Isle of Wight Festival

LONDON--Over the weekend, 55,000 people flocked to England's Isle of Wight for its annual 3-day music festival. Storms on Thursday night meant that the mud seemed knee-high by the time the festival kicked off, but it couldn't stop Florence and the Machine, Vampire Weekend, Paloma Faith and Jay-Z from mesmerizing the crowds all weekend long. Attendees kept festival fashions distinctly British, with acres of denim, over-sized floral prints, white-gray hair, vintage pieces, headbands, and obligatory Hunter boots. As for the mud? The better to make your wellies look more authentic, my dear.... Click through for images of--and interviews with--some of our favorite (civilian) concert-goers.
