The Bestival fancy dress theme for 2016 may be ‘Future’, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look back through past years for outfit inspo.

This year’s festival is less than a month away - running from 8-11 September at Robin Hill Country Park on the Isle of Wight - so you better start planning those costumes.

Previous Bestival themes include last year’s ‘Summer of Love’, 2014’s tropical ‘Desert Island Disco’ and a nautical ‘HMS Bestival’ back in 2012.

Check out our 19 favourite-ever outfits from all the weird and wonderful looks ever worn on the campsite (warning: it’s about to get very colourful):
