We may have just entered the ’20s, but it seems fashion is still largely stuck in the ’90s. After making a huge resurgence last year, the decade is set to inform much of spring/summer 2020’s style agenda, with trends like chain necklaces. Bermuda shorts and clean nineties lines all proving prevalent on the runways.
The appeal spreads far and wide—from fashion editorial to Instagram—but if there’s one person who’s a poster girl for the movement, it’s without a doubt Dua Lipa.
In addition to her award-winning music, the songstress has long been impressing us with her sartorial wild streak, too. From mesh and thigh-skimming sequins to elegant ballgowns and sharp suiting—much like Sarah Jessica Parker or Alexa Chung, it seems there’s no trend Dua Lipa can’t turn her hand to.
While many of her archival outfits err on the ‘80s side of things, her latest ensembles are each in their own a tribute to the ’90s. From bucket hats and puffer jackets to bright eyeshadow and hair tendrils, Dua looks are becoming just as iconic as the ones that actually inspired them.
So, in no particular order, keep scrolling to look at Dua Lipa’s throwback style hits. A word of caution, though: You may have an uncontrollable urge to don ripped tights once you’re finished.
Style Notes: Of course, Dua takes the classic tweed two-pieces and makes it feel ultra-modern, wearing it sans top and with ’90s hair tendrils.
Style Notes: Dua’s monogrammed Louis Vuitton boots have gone straight to the top of our wish lists.
Style Notes: Dua knows the easiest outfit to pull together (bar a dress) is a matching co-ord. Once again, she takes the ’90s approach with ruche detailing.
Style Notes: Note to self: leave your shirt unbuttoned towards the bottom for a cool take. Padded gilet optional but highly recommended.
Style Notes: We don’t know what we love more—Dua’s mini buns or her throwback Chanel crop top.
Style Notes: Now this is what we call a party dress. To see in the roaring ’20s, Dua knew sparkle was the only way to do it.
Style Notes: This pink puffer jacket and a leopard print bucket hat combination is party Baby Spice, part Sporty Spice, and a whole lot of Dua.
