Dua Lipa - by Scarlett Conlon (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

Dua Lipa and the Clothes She Wears is a celebration of the superstar's biggest fashion moments. Written by fashion journalist Scarlett Conlon, this latest addition to the bestselling series is a must-have for fans and fashionistas. Dua Lipa has enjoyed a sensational rise to the peak of pop stardom. Her infectious disco-influenced hits have scored billions of plays on Spotify - yes, billions! - and her sharp fashion choices have turned heads across the entertainment industry making her an international style icon. Born in London, Dua was tenacious in her pursuit of musical success, kickstarting her career by posting chart-topping covers to YouTube in her late-teens. By her early twenties, she had already won an armful of awards, including BRITs and Grammys. It wasn't long before the fashion industry took note. Now a regular on the covers of American Vogue, Rolling Stone, Elle Magazine, and recently Time Magazine as one of its most influential people of 2024, she has collaborated with Donatella Versace on her own collection and was asked by Anna Wintour to be a co-host of the annual Met Gala in 2023. The same year, her soundtrack to Barbie, her acting debut in the film, and her subsequent red-carpet appearances won her a new legion of new followers around the world while her headlining Glastonbury set in 2024 sealed her place as one of the world's most celebrated hitmakers and style icons. "A true style icon is not just someone who dresses well, but someone who exudes personality, charisma, and authenticity with it," says author Scarlett Conlon. "Dua Lipa is a definitive example of this; she's a self-made superstar whose authentic approach to everything, from her music and philanthropic endeavors, shines - and that is no better reflected than in the clothes she wears. She has been a prolific presence in the music and fashion industry over the last few years, from working with top fashion houses to championing rising stars. Delving into her collaborations, style signatures, and standout looks for this celebration of her style revealed the true extent of her role-model status."
