Dua Lipa is not done showcasing her summer wardrobe, and this time she let go of her Barbiecore style and chose to be a mermaid. On July 30th, Lipa elegantly presented herself by the water’s edge, adorned in a striking crimson crochet gown. This vibrant attire draped gracefully over a black thong, complemented by glistening gold accessories and a sun-kissed makeup ensemble. A multitude of admirers in the comment section observed the harmonious interplay of red and black, reminiscent of the Albanian flag, her home country—a motif Lipa had previously showcased in a different post.
After some heavy promotions for the Barbie premiere, Dua has been on an extended vacation with her family in her country of Albania. She’s posted numerous inspirational looks for the summer, but of course, none of that comes without a little bit of backlash. On July 27th, Dua snapped a gorgeous photo of herself sitting on a couch in a white mini dress, which seemed harmless, but fans quickly turned on the ‘One Kiss’ singer when the second picture depicted her lighting a cigarette for a smoke. Many users commented on how her audience mostly consists of young people and that she shouldn’t glamorize smoking on her platform.

Dua Lipa Is A Mermaid In A Red Maxi Dress
Lipa embraced the trending Mermaidcore vibe, donning a shell-inspired, bustier-style red crochet dress by Blumarine.
This delicately woven attire seamlessly intertwined with Y2K influences, as exemplified by Lipa’s clever pairing of the floor-length dress with playful peek-a-boo black undergarments.
The choice of her ensemble harmoniously suited the picturesque setting, which was along the Albanian Ionian Sea coastline. Lipa unveiled a collection of captivating photographs, capturing her in the dress that seemingly grazed the rocky terrain. She captioned her post, “Charging my crystals,” referring to her crystal necklace draped on her chest.
Her makeup was kept very minimal, as she donned a rosy lip tint and showed off her natural beauty with her sun-kissed cheeks and nose. Her dark hair was styled down as it danced along with the wind in every snapshot.

Dua Lipa Sits Pretty In A Mini Dress But Faces Backlash For Smoking
The ‘New Rules’ hitmaker kept dropping stunning images of her luxurious getaway for her fans to see, but she ran into some trouble in her comments section when fans criticized her for posting an image of her lighting up her cigarette.
Dua sat pretty on a beige couch in a satin ivory mini dress during golden hour as she slicked back all her hair in a bun with a beautiful backdrop of the shoreline. Everything seemed perfect until the second slide, where she stuck a cigarette in her mouth and can be seen trying to light it up.
Fans had a lot to say in her comments section about her smoking habit, and most of it was negative. One user wrote, “Dua, come on, you know the smoking is not a good idea. It will wreck your health and your voice.” Another user commented, “PLEASE STOP PROMOTING SMOKING CIGS. It’s NOT COOL OR EDGY. KIDS ARE WATCHING YOU!!!” One of her fans said, “It’s so ridiculous to see people telling her to stop smoking, mind your own business.”
Regardless of the backlash, Dua is living her best life with her family and continues to drop stunning photos in Albania in stylish get-ups!
