It’s bold, unexpected, and totally captivating. As someone who’s seen trends rise and fall through the years, I gotta say, with Dua leading this charge, the backwards hat is about to score a major style revival. Curious how she’s mixing vintage Saint Laurent, sleek Schiaparelli, and even a sparkly Oséree bikini into this fresh vibe? Well, buckle up—it’s all here in one dazzling photo dump. LEARN MORE

Are we about to enter frat boy spring? If so, don’t be surprised if Dua Lipa is the one leading the charge.

Over the weekend, the “Dance the Night” singer posted another one of her classic photo dumps to Instagram, where she highlighted some of her recent looks, as well as moments spent with family and friends. She also repped a surprising new go-to accessory.

“A few weeks on the west coast,” Lipa captioned the post.

The slideshow included photos taken from Oscars night, where the singer wore a glittering purple gown from Gucci before switching into a sculptural Schiaparelli dress. Other images were taken during meals out, tennis matches, sunny drives, and poolside tanning moments. (And there were also cameos from the likes of Elton John, Tove Lo, photographer and director Nabil, and Lipa’s fiancé, Callum Turner.)

All throughout, Lipa wears a number of notable fits, from a Gucci GG monogram top layered underneath a matching monogram coat from the house’s Spring 2026 collection, to a floral Saint Laurent jacket from the ’80s and a sequined Oséree bikini.

Yet, her most standout accessory is a blue baseball cap, which Lipa wears backwards in three different photos, offering her chic take on a traditionally bro-y styling trick. However, one of the snaps sees the English pop star really leaning into the bit, pairing the hat with a blue sports bra and an open plaid flannel, as if she had just left a summer block party.

If anyone is able to make the backwards hat cool again, it’s Lipa.
