Ponchos - my lovely woolly poncho. It's perfect because it doubles as a blanket to sit on. Also my military waterproof poncho, bought it before 2010 and it never saw light of day until 2011. It's all packed away nicely and hoping not to make it out of the 'wet weather' Glasto bag again next year

The dress I am wearing in my profile picture. I love this dress and have never quite been able to throw it out. I used to wear it all the time, but it is far too young for me to wear anywhere but festivals now! I can't work out either why I have these clothes rules for every day life, or why I think they don't apply once I get my tent up!

Also - to be fair, there is a mode of dress that I find practical for Glastonbury that I wouldn't wear anywhere else - and that is the "shorts & tights" look that in the real world only works on teenage girls. It is a look I really like, but would make me look like a bag lady if I wore in Birmingham. At Glastonbury tho - it works so well on so many levels. In wet & muddy conditions the tights dry quickly so you're no left with soggy jeans/cargos/trousers for hours, but at the same time, provide more protection from the elements and wellie rash than bare legs (and also protect the world from the full horror of my knees!). At the same time, they are small, light and uncreasable to pack! That is my excuse for dressing up as someone a third of my actual age anyway!

Shorts and tights or skirt and tights. Scarf (for keeping warm / keeping sun off back of neck / keeping dust off face). Walking trainers. Hat to keep the sun off and stop anyone seeing how vile my unwashed hair is.

i'm eagerly awaiting the first

'my monkey onesie' or 'flower headbands and diamond bindis'

My faithful Levis combat shorts, worn at every Glasto I've been to and with loads of pockets, 4 of which are large enough to carry a 2 litre drink bottle (although I wouldn't be able to walk very far with a bottle in all of them at once!). And my waterproof, wide brimmed Bramah hat, which can be folded up and stuffed in a pocket when the sun comes out. Ahhh, can't wait......

I usually dress a bit more confidently, i.e. not wearing tights with dresses/short skirts, but that's about it really (aside from the obligatory tutu). I also wear the dress I get for my birthday which is just before Glasto.

I wear pretty much the same as I do when not at the festival. Shorts, polo shirt, hoodie. The only item I wear at Glastonbury but don't wear at home are knee high socks, you can roll the down during the day then pull them up at night to keep your legs warm.

    • If you didn't see melt banana at Apolo. Go see them at the festival. Insane. 
    • Interesting, and thanks for coming back to give an update! I've seen that the second stage looks bigger than usual too, looks to be a Serious Stages - Stellar Stage from distance photos.    Seems like sizing wise stages have been scaled up somewhat this year.
    • I see its cancelled now but they did leave it really late to announce plus they are up against Kelburn Garden Party Festival not to far from the festival site.
    • Easily my favourite set of the day.
