Dua Lipa brought her signature fashion-forward style to the 2026 London Literature Festival. The singer stepped out for the Service95 Book Club event, where she was joined by renowned musician and author Patti Smith. For the occasion, Lipa turned to Schiaparelli for a look that balanced dramatic details with smooth tailoring.
Dua Lipa’s Schiaparelli top combines sheer black mesh with intricate embellishment embellishments
The centerpiece of Dua Lipa’s outfit was a sheer top from Schiaparelli’s Spring/Summer 2027 collection. Made from translucent black mesh, the long-sleeved design revealed plenty of skin beneath its delicate fabric, while the intricate embellishments on the front created a completely different effect.
The top featured an assortment of embellished embellishments that turned the sheer material into a statement piece. Metal details, colorful stones, and jewel-like motifs covered everything from its high neckline to the waist and the extended top with sleeves. The embellishments gave the transparent piece a textured, almost jewel-like finish.
A thin line of detail running vertically through the center added further structure to the otherwise delicate top. At the waist, a sculptural gold embellishment provided a bold finishing touch that created a sharp change in Lipa’s trousers.
The Schiaparelli look was styled with loose black wide-leg pants, leaving the elaborate top as the main attraction. The relaxed trousers also offer a striking contrast with the body-hugging sheer pieces. Lipa completed her ensemble with black Schiaparelli pumps from the Fall/Winter 2026 collection, as noted celeb style radar On Instagram. The pointed-toe shoes had thin straps and subtle decoration of their own, tying them to the description above.
Lipa kept things cute for her beauty routine. She kept her black hair straight and parted in the middle. Her makeup included rosy cheeks, bronzed skin and nude lips. Sheer dressing may be nothing new, but Lipa’s latest outfit further elaborates the trend.
