The Dua Lipa x Versace collection recently debuted in Cannes, sharing a full range of lifestyle looks from bikinis and evening gowns to beachwear and accessories. The Versace La Vacanza women's collection cast a vision for an elegant Italian vacation and included iconic details like the butterfly and ladybug print from Versace’s spring/summer 1995 collection, as well as mesh to recall the era of 90s supermodels.
The Versace cruise 2023 collection draws upon even more references from the luxury label’s archives since Donatella Versace and Dua Lipa bonded over their interest in the same references. The summery Versace collection co-designed by Dua Lipa looks to the past but also the future as well, and its styles are full of eye-catching colors, fun prints and silhouettes that are fitting for all sorts of luxurious warm weather activities and occasions.
