Dua Lipa is spreading her wings.
The 27-year-old singer is no longer just a music artist. She can now also add fashion designer to her accolades.
Dua has co-designed her first collection with Donatella Versace. The line is a women’s collection called “La Vacanza.”
Dua and Donatella shared a vision of modern elegance for the collection. “La Vacanza” means “vacation” in Italian.
Dua said:
“Donatella and I bonded over our shared love of this time of year while making this collection.
Digging through the archives we discovered we were drawn to a lot of the same references which was such an inspiring and fulfilling process. La Vacanza ranges from metallic miniskirts and sexy bikinis, to butterfly rings and printed pieces inspired by the Versace SS ’95 collection. There’s always an occasion to wear Versace, and I know I’ll be spending my days (and nights!) in La Vacanza all summer long.”
Donatella said of the collection:
“I love the summer and for me this collection celebrates the very best of that time of year. Gorgeous colors, fun prints, and light silhouettes.
This is the perfect summer collection—from lying by the pool in a fun printed bikini, to dressing-up to dance on hot summer evenings in the perfect evening dress—these clothes immediately make me think of my holidays and being in the sun. Dua loves Fashion, I love Music—we are the perfect duo! We had such a good time designing this collection together. We felt like we were on vacation and that is exactly the spirit we want people to feel when they wear our clothes.”
“La Vacanza” features the iconic Butterfly & Ladybugs print that was originally featured in the Versace Spring-Summer 1995 collection.
