1. What to wear to an Elton john’s concert casually?
Before you start to panic and struggle should you go super costumey, DON’T OVERSTRESSED.
The truth is, you can wear whatever you want to Elton John’s concert!
Seriously, the crowd is a wild mix of everything from casual crop tops and jeans to dramatic rock star looks.
At the end of the day, it’s all about feeling comfy in what you are dressed. If you want to stay low-key, a vibrant print shirt always works wonders!
Concert reminder 1: First thing first: locate the Bathrooms and Water Fountains!
When you arrive, do a quick scout. Know where the less crowded bathrooms are (often upstairs or in far corners).
Find the water fountain to get free refills instead of buying $6 water bottles <3
Thanks me later!
2. Elton John winter concert look
Depending on the location, some of Elton John’s concerts take place in an open-air venue. In other words, always dress according to the weather.
When the days are chilly out there, throw on a warm fluffy coat so you can fully enjoy this rocket man slowly!
P.S. In summer, it’s best to bring a portable raincoat (from Amazon) just to play safe!

You have good taste and interesting soul because you love Elton John! <3 Please kindly share or pin some of these outfits so more tasteful fashion babes like you can enjoy this free resources, thanks love and virtual huggg!
3. Elton John-inspired white outfit + sunglasses
To get the Elton John-inspired look with minimal effort, signature glasses are THE exclamation mark of all time.
To recreate this outrageous all-white look, it’s actually way easier than you thought.
All you need is a pair of statement sequin sunglasses, a white biker jacket, and some flirty feather boa and you are good to go!
Concert reminder 2: The Merch Table Trick
Anyone heard of this trick? :p
The lines are longest right before the headliner goes on and immediately after the show ends. The best time to shop is often during the opening act.
You’ll have more selection and shorter lines.
And in some cases, some venues have outdoor merch booths you can hit on your way out.
4.… and MORE sunglasses!
Besides Elton John’s concerts, they are actually perfect for retro disco nights and Halloween parties.
Check out these Affordable cute pieces down below!
Concert reminder 3: Protect Your Personal Space lol
Be aware of your surroundings.
Keep your purse zipped and your drink in your hand, not sitting on a ledge.
If you’re in a tight GA crowd, create a small base with your feet to maintain balance.
5. Pull off a fun look with neutral shades
Bright tones aren’t your thing?
Well, that’s not to forget natural shades like beige and white can be equally fun too!
If you are petite like me, consider matching the top and shoes in a similar tone so your figure can be elongated from head to toe.
To maximize the effect, coordinated hats and shoes are my failproof pairing!
SIDE NOTE:
Don’t be shy and let’s go all-in with the feather to feel the most flamboyant!
Concert reminder 4: After the shoe – have a Post-Show Meeting Spot!
Designate a specific, easy-to-find spot outside the venue (e.g., “that big tree next to the B entrance”) to meet your group if you get separated in the exiting rush <3
6. Show Elton John your love
To express your love for Elton John to the fullest, embrace all the merch tees and hoodies!
I’ve found some popular and stylish ones from Amazon, check them out!
Concert reminder 5: Pre-Plan Your Ride Home
This is literally the concert survival tip lol
Ride-share prices will be surging dramatically, and public transport may have stopped. Have a backup plan.
7. Patterns and bold shades
When in doubt, embrace all the wild pants and fun shades!
While we may not have rainbow hair like this lady, at least we can copy her statement leopard top and flirty pink boots!
Regardless of your age, live in the wonderland!
Concert reminder 6: Hydrate and Rest and don’t plan anything intense the next day!
Concerts are literally a marathon. (Especially now I’m in my late 20s)
Drink plenty of water when you get home.
You might also want to take an anti-inflammatory (like ibuprofen) if you’ve been standing for hours to help with next-day soreness.
8. Rainbow prints are always in style
To let your colorful striped shirt shine, white is one of the best canvas.
This casual denim white x rainbow just looks as chic as it looks super refreshing.
LOVE.
Concert reminder 7: When in doubt, a Ziploc Bag!
Sounds weird and lowkey ugly, but it’s incredibly versatile!
It can protect your phone from a spilled drink, keep your merch dry if it rains, or hold your earplugs cleanly.
9. When in doubt, DUNGAREES
Regardless of your age, sometimes we just need to surprise ourselves with a busy print shirt and dungarees to squeeze more joy out of the concert night!

10. Vintage Halloween costume idea
Elton John outfit is not just about fashion, it’s a feeling.
To live that goofy fun, embrace all 70s and 80s whimsical patterns.
From the color block dress to star-spangled shirt to striped pants, you are bound to have the dreamiest time with your girl pals.
11.70s Elton John inspired retro look
Patterns from head to toe are too OTT for you? Get this halter top and flared-leg pants that scream “I am busy but I still have about fashion”.
Concert reminder 8: Bring Cash (But Not Too Much)
While most places are card-only, having a $20 bill can be magic for tipping merch table workers (gets you to the front faster) or buying a bottle of water from a lone vendor when card systems are down.
12. Fringe top + pink pants
Besides going all blink blink with the sequin dress, a fringe top is another popular choice as well! While you can team it with your regular blue mom jeans, I’d go for pink and be extra fun today. I mean, why not?
Is that just me but Elton John concert is the perfect excuse for having the pigtail buns!
13. High platform shoes
Whether you are wearing floor-length flared pants or just a cute A-line skirt, high-platform shoes are the perfect addition to any outfit!
And let’s not forget the concert can be so crowded, especially when the show ends and everyone is walking to the exit. If you don’t want someone to step on your feet, closed-toe shoes are your safe bet.
SIDE NOTE:
For my gorgeous ladies who want to look like a 10/10, I suggest you wear block heels instead of stilettos.
14. Elton John dodgers costume
Last but not least, the iconic Dodger costume!
