This year, the festival expands its ties with long-time collaborator Anthropologie with the lifestyle brand taking up residence in the festival’s legendary Wardrobe Department – an area described as ‘basecamp for fashion imagination gone wild’ and curated by internationally renowned fashion critic Sarah Mower.

As part of the activities, Anthropologie will host a series of creative workshops for guests, including a pompom headband-making class. Anthropologie’s visual manager Zoe and Dustcloud Studio will be hand painting florals on leather coin purses, while renowned artist Mary Lynch will create life-size versions of her dolls capes.
