Dua Lipa sparked very mixed reactions three years ago as she rocked up to the L.A. premiere of hit movie Barbie. Showing off her fit figure in a barely there, chainmail dress in 2023, the singer flashed her bare chest through her see-through look, one boasting sparkly accents and a silver color palette. Turning heads in her sheath dress while on the red carpet, Dua wore only a cheeky thong beneath her gown, checking boxes for the “naked dress trend” but seemingly offending some fans. Users reacting to the photos didn’t unanimously slam Dua’s look, but a hugely popular comment did call it “inappropriate.” Barbie stars Australian actress Margot Robbie and Hollywood heavyweight Ryan Gosling. Dua had a cameo appearance as Mermaid Barbie.
Scroll for the photos. Highlighting her muscular frame in a Bottega Veneta dress that clung to her every curve, Dua wowed in a skintight, sleeveless, sparkly dress with some glitter woven into the chainmail fabric.
The “New Rules” star, who has made 2026 headlines for marrying husband Callum Turner, braved exposing her chest for the cameras, showcasing her braless cleavage alongside flaunting her world-famous abs.

Going slinky in a floor-length look that mostly covered her heels, Dua exposed her backside in rearview snaps, reminding fans of her thong bottoms and her peachy rear. Dazzling in diamond jewelry, the Grammy winner completed her look with warm, glowing makeup, plus her brunette locks worn down.
“It’s very sparkly and fun,” Dua said while speaking about her fashion choice. She added: “I just thought it would match my mermaid character in Barbie, so I just went with that.” While some fans loved Dua’s bold dress, others thought that she was pushing the boundaries, especially as she was attending the premiere of a family-friendly movie.
Sheer Braless Dress ‘Inappropriate’ For The Occasion
Slamming the look, one Daily Mail user wrote: “That’s an inappropriate attire to wear to such a movie premiere. Some of these people in Hollywood live for the attention so it’s not surprising that Dua would wear something like that to upstage the star of the movie.” Over 300 fans upvoted the remark.
A similar number of likes were left to a comment reading: “At a premiere for a movie about a child’s doll? Oh so very classy.” Also unimpressed was the fan writing: “Put some proper clothes on! It’s a movie about dolls for little girls!” While some positive comments including “stunning” and “perfection” were left, these didn’t get many likes.
