Coachella’s first weekend turned celebrity dressing into part of the main event, with Sabrina Carpenter’s headline performance, Hailey Bieber’s vintage Dior slip, and North West’s Balenciaga bag driving much of the style coverage on April 10 and April 11. (vogue.com) (teenvogue.com) Vogue’s running gallery of standout looks put Carpenter alongside festival attendees including Hailey Bieber, Charli XCX, and members of Katseye as Weekend 1 unfolded in Indio, California. Coachella’s first weekend runs April 10 through April 12, 2026, at the Empire Polo Club, with a second weekend scheduled for April 17 through April 19. (vogue.com) (coachellavalley.com) Carpenter’s set doubled as a fashion showcase. Coverage of her performance said she wore five custom Dior looks across a 90-minute headlining show after returning to the festival two years after her 2024 appearance. (yahoo.com) (billboard.com) Hailey Bieber’s most discussed look came from Christian Dior’s fall 1998 collection: a gold silk slip with pink trim, sourced from Tab Vintage and styled by Dani Michelle. Vogue said she wore it during Coachella weekend one while celebrating around her husband Justin Bieber’s Saturday, April 11 headlining set. (vogue.com) (usmagazine.com) North West arrived in a gray hoodie, plaid miniskirt layered over longer shorts, and boots, with Teen Vogue singling out her Balenciaga Le Cagole bag as the accessory anchoring the outfit. Teen Vogue reported the look during day one of Weekend 1, adding that the bag had already become part of her regular rotation. (teenvogue.com) The music schedule kept feeding the fashion conversation. Coachella’s published running order listed Labrinth for the Outdoor Theatre at 8:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 11, one of the performances local coverage tied to the festival’s mix of concerts, parties, and brand events. (thescenestar.com) (pressenterprise.com) That mix has become standard Coachella coverage, where stage costumes, offstage outfits, and sponsor-hosted activations share space with reviews of the sets themselves. Vogue framed its slideshow as a watchlist for both headliners and spectators, while the Press-Enterprise’s Saturday report centered on “Bieberchella” crowds, parties, and branded pop-ups around the grounds. (vogue.com) (pressenterprise.com) Weekend 1 is not over yet, but the early pattern is clear: at Coachella 2026, the most replayed images are coming from both the stages and the walkways between them.
