Dua Lipa is not done turning every stop into a fashion moment.
After a major style run in France, the ‘Houdini’ singer returned to London and kept the visual drama going. This time, she stepped out for a Selfridges pop-up celebrating her new skincare line with Augustinus Bader, called Dua by AB.
The event may have been about beauty, but Lipa made sure the clothes got plenty of attention too. Her look mixed butterflies, leopard print, feathers, reptile-style texture, and luxury jewelry into one very busy outfit. Somehow, she made it work.
Dua Lipa Brings Back Archival Fashion
For the London appearance, Lipa wore a butterfly-printed lace qipao dress from Kim Shui’s Spring/Summer 2020 collection.
The dress featured a Mandarin collar and bold blue-and-green butterfly prints. The shape gave the look a soft, flowing feel, while the pattern added a playful edge. It was another archival fashion pull for Lipa, who has been leaning hard into rare and older designer pieces lately.
During her recent time in France, she wore several standout looks, including Ferragamo pieces, a Jean Paul Gaultier dress, Chloé separates, and a golden Roberto Cavalli swimwear look.
The Bag Made The Look Even Wilder
Lipa did not stop with the butterfly dress.
She paired it with a white leopard-print Jacquemus bag from the Fall/Winter 2026 ‘Le Palmier’ collection. The bag came with feather details, making it the loudest part of an already packed outfit.
Then came the boots. Lipa added lace-up olive-green Dior boots from the Fall 2000 line, finished in croc-style leather.
The animal references stacked up fast: butterflies on the dress, leopard print on the bag, feathers for texture, and reptile-inspired boots. It could have looked messy. On Lipa, it felt intentional.
Bulgari Finished The Outfit
Lipa completed the look with Bulgari jewelry, including Serpenti drop earrings, rose-gold bracelets, and matching rings.
The jewelry added polish without calming the outfit down too much. It still had that offbeat, fashion-girl energy Lipa clearly wanted for the pop-up.
The timing also made sense. Dua by AB is her new skincare collaboration with Augustinus Bader, so the appearance needed a look that would photograph well and stand apart from a standard product launch outfit. Lipa delivered exactly that.
Her Cannes run may be over, but her style streak clearly is not. The butterfly dress and feathered leopard bag proved she can leave the film festival and still keep the fashion crowd watching.
