Calling Dua Lipa’s style evolution one of the great glow-ups of all time would be an understatement. Ever since the star, who signed her record deal back in 2014, released her acclaimed second album Future Nostalgia with its back-to-back hits (and then was cast as Mermaid Barbie in the Barbie movie), she has been at the top of her game.
In that time Dua has become a regular presence on awards show step-and-repeats, where she never fails to pique our interest in plunging Courrèges chainmail and swirling red Prada numbers. And let’s not forget her many Met Gala moments—she even co-hosted in 2023, dressed as a Chanel bride from the fall 1992 couture collection. Her recent Radical Optimism tour was also a fashion extravaganza, with Balenciaga, Valentino, and Loewe all clamoring to dress her. Beyond this, she is something of a red-carpet style icon, and a regular server of looks on the ’gram (she’s an expert at beachside photoshoots in fresh-off-the-runway pieces and customs, alike).
Whether she’s rocking a litany of bespoke Jacquemus dresses on her birthday beach vacation, captivating the paps in a sleek Celine gown at Cannes, or donning flat Margiela Tabi Mary-Janes for a casual London dinner, Dua’s wardrobe choices have the world’s undivided attention. So, in honor of her 30th birthday, Vogue spotlights 30 of Dua Lipa’s best looks.
