10 Burning Man Outfits Perfect For La Playa

Every year a temporary city is erected in the Black Rock Desert of Nevada. For one week, Black Rock City stands in the desert as an experiment in community cooperation and artistic expression. Community participation is the key to the success of Burning Man. Everyone contributes unique artistic talents for the enjoyment and fulfillment of others around them. In this way, Burning Man is a community-driven and community-centric event. 

Many festival-goers around the country applaud Black Rock City as an entity, and the artistic expression and abundance of creativity that is fostered by the Burning Man community. From sexy rave wear to detailed leather belts to steampunk goggles, Burning Man brings out an eccentric side to festival fashion.

iEDM's Burning Man Collection is filled with your must-have tops, bottoms and everything in-between that will make you a roving art piece unto yourself. Below are the top ten picks for a Burning Man wardrobe. 

1. American Rave Flag Tank Top

Black Rock Desert is hot and when you're spending all your time outdoors with other Burners, creating and appreciating art, you want to make sure that you dress cool.

With a simple monochromatic rave scene displayed through the ubiquitous stars and bars of Old Faithful, this tank top is both creative and practical, allowing you to look and stay cool all Burning Man long. 

2. Hippie Trip Hydration Backpack

Hydration is important no matter where you are, but especially at Burning Man, it is essential to stay hydrated.
