Reuniting for the first time since 2019, Coachella's attendees and performers decided to party like it was 1599, rocking their best chainmail-inspired looks to the Empire Polo Club. From Harry Styles' sparkly, multi-chrome jumpsuit to the queen of Coachella herself, Vanessa Hudgens, sporting a slinky silver dress, the chainmail trend seemingly ruled the valley this year – and our festival fashion Pinterest boards.
