I could not think of a more appropriate choice of dress than this lady’s caught yesterday on the last day of the Strawberry Festival.

The Strawberry Festival might be the most popular music event in Beijing and is quite the catwalk. Perhaps the key street fashion event of the year, this past weekend’s Strawberry at Tongzhou Canal Park brought 130 artists and Djs to six stages over three days together with thousands of quirkily dressed revelers. Here on Stylites, the next ten or so posts will show off all their colors, while noting some key trends that emerged.

This pictures seems representative of the better-dressed couples at Beijing music festivals. The girls tend to be slightly dressy whereas the boys adopt more of a street wear type of look.

The International Labor Day holiday always means music festivals in Beijing and this year there were at least three major ones competing for the attention of music fans, hipsters, and party-animals.

The China Music Valley Festival (中国乐谷音乐季) held this long weekend in gathered at the Yuyang International Ski resort in Beijing’s Ping Gu district was worth the 1.5 hour long journey. The second day’s headliners The Editors, Ladytron and KT Tunstall attracted a diverse crowd that included families, fashionistas and fancy dressed British expats.
