Osheaga 2013: 70 festival style photos of crop tops, tie-dye prints and the best hat ever (YOLO!)

Is the August long weekend the end of music festival season? Say it ain’t so! However, in order to keep you in the spirit of summer festivals, we have a whole batch of street style snaps fresh from Osheaga 2013. The three-day indie festival is reaching peak popularity, with bands like Mumford & Sons, Vampire Weekend and Kendrick Lamar drawing fans from across the country to Montreal. And, thanks to the style-spotting eye of photographer Phil Birnbaum, it seems like the festival fashion at Osheaga is just as strong as the musical line-up. This may have something to do with the Osheaga’s downtown location, allowing attendees to stay in hotels rather than camping onsite.
(Our pick? Hotel Chez Swann, which was just a hop, skip and a jump—over the St. Lawrence—from Parc Jean-Drapeau.)
If you had any doubts about this season’s crop top trend being a thing, our Osheaga street style photos will convince you otherwise. From lacy bustiers to midriff-baring tanks, the crop top was certainly a popular style at Osheaga. Neon was also a hit, with both boys and girls spotting bright tie-dyed neon hats, tank tops and shorts. But the biggest trend at Oshega has to be the baseball cap. We spotted cherry tomato-printed hats, cool-girl florals and, best of all, a hat embroidered with everyone’s favourite phrase, YOLO.
