Coachella is back! Bring out the glitter! Stars and influencers will gather from Friday, April 10 to Sunday, April 12, then again from Friday, April 17 to Sunday, April 19, 2026, under the Californian sun of Coachella to celebrate at the grand prize. Between Sabrina Carpenter’s sets and Justin Bieber’s comeback, here are some basic rules for playing the influencer game on the Indio lawn.
When you’re an influencer (or a digital creator as they like to call themselves nowadays) and you pose in front of the camera, there are rules to follow. You can’t just unleash your friendliest smile like we mere mortals would. You need to find the right attitude, as if it’s not your best friend/assistant taking your photo, but Vogue. Yes, basically, you need to shine.
To celebrate Coachella properly, we’ve gathered the most beautiful poses of influencers, and you’ll see that less natural is better.
Let’s see how it looks in practice.
The flamingo pose
This pose popularized by Kendall Jenner involves balancing on one leg. It requires concentration and balance, but the result is undoubtedly absolutely gorgeous!
The “I touch my hair to appear confident” pose
When you don’t know what to do with your hands, one of the techniques is touching your hair.
The “I touch my hat because I have a hat” pose
Have you noticed? People wearing hats at Coachella feel compelled to touch them to say: “Heeeeyyyyyyy, I’m wearing a hat.” Well, good for them, the sun is strong in California.
The “And my butt? Do you like my butt?” pose
From below… … or from above.
The “Oh! I didn’t realize you were taking a picture of me” pose
What a surprise! I didn’t see you! The lady plays the surprise act very well. Especially considering that this photo had to be redone several times, that’s talent.
The “I’m soaking up the sun on my face with my eyes closed, hmm… how pleasant” pose
Vitamin D is good for the skin, even if we’ve covered our bodies with tinted cream and self-tanner.
The “I’m way too important for all this nonsense” pose
It’s a bit of a model pose, half bored, half sexy. You definitely shouldn’t show how excited you are to be at Coachella. Pfff, I go every year, actually.
Bonus
The duck face
It’s more of a pout than a pose. The duck face never goes out of style. In 2026 at Coachella, we’re still allowed to purse our lips like an anus to look cool. Thank you ladies, you look stunning.
Speaking of festivals…
