Dua Lipa's Sheer Braless Dress Inappropriate For 'Family' Movie Premiere

Dua Lipa raised eyebrows with her brazen display in 2023, and not everyone proved a fan. Rocking up to the Barbie movie premiere in a show-stopping silver dress that was entirely sheer, the British singer flashed her braless chest while showing off her cheeky thong undies, something that some users felt was inappropriate for a family-friendly movie.
Opting for glittery fishnet accents in her mesh gown, Dua highlighted her toned figure while reminding the cameras of her curves, but feedback was very lukewarm as the online space reacted.

Scroll for the photos. Modeling a custom sleeveless dress from designer Bottega Veneta, Dua drew the eye to her cleavage, ditching her bra in her shimmery gown.
Enjoying the L.A. sunshine as she dropped jaws with her body, the 29-year-old braved a chest flash while showcasing her abs, with rearview snaps revealing her skimpy underwear to be thong in design.
Alongside exposing her chest somewhat, Dua drew the eye to her gym-honed back, proving that her regular workouts pay off. The Grammy winner completed her show-stopping outfit with metallic heels in silver, a diamond chain necklace, and earrings.

Comments quickly came in as The Daily Mailshared the photos. Trashing Dua's dress as they went down the sarcastic route, one fan gained likes for writing: "At a premiere for a movie about a child’s doll? Oh, so very classy." Another user had over 300 fans agreeing when they replied:
"That's inappropriate attire to wear to such a movie premiere. Some of these people in Hollywood live for the attention,n so it's not surprising that Dua would wear something like that to upstage the star of the movie." A third, adding to the pile of negative remarks, wrote: "So much money only to look so CHEAP."

Comments were also left on a Dua Lipa fan account on Instagram, where it seemed that even diehard followers weren't impressed. Reacting to the singer's exposing look, one fan exclaimed: "Wasn’t this premiere for a kid’s movie? What a tacky, tasteless dress."
Dua has since made headlines for her 2025 Met Gala appearance, where she covered up far more while rubbing shoulders with the likes of Kim Kardashian and Miley Cyrus on the red carpet.

Dua Lipa graced the Met Gala carpet on Monday, showing off an intricate, largely black chiffon dress teamed with a boucle jacket. She opted for custom-made Chanel as she enjoys her ambassador status with the brand. Dua is also an ambassador for rival designer Versace.
"The madness of a week in NYC," she captioned an Instagram gallery, one showing her in her jaw-dropping gown.
