The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week: Coachella Edition

Our online fashion favorites from 4/8 - 4/13
The Best Dressed Black Creatives On Instagram This Week: Coachella Edition
@sydneyseethal
By Mecca Pryor · Updated April 14, 2025

This week, fashion took to the desert as many of our favorite celebrities, influencers, and creatives made their way south of LA to Palm Springs for one of the most anticipated events of the year—Coachella. This year’s headliners included Megan Thee Stallion, Missy Elliott, Tyla, and more! Scroll ahead to check out some of our favorite looks from the weekend.

Mini shorts—or hot pants, if you prefer—have undeniably taken over this year’s fashion scene. And what better place to sport the trend than in the heat of the desert? Many creatives leaned into the look, using mini shorts as the foundation of their outfits—an ideal choice for staying cool under the scorching sun. London-based creator Lola Thompson made the trip across the pond, turning heads with a standout vintage Louis Vuitton Speedy, perfectly paired with cargo mini shorts and a cropped fur jacket.

On the more masculine side, vests and coordinated sets have taken center stage, especially in standout materials like denim and leather. Whether channeling a rugged biker vibe or leaning into a modern country aesthetic, the looks have been anything but boring. For authentic inspiration, look no further than creators like Ziggy Mack Johnson and Taj Hughes, who effortlessly embody both styles.

Let’s be honest; Instagram can be the best place to find your next outfit. There is nothing wrong with grabbing a little inspiration from the Internet, and these creatives brought the best style this week.
