Dua Lipa Embraces Her Inner Rodeo Girl
Dua Lipa has been on a Wild West tear since her music video “Love Again” dropped last week, in which we saw the pop star gyrating in a cow-print bikini top and riding a bull—all while wearing a cowboy hat that magically didn’t budge. The sexified ranch look has seemed to transfer to her own personal style, too. Yesterday, she Instagrammed herself in a cropped, checked Miu Miu button-up top, a red bikini top, short denim shorts, and a pair of knee-high cowboy boots. Lipa said it herself best in the caption: “having a cowgirl moment.” And a few days before that, Lipa posed at a pool in a bedazzled blue cowboy hat.
This is reminiscent of Madonna’s cowgirl phase from 2000 with her hit “Don’t Tell Me,” in which she wore a full Dsquared2 look and line-danced in the sand. Even years later, Madonna wore the hat as a statement. But, of course, this isn’t the first time we’ve seen the Western look make a trendy resurgence, either. Two summers ago, the likes of Lil Nas X, Diplo, Miley Cyrus, and Lizzo all opted for cowboy hats and gear. As for Lipa? She puts the Y2K glamour into the aesthetic, making it very much her own.
