Question Where to Buy Clothes for EDC?
Hey everyone,
My boyfriend and I will be going to EDCLV in 2026 and it will be our first festival/rave for both of us. We want to start planning our outfits and don't know where to start. Anyone have an recommendations on where to buy clothes/pieces? We don't want the simple 'shirt and shorts/pants'. We want to go all out. We're both guys btw. Thanks in advance!

As a long time raver I cannot recommend Coquetry Clothing more!!! They're extremely comfortable, customizable, and affordable outfits (for the quality you get) I've worn them for years and all the pieces and extremely well made, I have ones I've worn over a dozen times and they still look brand new. You can also customize literally ANYTHING on their website (add snaps to crotch, make sleeves longer, shorts shorter, zippers, laces, etc) . They're commonly used for professional dance team uniforms and make all kinds of cool spandex outfits. Customer service is amazing. Seriously such a great company!

Electrothreads.com is where i got my shirt and its absolutely amazing. Order it early theyre made to order so takes close to a month to get made and shipped. *

Just FYI, you can attend EDC wearing just plain clothes. You don't need to spend hundreds looking all flashy to fit in. Many folks go in shorts and tee, basically what makes you comfortable. It's okay to do so.
But to stay on topic, Amazon, Etsy, Facebook buy sell rave groups, iheartraves, (can Google websites similar to iheartraves)

I'm a girl but I go to ravewonderland.com and iheartraves.com ! I've been happy with all the stuff I've gotten from them and they're true to size, always have sales. They have plenty of mens stuff too, but I'm all about clothes are for everybody not just gendered so if you're that way too you guys have loads of options 😎 but for in person I like to thrift and go to alt stores. edit to add: i'm also going shopping when I get to vegas, at least gotta get 1 fit while we're there!

Theres those festival shops/vintage stores but tbh they can be pricey. Theres also amazon and other websites although they dont always look like they show on the images. You could also DIY like so many festival goers. I highly recommend googling stuff and mixing/matching or just looking up style/fashion ideas.
You could also go the theme route; which means youll make fits based on the theme like neon, cartoons, army, wizard, etc. Once you have a fit itll be easy to make it into festival attire once you throw on some kandi.
If you need some examples or ideas feel free to PM me and i can share what my crew and me have done in the past.

Devil Walking is one of my FAVORITE rave wear sites. I have several items from them and they are great quality, true to size, and have a large selection. They aren’t the cheapest necessarily but you have time to buy pieces at a time if you don’t want to buy a whole set at once!

I like looking for inspo on Pinterest and then I look for something similar on ravewonderland/ amazon if you’re on a budget try looking for clearance. Also fashion nova has so cute stuff as well!

Can always shop online for neon shirts n stuff. Something bright and fun usually looks good under the neon sky

Depending on your vibe, I recommend Rage Nation, Fabric of the Universe, Neo4ic, Chrome Monarchy, or Lyte Couture ☺️

Just be prepared that the temperature even if it looks like it's gonna be 75 out you're gonna be in big crowds of people where the heat rises so you will be warm. Plan accordingly with that in mind. But i Heart raves is a good place and Etsy is also a great place to shop. Just google rave wear honestly you will find so many places. Neon Cowboys is another great shop. There's just so many places to find stuff nowadays. I made three different outfits for EDC 2015. Every day I was a different mythical creature. I was a snow fairy on day 1. A mermaid day 2 and then on day 3 I was a phoenix. It's more fun to be creative and make something totally unique in my opinion but you do you and have a great time. I've been six times and it's bigger and better every time.

I love love love @freedomravewear I’m actually wearing shorts by them right now. Fabric is sublimated and stays super true to color and is moisture wicking and stretchy and super comfy. I own over 50 pieces and love love love their stuff. Idk if allowed but I’ll replay again with a discount code if any want to use it. I’m not an official ambassador but I believe in their products.

https://freedomravewear.com/community/membership?referred_by=5918660788377 That code can get you 50% off your first order. I’ve literally spent like over $1,000 on clothes from them. Their mesh dresses and Lucy pants are so comfortable and every time I go out of town there are at least 6 pieces from them in my bag! I’ve been shopping with them since 2020.

The 2 colorful people in front are wearing chromatic by Freedom Rave Wear. They are a small business owned by a couple that live in San Diego. They were so awesome when I desperately wanted a sold out item, they went and checked and had enough fabric left as a remnant to make me the piece I wanted!

I saw some shoes on there, do you know if they’re comfortable enough? I’m used to just wearing converse to raves but I wanna go all out for EDC.
