Festival season has landed, and whether it’s iconic Worthy Farm, Beyoncé’s latest London takeover, or a field up north with a rogue techno ceilidh, Field Grey has been out soaking up the music, and a lot of good outfit energy.
Burberry kicked things off in true British style with a campaign shot on the Glastonbury site. A series of portraits include hip young things, 90s legends like Goldie and Liam Gallagher wearing trench coats, checked kilts and Harrington jackets.
In fact, Liam wore his own Burberry parka from Christopher Bailey’s Spring/Summer 2018 collection for the shoot – a piece soon to be reissued in a limited run, landing in-store and online this July.
Closer to home, we’ve been digging out vintage gems, putting together outfits with what we’ve got, and channeling Mossy nostalgia. Here’s what we’ve been wearing (and dancing in) this summer.
Amie at Glastonbury: Y2K revival
For her first Glastonbury, Field Grey designer Amie channelled the ultimate 2000s festival icon: Kate Moss. Think golden lurex, statement belts and, of course, mud-splattered boots. Her hero piece was a one-shoulder cream and gold knit dress from our founder Janice Turner’s 1996 RCA graduate show – bravely revived for a very stylish comeback in the fields of 2025.
“I’m inspired by those early It-girl moments – Sienna, Alexa, Kate,” says Amie. “There’s something timeless about the mix of grunge and glamour.” She layered the dress with a vintage suede tassel jacket, sourced from Vinted. A Y2K boho belt completes the throwback look, while hiking shoes were an obligatory sensible addition. “Glasto is a marathon,” she says. “Comfort is key!”
Thomas at Beyoncé: customised cowboy
For his two-night stint (yes, two) at Totenham Hotspur Stadium to see Queen Bey herself, designer Thomas took inspiration straight from the source: Cowboy Carter. Where Renaissance was pure futurism, this tour is all about American roots reimagined.
“I wanted to pay homage to the Western themes of the album while giving it a sparkle Beyoncé would be proud of,” he says. Thomas customised his denim vest with star patches and diamanté trim, while cowboy boots and a wide-brimmed hat completed the look. Most of the pieces came from his own wardrobe, lovingly upcycled.
“I’ve been a Beyoncé fan since Destiny’s Child,” he says. “This tour felt like a celebration of Black country music, of heritage, of joy. It was incredible to be part of it. We ended up getting tickets for the second night and 15 friends from all over the world came over. It felt like our own little festival.”
Anna at Moovin Festival: rave spirit
Up north in the rolling hills of Whitebottom Farm near Stockport, our digital content manager Anna tried out Moovin Festival – an independent weekender with a heavy-hitting line-up and laidback vibe.
The outfit: a printed top, battered denim shorts, and chunky boots with green detailing that happened to match the print. “I didn’t overthink it. Everything ended up green, so we’re calling that a theme,” she says.
A pale green Nike cap and a colour-block Sweaty Betty mac (yes, more green) were on standby for the rain – which made a blink and you’ll miss it appearance.
“As a former 90s raver, the line-up was right up my street,” she says. “DJ Paulette, Derrick Carter and even a techno ceilidh – chaos, but brilliant fun.” The standout moment? “Ezra Collective’s closing set. Pure, unadulterated joy.”
