How Slayyyter Made Her Own Coachella Debut Performance Outfit

Weekend one of many 2026 Coachella music pageant had no scarcity of pop stars—maximalist showgirl pop maven Sabrina Carpenter kicked issues off, and after 4 years away, Justin Bieber made a nostalgia-hitting headline efficiency. But it was the subversive and boundary-breaking pop women who actually outlined the weekend: specifically, PinkPantheress, Addison Rae, and Slayyyter.

For rising pop star Slayyyter, her Friday night time set was notably particular. It marked her first time taking part in the occasion in Indio, California. “It feels like such a dream come true,” says Slayyyter, who launched her bangers-filled album Worst Girl in America simply final month. “I have always wanted to attend Coachella—let alone play it—since I would see photos on Tumblr when I was in high school. It feels very surreal.”

The singer had the group roaring together with her club-shaking hits like “Beat Up Chanels,” “Dance,” and “Crank.” These still-new tunes are fertile for Slayyyter, with the pageant a testing floor for her bangers. “Coachella was the debut of performing all of these songs. Everything felt incredible in a live setting,” says Slayyyter. “I was surprised how many people knew the words to the non-single songs on the album. The crowd response to ‘Crank’ was maybe my favorite moment of the whole set, though. Everyone was just screaming: It felt like the room was shaking!”

What made Slayyyter’s Coachella debut much more private was the truth that she handmade her personal efficiency outfit within the week main as much as the present. “I like being very hands on with my costume design—every time I make my own outfit, it just feels comfortable,” says Slayyyter. “I know what silhouettes and proportions I like on myself.”

For her present, the Missouri-born star wished to land on a glance that felt quintessentially her—horny, with a touch Y2K, and a way of considerably refined messiness. (That would possibly appear to be a paradox, however belief her—and us!—it is not.) She crafted a ruffled chiffon prime with lace detailing, and paired it with denim cut-offs and western equipment, in addition to a “Worst Girl at Coachella” studded and bedazzled trucker hat. “It feels really fun for me to sit down and take time to create something,” says Slayyyter. “This one didn’t take me too long—I honestly started it a couple days before.”
