Fashion-forward locals were out en masse at this past weekend's Vegas StrEATS food and arts festival in downtown. Students, artists, business owners and others came to scope out the event and sample treats that were as sweet, spicy and creative as the outfits they sported.

Bright dyed 'dos and fringe purses were a popular look among the ladies, while the fellas favored bold facial hair and thick-framed glasses. Leather jackets and scarves reigned supreme among all on the crisp Saturday night.

From vintage to hip-hop to rockabilly and beyond, here's a look at local street style seen at Vegas StrEATS.
