Dua Lipa celebrated her 30th birthday in the most Dua Lipa way possible. Landing into Ibiza—her confirmed favorite island—with a pack of friends, the pop star dined in the celebrity fave beachside spot Jondal and danced the night away at DC10 nightclub.
The look? An elevated take on White Island dressing, and totally Dua: a custom Jacquemus dress made of white sequins with extreme, side-caressing cut-outs. High neck at the front, the dress splits backless, with matching white sequin underwear exposed by the deep hip cut-outs. She wore several silver star earrings across her lobes, a stack of silver bracelets, and gold and silver cocktail rings alongside her solitaire diamond, chunky engagement ring.
Lipa posted a series of snaps from her early birthday celebrations (her birthday is August 22) to Instagram, fooling around with her fiancé Callum Turner and posing with friends including Mustafa the Poet and GCDS creative director Giuliano Calza, as well as her sister Rina and mother Anesa. Plates of dressed oysters and devoured langoustines from the celebratory meal were also peppered throughout the IG carousel, and Lipa served up her own early birthday cake: a chunky chocolate and pistachio cake topped with cherries, raspberries, and summer berries.
Turner turned his own hand at summer style, in an easy breezy blue and white stripe shirt, loose linen trousers, and sheer, square brown sunglasses. (He looks like he’s managed to get over that awful sunburn too!). The couple confirmed their engagement with Dua Lipa’s British Vogue cover story back in June.
Nobody does permanent la vacanza lifestyle better than Dua Lipa, who spent the brief downtime during her Radical Optimism tour enjoying each international stop’s restaurants and beach scenes, then bopping around the South of France, and heading to Albania to headline and party down at her own Sunny Hill Festival. Her vacation wardrobe brims with naked dresses and ruffled blouses, with a suite of itty-bitty, neon and polka-dot bikinis, stand-out gowns like a almost bridal-like white ruched Jacquemus dress, and summer sequins.
Of course, a birthday vacation involving all of Lipa’s close friends in her favorite place called for something special, and it had to be Lipa’s close friend Simon Porte Jacquemus to make it happen—a vision in summery sequins, bridal-ish whites, and curvaceous cut-outs. From Ibiza to Kosovo and Positano, Deià to Palermo—it’s Dua Lipa season.
