What Is A Rave?
If you’re new here and you’re like “… WTF even is a rave?” Don’t stress, gf, we’ll break it down for you.
Essentially, a rave is the epitome of self-expression and having a good time. Think all night parties, live music, lots of lights, high-energy dancing the whole nine. This is why it’s important to choose your outfit carefully, because you’re gonna be in it ALL night, of course. You want something you can move around and stay cool in, but also look hot AF doing so.
10 Rave Outfit Ideas
Flower Power Flair
This is one of our favorite looks because it’s SO unique. This handmade chain flower top features a sunflower beaded neckline and little charms attached all over words truly don’t do it justice, you NEED to look for yourself.
The creator of the top does say that it needs to be treated more like jewelry rather than a top itself, so we recommend wearing a plain black halter top underneath. Adding on these flower power bell bottoms really elevates the look, bringing out the tiny accessories in the top even more.
We’re going full sunflower field with this one. Throw on this sunflower headband and these clay flower earrings for some added oomph!
Sexy in Black
For our girls who love an all-black ‘fit, but want to stay cool, this is the look for you. Start with this Drop the Beat cutout top, which is edgy, black, sexy, and chic.
You can pair the top with these high waisted black shorts, this genie skirt, and these black lace up booties to finish it off. Can’t you see yourself headbanging or vibing in this look?
You didn’t think we forgot about accessories, did you??? This pink silk scrunchie adds some color and girl power! To add a little extra femininity without compromising your edgy look, rock these silver heart hoops.
Glow Baby Glow
When we found this rainbow reflective O-ring top, we knew we struck gold. In natural light, it has this killer liquid metal look to it, BUT in rave lighting??? It’s the night time neon look of our dreams. Like… it literally glows. Suuuper fitting, obviously.
Because the top will be the eye-catcher of the outfit, we can keep it a little simpler with the rest of this look. These slash cutout pants are subtle enough to not take attention away from the top, while still giving modern flair to elevate it a bit.
As for accessories, these iridescent heart earrings match the vibe perfectly. Pair it with a clear bag and you’re ready to GLOW!
Cowgirl Couture
Who said you can’t go with a western vibe at a rave? Not us, that’s for sure. This off the shoulder beaded coin top with matching sequined coins high waisted shorts is giving country chic meets rave ready baddie.
And what’s a cowgirl without her Harness boots? To accent the gold coins on the outfit, we found these french rope hoop earrings, this spiral pendant necklace, and, this super chic charm belt that we LOVE.
If you want to keep it a little more rave and a little less western, throw on these leg wraps! Or just wear all of it TBH is there even such a thing as over-accessorizing at a rave???
Bringing Out The Animal
It’s fair to say that raves bring out the inner animal in us… party animals, at least 😏 Who would we be to not include some sort of animal print in our rave wear recommendations???
This Cheetah Liberty bodysuit is a MUST have when you’re going for an animal-esc aesthetic. If you want more of a revealing look, you can’t go wrong with snagging these mesh short chaps. If you prefer something with a little more coverage, these sheer pleated pants still look just as vibey.
To add some fun accessories to an already fun outfit, we always root for a chain belt on top of a look. Always. A chain belt and some classic gold hoops is alllll you need for this look.
All White Wonderland
In a land full of loud and bright outfits, you can stand out just as much with an all-white look. Plus, it leaves TONS of room to accessorize with exciting pops of color.
What these velvet pirate pants lack in color, they make up for in design. The three ruffle tiers scream “I didn’t come here to play”, and the large sleeves on the matching velvet bell sleeve cinch top compliment the pants SO much.
This is where the real fun comes in. This rhinestone neon cowboys hat that also lights up? Must have. This is a non-negotiable. Oh, and this light-up glow choker? You need. Hands down.
Maybe you don’t want to accessorize with light-up things and we get that! Don’t worry, we aren’t leaving you out. These psychedelic beaded earrings, this cord charm bracelet, and this neon necklace are just as fun!
Metallic Y2K Goddess
Remember the days watching Zenon and being OBSESSED with Protozoa??? Or, at least, do you remember when everything cool was metallic? That’s what we’re channeling here.
Let’s start from the top. This metallic micro tank is the perfect start to a super sexy, super futuristic look. These pucker-back bottoms match perfectly, but they are ULTRA-cheeky. If that’s not your vibe, stick with these metallic power pants!
For accessories, we’re obsessed with these super unique blue moon earrings. If you wanna lay low on accessories and let your outfit be the main attraction, these multi circle earrings are PERF. And you CAN’T forget to top the look off with this Holo Vinyl Garter belt!
Butterfly Queen
Rave outfits don’t always have to be bold statement colors and LED lights, they can be light and whimsical like this butterfly look.
This slashed skirt really fits the light and airy vibe we’re going for. You can match it with this Sol top if you want a cohesive white look, or this fun ruffle top for some natural pops of color.
To continue with the theme, we LOVE this iridescent butterfly waist chain. And these moonstone gold hoops aren’t too flashy, but compliment the look in the best way.
Neon Green Rave Look
Since we just did a lighter and brighter look, it’s only right to create a head to toe neon outfit, right???
This neon tube top is comfy, stretchy, AND chic. These v-back shorts are short enough to go under this mesh skater skirt perfectly, and if you REALLY wanna go 100% neon, this stars printed shrug is ready to be in your cart ASAP.
As far as accessories go, we recommended some hand painted neon flame press on nails, because really, the outfit is its own accessory. Annddd now you stole the show. Ta-da!
Holographic Baddie
Holographic outfits are rave must-haves. They’re eye-catching, fun, and really show out when the music starts and the lights hit.
This reversible lush top isn’t just holographic, it’s also the PERFECT lavender shade to bring some color to your look. These holo bottoms with garters make for an edgier appeal, or you can stick to these holographic bell bottoms if you want to play it safe.
These holographic butterfly wing earrings are to die for, and this holographic silver choker finishes off the look 1000%.
