The 9 Best Stage Style Moments At Governors Ball

This past weekend New York City was the place to be thanks per usual…but also because of the annual Governors Ball!

ESSENCE was there to experience the magic that has come to be associated with Gov Ball. The musical lineup included Pusha T (still in the middle of his alleged Drake beef), Lil Uzi Vert, Eminem, Halsey, 2 Chainz, Travis Scott and more.

Festivalgoers showed up by the thousands — and one of our favorite pastimes is to soak up the fash-uns, not just the music! Of course there’s always the street style to enjoy but we can’t forget about the artist’s who also gave us a fashion moment.

Here’s some of our fave performance ensembles!
