Dua Lipa has served up some incredible swimwear moments. Whether it was the crochet Cannibas leag micro ‘kini by GCDS, the entirely-sequined bandeau one-piece or the denim set she wore for her 27th birthday; the songstress has truly perfected the poolside fit.
But her latest look is a special one. Sporting a bikini from Versace’s ‘La Vacanza’ collection—a collaborative project between herself and Donatella Versace—Lipa makes a strong case for investing in her co-designed swimwear.
The set features a whimsical print of multi-coloured butterflies and ladybirds peppered against a background of black and white polka dots and includes the brand’s trademark Medusa hardware for a touch of luxury. The shape is a classic triangle bikini top and Brazilian brief cut, with tie-up straps on both the top and bottoms.
Though it didn’t feature on the initial runway, the British pop star made sure to sell it with a series of up-close Instagram snaps of her modelling the two-piece in a bathroom.
“My summer uniform until further notice,” she captioned the post. “The cutest @versace polka dots bikini from my #VersaceLaVacanza collection with @donatellaversace.”
Lipa and Versace debuted ‘La Vacanza’ with a special show on the French Riviera in May this year. Spanning 40 looks, the collection featured signature touches from both Lipa and Donatella, including slinky chainmail, butterfly motifs, ultra mini hemlines and sensual cut-outs.
Sharing BTS scenes from their joint project, Donatella can be heard praising the singer, telling her that she is the perfect person to model Versace clothes. “You give it something more,” she says. “You give it an attitude.” Frankly, we couldn’t agree more.
