Models, Chris/BMG, Aisha/Elite; Makeup, Samantha Umsted; Stylist, Kevin Aeh

There are a couple of things you can count on when it comes to Lollapalooza. For some reason, G. Love & Special Sauce seem to play the music fest every year, and Lolla weekend always seems to be the hottest days of the summer. That doesn’t mean your style has to suffer, though. Taking fashion cues from some of the acts performing this year, we’ve found ways to dress cool while still looking, uh, cool.
