Dua Lipa [1] never misses a beat with her fun, colourful, throwback outfits. The Future Nostalgia [2] singer has fully committed to the Y2K fashion aesthetic [3] with help from her exceptional stylist Lorenzo Posocco [4]. If you've ever wanted to know how to copy her best Y2K fashion moments, we have a few tips that will make it a piece of cake.
Dua's take on Y2K style means a lot of pink and butterfly details [5]. Some of her best summer looks include a baby tee or cropped top [6] with a pair of animal-print jeans. She loves matching the colours in her outfit with her accessories — especially her shoes, baguette bags, tinted sunglasses, thin belts, and chunky rings. On the topic of rings, a Dua look is incomplete without them. Like fellow stylish star Sophie Turner, Dua loves stacking candy-coloured enamel rings [7] to add a fun, playful element to many of her outfits.
Fancy dressing like Dua this summer? Keep reading for seven styling tips to achieve her early-2000s aesthetic.
Contrast a Pretty Pink Look With Animal Print
Dua matched her dramatic-sleeve pink cropped top with her sweet blushed cheeks, baby-pink baguette bag, pink tinted sunglasses, and pink belt. To break up the cuteness, Dua styled the look with snake-printed jeans.
Bring Back Classic Y2K Brands
Dua (and stylist Lorenzo Posocco) are known for punchy, colourful looks. And we love this Y2K-inspired outfit with a colourful Missoni bikini and oversize Ed Hardy shirt.
Match Your Top to Your Accessories
Dua's outfits often match her top to her accessories. For this look, she went for a bright-purple crop top and gorgeous matching mules from The Attico. As expected, her trousers came with a bit of edge in the form of a classic tiger print.
Create Your Own Version of Tennis Whites
Pink is certainly Dua's colour for summer 2021. Instead of going for classic tennis whites, she made the trend all her own with a Y2K update of a baby-pink coordinated set that featured an essential diamanté butterfly detail.
Pair an Oversize Blazer With a Sexy Dress
Dua is an early adopter of London brand Poster Girl [8]. And while the pop star looks exceptional in the brand's sexy, signature dresses, she added a relaxed and sophisticated vibe to the outfit with a smart, oversize blazer.
Embrace Texture For an Unforgettable Outfit
Dua's Casablanca coordinated set was such a statement because of the dreamy sunset print, but the quilted texture took it to a whole new level.
Never Leave Home Without Your Most Colourful Accessories
Dua's favourite summer accessories are without a doubt her collection of colourful enamel rings that look like they just popped out of a vintage gumball machine.
