The post, captioned “V-Day in Berlin Rosebush Pruning Premiere,” opened with a red carpet shot of Dua Lipa and Turner posing arm in arm. With their hands wrapped around each other and Lipa gazing at him affectionately, the couple appeared completely in love.

She closed out the post with another heart-melting moment: Lipa and Turner holding hands and laughing together, perfectly capturing the warmth and joy of the evening.

Dua Lipa's outfit was crafted from open-work lace with a delicate web-like pattern that ran seamlessly from bodice to hem, resulting in it being completely sheer. Underneath the dress, she wore a black thong, offering a semblance of modesty while still maintaining the sensual allure.
Its bust area was decorated with subtle fringe-like details, making it less transparent. This detail also appeared at the hem of the dress, giving it a textured feel.
The dress had an off-the-shoulder neckline that highlighted her collarbones and shoulders while adding a refined edge as its body-skimming silhouette amplified its allure.
She paired the dress with a black and white choker necklace, matching earrings, and her engagement ring.

The post sparked mixed reactions from fans and critics. While many admirers described the look as “beautiful” and “breathtaking,” others were less impressed, particularly with how revealing the outfit was.
“Ridiculous outfit. Why not have anything on?" commented one.
“Why you half naked, wtf,” another asked.
“I wish she would have worn something beautiful,” typed a third.
Beyond the fashion critique, some users also weighed in on her relationship with Turner, claiming they “could not understand what she’s doing with him” and suggesting she was out of his league.

More recently, Lipa performed at the 2026 BRIT Awards in a glittering black halter playsuit with a plunging V neckline that extended down to her torso and drew attention to her chest. Its lower portion sat high on her thigh, elongating and showing off her legs.
Under the playsuit, she wore a pair of black fishnet tights tucked into pointed-toe ankle boots that glittered like the playsuit. Layered over the playsuit was an oversized white shaggy coat with a long feathery texture that added a dash of old Hollywood drama to the mix.
For accessories, she wore a statement diamond necklace crafted to look like a snake with a Y-shaped effect that mirrored the deep plunge of the halter neckline. She paired this with statement diamond rings and matching earrings.
