There's no better feeling than dancing through a summer night with your favorite band playing live. But before you hit the venue or sprawl out on the lawn, there’s one very important decision to make: what are you going to wear?
Whether you're grooving at a music festival, headed to a country show in cowboy boots, attending a pop concert at a packed stadium, or going to a laid-back indie show in the park, you want to stay cool (literally and figuratively), be comfortable enough to dance for hours, and of course, serve a look that makes you stand out in the crowd.
The best concert outfits combine personality with practicality. You’ll need breathable, summery pieces (think: flowy dresses, blouses, and denim shorts), a venue-approved bag, and comfy shoes that can survive dancing the night away. And of course, a little sparkle or fringe never hurt anyone. And since Alex and Paige are all too familiar with this, why not take some tips from them? Here are five summer concert outfit ideas inspired by the Drummond ladies!
Step Out in Sparkles
Shine bright and steal the spotlight at your next concert with a sparkly dress! Perfect for pop concerts or festivals under the stars, these dazzling outfits catch the light and give the perfect touch of glam to your look. Pair your sparkly dress with comfortable sneakers or edgy boots for a chic yet practical vibe, and keep accessories minimal to let your outfit do all the talking. Whether it’s sequins, glitter, or metallic fabrics, a sparkly dress ensures you’ll feel like a star all night long!

A denim skirt or shorts paired with a cute top is the ultimate concert combo for effortless style!

Add some statement accessories like Alex and Paige: a funky belt, dangling earrings, comfy sneakers or boots, and you’re ready to sing your heart out!

Style a Summer Dress
Dresses allow for freedom of movement, making them an ideal choice for dancing! Opt for a dress that matches the concert's vibe—sundresses for outdoor alt shows or an edgy mini for a rock show. Of course, you can also channel Alex and wear a flowy number with statement cowboy boots for a country concert. Toss a denim jacket over your shoulder for when the sun goes down and you'll look every bit as good as the music sounds.

Go Boho
Breezy maxi dresses, billowing skirts, peasant tops, and crochet everything are your go-tos for any folk and indie gigs or outdoor festivals and park shows where you'll be lounging on blankets and soaking up the sun. Pair your outfit with strappy sandals, sneakers, or ankle boots, and don’t forget to accessorize with layered necklaces, wide-brim hats, round sunnies, or a chic crossbody bag.

Jam Out in Jeans
Whether you're rocking out or swaying to a mellower tune, an outfit consisting of jeans and a pretty blouse ensures you stay fashionable without sacrificing practicality. Choose skinnies, flares, or even baggy jeans to match the energy of the event, then throw on a cute top to add a touch of sophistication. Finish it off with your favorite accessories and comfy shoes, so you can sway (or stand or sit) the show away.
