Thousands of scantily clad revelers in crisp T-shirts, bikini tops, shorts and even fairy wings flocked to one of Melbourne’s most anticipated summer music festivals.

The huge crowd of young Australians descended on The Park in Flemington on Saturday to attend the iconic St. Jerome’s Laneway Festival.

Music lovers were in high spirits as they enjoyed an incredible lineup from big names in music including Stormzy, Dominic Fike, Steve Lacy, Faye Webster and Cordae.

Revelers partied in the sunshine as temperatures reached a balmy 28C, with some opting for comfort in sportswear and trainers, while others wore summery outfits.

Some even chose to accessorize their outfits with fury boots, scarves, blonde wings and long hair extensions.

It comes after thousands of revelers flocked to Adelaide’s Laneway Festival on Friday, strutting their stuff in their summer fashion best in bikini tops, midriffs, shorts and sportswear.

The mercury soared to 29C in the city center’s Bonython Park on Friday as the smile-filled, friendly crowd enjoyed the festival.

Cheyanne Howard, Nevaeh Luke and Piper Monfries captured the theme of the day, with the happy ladies decked out in bikinis and shorts paired with sneakers and boots.

Cheyanne rocked a sheer white dress over her blue and white bikini and all three ladies wore a cool pair of sunglasses on their heads.

Meanwhile, Eowyn Hannan, Maayan Whittaker and Alex Wallace showed off the exposed midriff theme, with all three decked out in light, airy tops cut above the navel, cropped jeans and then shoes.

Alex sported long black boots to give her more of a cowgirl look.

Shorts, whether shorts or cutoff jeans, also dominated among men.

At the gates of the music festival it was common to see police officers with sniffer dogs on Saturday.

Michael Paul, standing with Yasmin Paul and Kian Paul, looked like the epitome of summer in blue and white striped shorts, a dark button-down shirt and white shoes.

Yasmin and Kian wore the look of the day: short jeans and crop tops.

Some of the men, however, did not have such a tight fit and displayed a “daggy” look of loose long pants and daggy shirts.

Outlandish fashion choices also permeated the scene.

A couple of lads were seen wearing matching ‘skeleton’ outfits along with charmingly odd sunglasses and hats.

A distinctive ‘hippie’ aesthetic was also present, a reflection of the freedom that a summer music concert offers.

Some festival-goers presented a playful fashion sense, with a trio seen together presenting a wonderful contrast of styles.

Friday was a hot day in Adelaide, but nowhere near the levels of the Sydney Laneway outing, which saw temperatures reach 30 degrees in Olympic Park.

Maya Castronini, Zara Parletta and Marietta Lalidis held large blue hand fans to beat the heat.

In addition to keeping things cool, the fans looked splendid as elegant accessories.

After a series of successful shows in Australia’s capital cities, Laneway Festival will conclude in Perth on Sunday.
