Mistake: Her Best Fashion And Dua Lipa’s Memorable Red Carpet Incidents

Dua Lipa Style Evolution: Her Best Fashion And Red Carpet Looks

It often feels like Albanian music star Dua Lipa appeared out of thin air, suddenly dominating our airwaves with pop hit after pop hit. But the singer has actually been a red carpet mainstay since the mid-2010s, and therefore when it comes to reflecting on her personal style, we’ve actually got a lot to work with.

When she began her career it was primarily in Europe, not Hollywood – but even at the outset, Dua Lipa was a fan of daring, attention-grabbing fashion, whether it was colour-clashing on the red carpet or mixing preppy and punk on the streets of Paris.

Now, we’re addicted to Dua Lipa’s fashion sense, but really – her style evolution has simply been about us all finally realising she had that sartorial ‘it’ factor.

For BBC Radio 1’s Teen Awards way back in 2016, Dua Lipa showed a glimpse of her knack for effortless red carpet style in an Alessandra Rich chinoiserie gown and pink heels.

Look, it’s definitely dated but be honest – we all wanted this Giambatista Valli Couture gown back in 2017.

Attending an event in Germany, Lipa went more low key in an oversized pinstripe suit with her favourite top choice of the late 2010s – an embellished bralette.

Finally making her way to the American music award circuit, the artist wore Giambattista Valli, a mermaid-style gown that felt equal parts Old Hollywood and edgy.

Out in New York with then-boyfriend Anwar Hadid, Dua Lipa gave us a glimpse of her off-duty style, which often leans toward streetwear but with a twist – like this look, where the artist paired Adidas trackpants with a yellow bodysuit and Vivienne Westwood bag.

The return of bike shorts was a blessing for all casual girlies everywhere, and Dua Lipa was definitely on board in 2020 with this Versace pair.

Athleisure, but make it 1960s – that’s exactly what the ‘New Rules’ singer did with this Richard Quinn x Moncler look, which featured shoes, tights and the famous puffer jacket from the designer collaboration.

At the 2021 BRIT Awards, the star brought back the bouffant while wearing Vivienne Westwood. It was all very Amy Winehouse in the best way.

2023 is proving to be Dua Lipa’s best fashion year yet, and this Saint Laurent look for the fashion house’s Fall/Winter Womenswear show was front row perfection. That floor skimming trench? It’s giving chic Matrix.
