When it comes to dressing for Coachella, Vanessa Hudgens always understands the assignment. While we have yet to see an epic get-up from her for the 2023 outdoor music festival, we’re still keeping our fingers crossed that she might attend its next weekend’s set!
In the meantime, we’re taking a trip down memory lane and recalling our favorite outfits that she has rocked for the festival in recent years. With that said, let’s take a look back at her chic sheer mesh dress, brown swimsuit and combat boots look from last year:
It’s clear to see that the former High School Musical star took the fan-given ‘Queen of Coachella’ title very seriously over the years, as she often wears the figurative (most likely flower) crown with pride. We weren’t shocked to see that the Tick, Tick… Boom! actress dominated in the sartorial stakes with her figure-flaunting, boho chic ensemble!
The Spring Breakers actress more than likely turned a few heads when she arrived at the festival in a stunning see-through silver mesh dress by Natalia Fender, specifically the brand’s ‘Midas Mini Chain Dress’ in ‘Rhodium.’ This piece was reportedly handmade from more than 900 feet of linked chain. Wow! Underneath it, she wore a cutout brown swimsuit from Triangl (the label’s ‘Cece’ one-piece in ‘Jene Sparkle’) that left very little to the imagination peeking through.

The brunette beauty accessorized her casual, bohemian, yet undeniably risqué look with a Free People straw hat (always on the Coachella must-wear list for both sun-blocking and also fashion purposes!), a Valentino boho-inspired cross-body bag, black platform Prada boots, and some oversized sunglasses from Sunday Somewhere. And we are obsessed with her decision to wear her hair in voluminous curls; an unexpected yet extremely appreciated styling choice!
Vanessa’s jewelry game was strong too, of course, as she wore a chain necklace layered with a longer necklace, and also wore several rings on her fingers. And speaking of her fingers, Vanessa ensured that her talons were Coachella ready too, with one hand displaying a shocking pink manicure, and the other rocking a neon green one. We love the attention to detail in this expertly-thought-out outfit! Will anyone be able to steal Vanessa’s best dressed at Coachella crown? Only time will tell, but we doubt it…
