Coachella as seen by Hedi Slimane

I’ll admit it. I’m not that into rock festivals. The crowds, the terrible sound, the lack of intimate connection with the music on display. That said the Coachella photographs from the diary of French fashion designer Hedi Slimane make it look pretty awesome, certainly even more stylish and enchanting than the event itself (which I did, in fact, attend earlier this month). His book Rock Diary (which is apparently out-of-print) comes highly recommended. A few more Coachella images from his diary appear after the jump.
