Singer Ella Mai revealing her must-have fashion pieces for festival season. The “Boo’d Up” singer regularly headlines festivals and has a plethora of knowledge about what works for a day out in the sun. Mai told Pop Sugar UK that whether you are on the stage or in the audience festival fashion is all about functionality.
“Anything with frills, a lot of glitter, some shorts, and some trainers. You’ve got to be comfy, for sure, otherwise, it’s going to be a nightmare!” she told Pop Sugar.
Another fashion piece Ella Mai focuses on is her jewelry. She mentioned that she doesn’t like to wear “super statement” pieces on stage regarding accessories. She’s an ambassador for jewelry brand Pandora and says she loves how it fits her performing needs.
“I don’t wear super statement pieces, and I think Pandora fits that perfectly. You can layer, you can add stuff, you can make it way more than if you just had one piece,” she added.
Our 21Ninety team has curated a shopping list of items based off of Ella Mai’s advice on festival essentials.
