Get Fruity!! Fancy Dress Inspiration for Shindig Festival ’19

19 May, 2019 | Festival Themes, Style

Next weekend is the official start to my summer festival season (!!) This year I’m swapping out my usual trusty summer opener, Love Saves the Day, with my first ever Shindig Festival… which is handily still only an hour down the road from me in Bristol!

Of course I love a bit of dress up and I especially love a good theme (organised fun is the best kind of fun ofc) so one of the things I’m most excited for at Shindig is their 2019 fancy dress theme… ‘Get Fruity!!’

Here’s a bit of fruity festival inspiration…

This moodboard is brought to you by towering tropical headpieces, zesty creative make-up and my favourite watermelon Fantale Fan! Find all the original image sources on the pinterest board here.

Some fruity festival fancy dress inspiration

The fruitiest of headpieces (and faces!) kindly lent to me by Neat Frontage along with an amazing grass catsuit you can just about see… photo by Chris Cooper.

I’m still not quite sure what I’m going to go as… Maybe a banana in homage to my football team? Or perhaps a full fruit salad? Find out next weekend, I’ll be covering the festival for the wonderful Where’s My Tent blog!

    Really funny and beautiful things I have seen ever. You gather a crazy collection and bring to front us. Next weekend me and my girlfriend going out to enjoy some moments together. And I try this item with her. She looks more attractive with it.

    Really loved the mix of classic and quirky fruit costumes in this post! The pineapple jumpsuit idea is definitely going on my shortlist for this year’s festival. Do you think it would work for a daytime set or is it more suited for evening parties?

    It’s the kind of list that gives you ideas you wouldn’t think of on your own. In another thread, I noticed people talking about Qdoba as a solid option for customizable meals, and a few mentioned looking for coupons to cut down the cost. It wasn’t directly related to gifts, but it came up naturally in a general conversation. https://qdubaamenus.com/qdoba-coupons/

    Really love the creativity in these fruity costume ideas! I’m heading to a similar festival this summer and was stuck on what to wear, so this gave me some great inspiration. Do you think a pineapple costume would be too warm for dancing all day?

    Great ideas for festival fancy dress! I’m heading to Shindig for the first time this year, so this post is super helpful—I was stuck on what to wear. Do you think a full banana suit would be too sweaty for the dance floor, or should I stick with a pineapple hat instead?

    Great suggestions! I’ve been trying to figure out what to wear to Shindig this year, and I love the idea of a lemon costume—it’s fun but still easy to move around in. Do you think a full fruit suit would be too warm for the daytime sets, or is it manageable?

    The group ideas are the most fun part here: one balloon-covered grape beside bananas, pineapples, and a whole fruit salad would read instantly across a crowd. A full banana suit might be warm for daytime dancing, but a sculptural fruit headpiece with a breathable outfit underneath seems like a great compromise. I also like that many of these pieces could be rearranged for a different theme later.
