From clothes to accessories to the essential extras, here’s everything you need for a summer of music, food and entertainment

Friday 14 April 2023   By Chloe Lawrance

With the arrival of Coachella this weekend, festival season has officially made its return for the summer. We’ll be kicking things off with Soho Desert House, our pop-up just six miles from the festival site, with unlimited food and drink, DJs and more across the weekend. Come July, we’ll also be hosting Soho House Festival, two separate days of music acts, entertainment, and all the signature, unlimited food and drinks you know and love.

All that is to say that festival season really is an essential part of the summer months. And with it comes a key consideration: what to wear. Festival dressing is a fine art, after all. So, for this week’s Hot List, we’ve selected our festival season favourites – from warm weather essentials to colourful accessories that will add the finishing touches to your look.
