On the opening day of Lollapalooza, no one—not even the festival organizers—could quite figure out if it was going to storm. That meant there were some ponchos and bikini tops mixed in with the baseball caps, blue lipstick and sheer shirts. (The rain optimists were vindicated, too: It ultimately drizzled a bit, but nothing crazy.)

Chicagoist photographer Annie Lesser captured some of the best outfits, worn by Hannibal Buress (!), Dreezy and assorted Lolla acts, as well as the stylish civilians who crop up at every Chicago festival (making us question our Old Navy basics and general life choices). See a boatload of aspirational fashion above, and remember—this is only the beginning of a Lolla style marathon.
