Dua Lipa is a book lover through and through. The pop star guest-curated the 2026 London Literature Festival this past weekend, through her Service95 Book Club, and as part of her role, she took the stage to lead live interviews and conversations with prominent authors, poets, and cultural icons. The event took place at the Royal Festival Hall in London, which Lipa made her runway in a string of designer looks: from Chanel, Prada, and Schiaparelli. Who said you had to pick between beauty and brains?
The “Training Season” singer pulled on a bright red Chanel top and skirt set from Matthieu Blazy’s Fall 2026 collection for her Saturday chat with novelist Zadie Smith. The top was trimmed with fur, and Lipa paired it with black leather lace-up boots from Le Silla.
Later that day, for her chat with Sudanese-Canadian poet, singer, and songwriter Mustafa, she slipped on a black cami and pencil skirt set, furry white heels, and flower-print socks, all pulled from Prada’s Fall 2026 collection.
The artist wrapped up her streak on Sunday, when she took the stage to speak with iconic singer, songwriter, poet, and author Patti Smith. The interview earned a standing ovation from the audience, and Lipa earned one from us, for her winning Schiaparelli look.
