Dua Lipa Flaunts Her Own Versace Collection in Slinky Crystal Mesh Gown at ‘Barbie’ Premiere

The singer repped a garden-inspired look for the film’s second premiere in London

Dua Lipa is bringing her own Versace flair to the Barbie party.

After making a head-turning appearance in Bottega Veneta at the film’s world premiere in Los Angeles on Sunday night, the Future Nostalgia musician headed to her next press stop wearing a designer she knows well.

For the Barbie London screening on Wednesday, the 27-year-old, styled by Lorenzo Posocco, opted to wear a slinky chainmail slip gown pulled right from La Vacanza collection she co-designed with Versace, which debuted on the runway in May.


The body-hugging one-piece features a tropical neon butterfly and floral print, a sexy scalloped V-neckline and gold metal chain straps. She also wore silver stilettos speckled with butterfly appliqués.


Her disco-inspired ensemble was teamed with chunky accessories that gave a garden vibe. Small ladybug charms, bejeweled butterfly brooches and various-sized circular pendants stamped with Versace’s Medusa logo made up her gold necklace, rings and large stud earrings.

“Our goal was to bring the ultimate pop of Barbie pink to her look,” Lipa’s manicurist Kim Truong wrote in an Instagram post detailing how she got the neon look using OPI’s Hi, Barbie!.

Every Last Piece of Dua Lipa’s ‘Barbie’ Premiere Look Was Inspired by Her Mermaid Character — Even Her Manicure!
While Lipa and Posocco opted for a Y2K version of a garden goddess for Wednesday’s screening, the two wanted to direct her Los Angeles ensemble to her Mermaid Barbie character from the film.

Her glitzy dress was made of see-through fabric that showed off her chest and white bikini bottoms underneath.

“It’s very sparkly and fun,” she told Vogue. “I just thought it would match my mermaid character in Barbie, so I just went with that.

If you weren’t familiar with the Lipa’s collection with Versace, a scroll through the “Levitating” singer’s Instagram would at least give you an idea of the swimsuit and slip dress-heavy line — as well as the singer’s fondness for butterflies, polka dots and rhinestones.

Celebrities including Selena Gomez and Rachel Brosnahan have worn spotted pieces from the line as well.
