The best fashion from the Glastonbury legends slot


Moonshadow singer Yusuf/Cat Stevens will appear in the Sunday tea time legends slot at this year’s Glastonbury Festival -following in the star-studded footsteps of Diana Ross, Dolly Parton and Neil Diamond.
The legends slot is always a highlight of the iconic festival, with classic stars playing old school tunes – and of course wearing suitably extravagant outfits. Here’s a look at some of the best…


Last year, Stop! In The Name Of Love singer Diana Ross treated the crowd to a disco-fabulous onstage look.


Ross later removed the headpiece and coat to reveal the silver caftan-style gown underneath, paired with statement chandelier earrings.




Minogue wowed the crowds with multiple costume changes – not something you normally see in the mud of Worthy Farm.




And another costume change featured a sharply tailored white suit, teamed with a gold shirt and shoes.


Jolene singer Dolly Parton was never going to play it safe for her performance at Glastonbury in 2014.
Her outfit was classic country glam: a white shirt and trousers studded with a ludicrous amount of rhinestones – matched by jewels in her voluminous hairdo.


Parton isn’t the only legend partial to a few rhinestones: Welsh songstress Dame Shirley Bassey wore a bedazzled pink dress with a feathered train to perform in 2007.
The outfit was by Welsh designer Julien Macdonald, and to traverse through the mud, Bassey donned a pair of bejewelled Wellington boots with her initials ‘DSB’ on the side.
The outfit is so iconic, it’s set to go on display in the V&A’s latest blockbuster exhibition celebrating divas, opening on June 24.


James Brown didn’t wear any rhinestones to perform at Glastonbury in 2004, but he did don a whole lot of tassles.
His fire engine red suit was accessorised with strings of fringing, a black bow tie and statement shoulders.
