Dua Lipa was one of the few artists to drop their albums during the lockdown. She said she thought for a moment about pushing back the release, but decided to just go through with it. She did promotion for it almost entirely from her place in London, with her boyfriend Anwar Hadid in tow. She seemed happy about how things turned out, and the album is pretty successful. It’s no secret that I like Dua a lot – I sometimes feel like I’m the only Dua stan around here? I love her – I think she’s incredibly cool, pretty and talented.
Anyway, Dua is in New York now and she stepped out yesterday in Soho, probably for some promotion or something like that. She spent much of the past year with entirely blonde hair or half-blonde hair and it looked AWFUL, but look, now she’s back to being a brunette. Thank God! She’s so much prettier with dark hair.
I love her outfit in these photos too, although I’m seeing some commentary online about how ‘90s she looks. Maybe that’s why I like it, LOL. The trousers are great, but I would leave behind the belt/chunky metal detail at the waist. The white bodysuit looks cool and I love the black mask. She looks like a chic ‘90s badass.

The return of the all-dark hair is the best part!! She looks great and I’m glad both Anwar and her are wearing their masks.
You are not the only stan around here. I adore this young woman. Future Nostalgia is a fantastic album!
She really earned all my adoration when she called out the President of the RIAA when she won Best New Artist:

And good for her for modelling safe behavior during this pandemic… unlike some others in the public sphere…..
I would have liked the look better with a flat or casual shoe.
This outfit is giving me Kylie Minogue vibes in her “cant get you out of my head” era. Love it!
This outfit reminds of something I’d see on a mannequin at Guess in the Mall when I was in 8th grade. I’m getting strong late 90s/early 2000 vibes. I appreciate the nostalgia of it but I’m not crazy about the outfit at all.
I love Dua too, btw! I think she is putting out some of the best pop music I’ve heard in years. She’s also fun and cute and mad talented. She’s awesome!
Ahhh absolutely LOVE her! You’re not alone in your stanhood! Her fashion is what made me check her out in the first place actually. I stayed cause I love her music.
I don’t like the body suit at all, but the pants and hair color are great.
I’m always amazed at people walking around NYC in long sleeves in the summer, the Northeast is hot and swampy right now!
I liked it better before I could see the high cut bodysuit with the low rise pants. Expensive trashy is still trashy.
Remember how sometimes people would come out of the bathroom with the tail of the bodysuit unsnapped and hanging over the waist in back? We used to call that a “whale tail” even tho the shape was all wrong.
Can we please stop calling anyone who shows some skin trashy? It’s such a slut shaming word. I’m done with trashy, slutty, wh0re/ish, etc. You weren’t introduced to nowhere the sun don’t shine. You’re fine, so is every priest, widower, and child.
+1 on the body/slut-shaming.
I love the bodysuit and the whole outfit. Kinda sexy, and she looks amazing.
Great singer, and the 90s style is a plus for me. Absolutely loved her collaboration with St. Vincent last year.
It’s cute but wearing body suits and jumpsuits that require just taking it all off just to pee is just not interesting for me. But hey, she doesn’t need to be practical for a pap shot. And after teleworking for 4 months, those heels just look painful to me now.
Love this look! Love the heels and the belt and the bodysuit. And her album is incredible.
Definitly 90s but don’t like it, it looks cheap to me, maybe it’s the material. Not really a fan of hers either.
Her latest album is an absolute bop! Highly recommend it for summer listening!
I love her and love the outfit as it sort of sexy without being too overt, and her voice is awesome!! I definitely have a girl crush on her.
Ugh just looking at that body suit makes me feel itchy and uncomfortable. Maybe it’s my body shape, but I could never be comfortable in one of those.
Love the natural hair, so meh on the look.
She’s super talented. I would love this without the weird shoulder piece. The white corset body suits reminds me of Madge a bit, which isn’t a bad thing.
I’m also crying because wide leg is making a comeback and I can’t do this pant leg change again.
I’m a big Dua fan, originating from coverage here on CB. What I like most about her is that I know nothing about her except her music. And she’s british. And she writes her own music and is very in control of her music. So an actual a artist, not a “song shopper”. Ie artists who outbid other artists for demo tracks that are bound to be hits.
And she looks good in a mask. Hope she inspires people to put one on.
SHe should be wearing a mask in the elevator, but yes she looks cute.
I agree, the outfit looks like Guess or Express. It definitely has that mall store look. She looks great though and I absolutely love her music.
