Tyla shines at Coachella with her own style, despite comparisons to Britney Spears

Tyla at Coachella with a unique Y2K look, debunking comparisons to Britney Spears and reaffirming her authenticity.

During her performance at Coachella, Tyla grabbed attention not only for her music but also for her striking outfit: a green floral-print bralette top and unbuttoned denim shorts with fringes. Her outfit was quickly compared to Britney Spears‘ iconic look at the 2001 MTV VMAs. However, Tyla made it clear that there was no direct inspiration from the pop princess.

“I love Britney, but I just thought the outfit was amazing… it wasn’t inspiration,” the singer wrote on social media, denying the rumours. The comparisons soon sparked criticism, to which Tyla confidently responded, defending her authenticity and style.

Although there are aesthetic similarities between both outfits, Tyla has repeatedly shown her affinity for 2000s fashion. Her usual style includes pieces like tiny tops, animal prints, and lace details, all hallmarks of that era.

Beyond the comparisons, Tyla is establishing herself as an emerging icon who takes elements from the past and reinterprets them in her own way. Her performance at Coachella was not only a standout musical moment but also a statement of her stylistic identity.
