Australia's biggest music festival may already be a distant memory for some, but we are not ready to move on just yet!  Ah yes, 3 days of musical revelry under the magical Byron Bay skies - including massive headline acts from Lorde and Kendrick Lamar - but those of us stuck at home were forced to experience Splendour vicariously through our good ol' pal Instagram, feasting our eyes on all the beautiful, crazy and creative festival fashion. 
 
So, what's trending this year?! We've spotted feminine floral threads, paired back with black chunky belts and bags. Knee-high boots, along with statement layered jewels and colourful glitter.  Denim-on-denim, bumbags, flares. Hair extensions, braids, hair glitter. Many hats - straw hats, cowboy hats, elaborate headpieces, pageboy hats. And COLOUR!
 
We have scoured through festival goer's Insta pics to bring you our countdown of the 20 best dressed from Splendour in the Grass 2018!

"Okay, so you’re probably going, “Is this like a Noxzema commercial or what?” But seriously, I actually have a way normal life for a teenage girl."

THIS IS TOO GOOD. Clueless, anyone?
