With a new, fast-increasing trend, festival dress has taken a daring turn. US influencers Lele Pons and Hannah Stocking are leading the way in using metallic breastplates that look as though they have melted and been moulded to the body at Coachella. These breastplates, also known as the “melting top” trend, have drawn the interest of festival-goers worldwide and are expected to become the newest big thing in festival attire.

These avant-garde tops were made-to-order by Jacque Label, the designer who created them. Pons and Stocking opted for the gold and silver variants for their Coachella debut, dressing them down with denim shorts, shiny boots, and sleek hairstyles that pulled their hair away from their faces. The metallic polish and melting appearance of the tops give them a distinctive aspect that makes them appear to be a second skin. They gained popularity immediately, and many wanted to know how they were manufactured.

Festival-goers have taken to the melting metallic breastplate trend, which some belief may rival the glitter boob craze that became popular in 2018. Despite the conflicting opinions expressed online, the trend is very appealing, especially to those looking for a daring and edgier festival look.

Customers can select their chosen colour and size when ordering tops from Jacque Label, which are made-to-order. The designer charges $500 for each shirt, with some critics scratching their heads. Concerns about these tops’ comfort have also been raised by some users, who point out that the fabric and design may cause them to sweat excessively.

It remains to be seen if the melted metallic breastplate trend will catch on as anticipated as festival season approaches. Many individuals have expressed interest in trying out the movement due to the attention that Pons and Stocking’s Coachella ensembles produced. Festival fashion is evolving, with designers and influencers pushing the edges of what is deemed trendy, regardless of whether the trend will become popular or remain a niche aesthetic.

In addition to the melted metallic breastplate trend, Coachella attendees wore micro shorts and skirts, crop tops for both sexes and heeled boots. The event continues to be a hub for bold and unique fashion trends, with attendees expressing themselves through their attire.

The melting metallic breastplate trend has given festival clothing a daring new look. Although it is still being determined if it will catch on as a general trend, Pons and Stocking’s Coachella ensembles’ attention indicates that it may do so. Fashion lovers should anticipate seeing more daring and avant-garde outfits on display as the festival season approaches.
