Glastonbury 2011 is officially in full swing (mud, rain and all included) and the fashion police have been out and about patroling the attendees who will be inspiring us for the remainder if the summer months.
Hot off the press this weekend, however, is the fact that Kate Moss has been voted as being the best dressed festival goer at Glastonbury back in 2005. Mossy paved the way to short shorts (yeah thanks for that one love!) edgy studded detailing and, of course, the ultimate festival must have; the Hunter wellies.
The winning look is said to have influenced many festival goers outfit choices today, from celebs such as Jameela Jamil and Pixie Lott been inspired by the catwalk model.
So how can you get this look too I hear you ask? Well whether your at Glastonbury or are planning on attending the many other festivals throughout the year or even if you just fancy nipping to your local shops a la Moss, be sure to head to River Island for some copycat pieces.
Notice Kate Moss' cute little buttoned up waistcoat? River Island have a close match at £40, but what an investment piece as a waistcoat can add a new look to a dress, or put a smarter spin on workwear too.
These short shorts are perfect for the festival season - short enough to catch a tan on those pasty legs (if your lucky and get the sun that is!) and catch the essence of Kate's winning festival look at just £24.99
Don't be afraid to toughen up your look by shopping in the menswear section as you will find rougher and edgier pieces like this studded leather belt £19.99 Wear it like Kate; slung low on the hips.
The studded leather bag £29.99 is also a must have item. Small enough to not get in the way of your raving but still plenty of room to fit in your esessentials like your camera, sun cream and whatever else you may want to hold close to you.
