The average good suit is a lot of things (chic, understated, and professional being key buzzwords), but you likely don’t think of it as a glitzy going-out piece, right? Wrong! As Dua Lipa proved this week, a tailored two-piece is totally dazzling – so long as it’s covered in jewels. In a series of Instagram fit pics, the star served up her take on suiting, and it has us rethinking our approach entirely.
In between rehearsals for her ongoing Future Nostalgia tour, Lipa snapped some photos in a blingy suit from Jacquemus’s spring/summer 2022 collection (the designer, Simon Porte Jacquemus, was right by her side). With dangling crystals covering the entirety of the look, the design felt surprisingly formal and ready for a party. The way she styled it helped, too. Lipa paired it with big blue earrings and crystal-studded mules.
Now, sure, throwing on statement jewellery can always take a look from day to night – but why sport diamond accessories for a night on the town when you can rock an entirely bejewelled outfit? Stars like Lipa and Miley Cyrus are already on board with the über-glamorous suit, as are labels like Tom Ford and Versace. It’s safe to say we are now, too.
