A music festival on a warm, sunny day is one of summer's joys. But what to wear? Too dressy and you'll be uncomfortable - but who wants to miss out on the fun of dressing up?

For a fabulous look that will last no matter how long you're dancing for, look for light, floaty dresses that won't get crumpled in the heat, or cute shorts that you can team with a sparkly top.

A hat is essential, heels are best avoided and make sure your foundation has a good SPF so that the only pink on your cheeks is from dancing. Here are some some fashion options:
