didn’t stop the fashion statements
Despite the 102-degree temperatures, attendees weren’t shy about flaunting their daring outfits.
Coachella 2025 featured a variety of bold styles, from animal prints to psychedelic tie-dye and triangle bikini cuts.
Celebrities like Victoria Justice, Becky G, and Dixie D’Amelio joined in, adding to the buzz around the skimpy trend.
Not everyone is a fan of the skimpy trend
While many festival-goers embraced the bold look, some critics weren’t shy about sharing their distaste.
Comments on social media called the outfits “icky,” with one critic questioning, “WTF are these Coachella outfits and why are they all half-naked?”
Others complained about the lack of coverage, calling the fashion “boring” or inappropriate for such a renowned festival.
Despite the criticism, influencers like Maura Higgins, 34, received praise for their outfits.
Higgins’ cowboy-inspired bikini set, which showcased her ample cleavage and bold style, earned her accolades like “Best Coachella Outfit of 2025.”
Coachella 2025: a festival of fashion and freedom
The bikini trend, whether praised or criticized, was a central theme at Coachella 2025.
Festival-goers keep pushing fashion boundaries, making Coachella not just a music festival, but a platform for bold fashion statements.
