Harry Styles is back and so is my will to live.
Harry Styles has tasked us with kissing all of the time and discoing occasionally. Thus we’re bringing back boas, sparkles, metallics, jumpsuits, halters, and the list goes on.
If you know me, you know I am a huge Harry Styles fan. This has been a long-term commitment, documented by group chats, playlists, and some truly questionable fashion choices of my own.
So when he announced his return to the stage, leaning into a disco-forward era, it felt obvious what comes next. Not just new music, but a moment.
Because when Harry moves, culture follows.
We’re about to enter a big Discocore era.
Disco first exploded in the late 1970s. Studio 54, bell bottoms, glitter, excess, and fashion that existed purely for joy. Loud, expressive, unapologetic.
Harry has always pulled from that lineage. Gender-fluid silhouettes. Sequins. Vintage references. Clothing that feels playful instead of restrictive. So it’s not a stretch to say this next tour could kick off a Discocore revival that feels massive, especially in how fans show up.
Concerts won’t just be concerts. They’ll be fashion events. Sequins will feel required. Feather boas will resurface. Cowboy hats will somehow still be involved. People will plan outfits weeks, or if you’re like me, months in advance.
And honestly, that part is fun.
But with a revival in a trend comes the resurgence of it EVERYWHERE. Fast fashion brands are going to be jumping on these trends and microtrends and overproducing so many disco related things that we are going to become sick of it before it even starts.
Which brings us to the part we actually need to talk about.
The Together, Together 2026 World Tour: Dates and Details
As Harry prepares for his 2026 Together, Together tour, fans are buzzing with excitement about what’s to come. So far, Harry has announced 67 tour dates in major cities across the globe, including residencies in New York, London, and Amsterdam. These cities will see him perform multiple nights, with 30 shows scheduled in New York, 12 in London, and 10 in Amsterdam. This is Harry’s third solo tour, following his 2017 and 2021 tours, and it’s already shaping up to be one of the biggest and most impactful yet.
Concerts in iconic venues like Wembley Stadium will mark a record-breaking milestone, as Harry is set to become the artist with the most performances there in a single year, surpassing both Coldplay and Taylor Swift. With a setlist full of disco-inspired glam and an energetic, immersive experience, this tour promises to be an unforgettable chapter in his career.
Concert and Festival Fashion Has a Single-Use Problem
We’ve seen this play out before.
Harry’s last tour inspired fans to dress boldly. Bell bottoms, glitter, platform shoes, sheer shirts. Not uniform costumes, but outfits inspired by his energy.
Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour took it even further. Each album became a visual cue. Fans dressed for a specific era, sometimes buying outfits solely for one night, or recreating some of her own concert outfits.
Music festivals have followed the same pattern for years. Think Coachella, Lollapalooza, Bonnaroo. Entire outfits built for photos, not longevity.
And fast fashion brands know this.
Who’s Cashing In on Concert Culture
Brands like SHEIN are already masters at turning moments into merchandise. Search “concert outfit,” “festival disco,” or “sequin top” and you’ll find endless ultra-cheap pieces clearly designed for one night only.
But it’s not just SHEIN.
Amazon has quietly become a huge player in last-minute concert and festival fashion. Search results are filled with sparkly bodysuits, fringe sets, metallic pants, and feather accessories that arrive overnight and disappear just as fast.
PrettyLittleThing, Boohoo, Fashion Nova, and similar brands routinely roll out “festival” or “party” collections that lean heavily into glitter, cutouts, and trend-driven silhouettes. These collections are built for immediacy, not repeat wear.
This isn’t about villainizing anyone. These brands exist because people want accessible, affordable ways to participate in the moment.
The issue isn’t disco.
It’s disposability.
The Good News: You Can Do This Without Wasting
Here’s the part that actually matters.
You can fully participate in the disco moment without creating a closet full of one-night outfits.
You don’t need a perfect solution. You just need a plan.
How to Do Concert and Festival Fashion Sustainably
Thrift and vintage first
Disco fashion already exists in the world. Sequins, wide-leg pants, bold shirts, statement accessories. Thrift stores, vintage shops, and resale platforms are full of pieces that were literally made for this aesthetic.
Rent statement pieces
If you want something bold without the long-term commitment, renting makes sense. One big disco moment, no permanent closet clutter.
Borrow and swap
Concert outfits are ideal for borrowing. A friend’s sequin top, a feather boa, a pair of platform boots. Closet swaps before concerts are wildly underrated and way more fun than panic-shopping online.
Upcycle what you already own
Bedazzle a jacket. Add fringe. Paint denim. Cut, tie, layer. Harry Styles energy has never been about perfection. It’s about creativity.
Choose pieces you’ll wear again
A sparkly top doesn’t have to live only at a concert. Think about future you. Parties. Nights out. Costume moments. Multiple wears matter more than labels.
Plan ahead
Last-minute shopping is where waste happens. Giving yourself time opens up better options, thrifting, borrowing, altering, reusing.
Disco Energy Without the Disposable Hangover
Harry Styles has always shown that fashion can be expressive, playful, and personal without following rules. That same mindset applies here.
You can celebrate disco.
You can go all in.
You can sparkle and feel joyful and free.
You just don’t have to do it in a way that treats clothes as disposable.
Sustainability doesn’t mean killing the vibe.
It means letting the joy last longer than one night.
And honestly, saying “this was thrifted” might be the most Harry Styles thing you can say.
Does Harry Advocate for Sustainable Fashion?
Yes, Harry Styles has shown support for sustainable fashion through his actions. While he hasn’t made formal public statements specifically labeling himself an advocate for sustainable fashion, his choices reflect a commitment to ethical sourcing and environmentally friendly practices. For example, he has worn designs from eco-conscious brands like Stella McCartney, known for her dedication to sustainability in fashion. Additionally, Harry’s style often champions individual expression and creativity, rather than following fleeting trends, which indirectly promotes a move away from the fast fashion cycle. His use of vintage pieces, custom-made outfits, and upcycled items all align with the idea of reducing waste and embracing longer-lasting, unique fashion choices. His public image continues to reflect a balance between personal style and a thoughtful approach to fashion that is more mindful of the environment.
