St Jerome’s Laneway Festival: Thousands of music lovers let loose at summer concert in Melbourne

Thousands of scantily clad partygoers in light shirts, bikini tops, shorts and even fairy wings flocked to one of Melbourne’s most anticipated summer music festivals.

The huge crowd of young Aussies descended on The Park in Flemington on Saturday for the iconic St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival.

Music lovers were in high spirits as they enjoyed an incredible line-up of big music names including Stormzy, Dominic Fike, Steve Lacy, Faye Webster and Cordae.

Revelers partied in the sunshine as temperatures reached a warm 28°C, with some opting for comfort in activewear and sneakers, while others wore summer outfits.

Some even chose to accessorize their outfits with fury boots, scarves, fancy wings and long hair extensions.

It comes after thousands of partygoers flocked to Adelaide’s Laneway Festival on Friday, showing off their best summer fashion with bikini tops, midriffs, shorts and activewear.

The mercury rose to 29 degrees Celsius at Bonython Park in the city center on Friday as the crowd, full of smiles and high on friendship, enjoyed the festival.

Cheyanne Howard, Nevaeh Luke and Piper Monfries captured the theme of the day, with the fun ladies dressed in bikini tops and shorts, teamed with trainers and boots.

Cheyanne wore a sheer white dress over her blue and white bikini and all three ladies wore cool sunglasses on their heads.

Eowyn Hannan, Maayan Whittaker and Alex Wallace, meanwhile, showed off the exposed midriff theme, with all three decked out in light, airy tops that peaked above the belly button, denim shorts and then shoes.

Alex wore long black boots to give more of a cowgirl look.

Shorts, both shorts and cut-offs, also dominated among men.

Michael Paul, standing next to Yasmin Paul and Kian Paul, looked the epitome of summer in breezy blue and white striped shorts, a dark button-up shirt and white shoes.

Yasmin and Kian wore the look of the day: short jeans and short tops.

However, some men were not as toned and sported a ‘daggy’ look of loose long trousers and daggy shirts.

Crazy fashion choices also permeated the scene.

A few guys were seen in matching skeleton suits, along with charmingly bizarre sunglasses and hats.

There was also a distinctly ‘hippie’ aesthetic present, reflecting the freedom that a summer music concert provides.

Some festival goers had a playful fashion sense, with a trio spotted together presenting a beautiful contrast in styles.

It was a warm day in Adelaide on Friday, but it didn’t reach the levels seen at Sydney Laneway, where temperatures in the Olympic Park reached the mid-30s.

Maya Castronini, Zara Parletta and Marietta Lalidis held large blue portable fans to beat the heat.

The fans not only stayed cool, but also looked great as elegant accessories.

After a series of successful shows in Australia’s capitals, the Laneway Festival concludes in Perth on Sunday.
