Dua Lipa’s Leather Corset and Zipped Thong Hotpants Prove She’s the Ultimate Biker Babe

Our favorite artists are just as recognizable by their on-stage ensembles as they are by the catchy bops they perform. Enter: Sabrina Carpenter, whose style MO is showgirl chic in crystal bustiers, suspenders, bardot tops, and frilly underwear. Oh, and let’s not forget Beyoncé’s cowboy boots and hat, which together give a Westerncore edge to her lace catsuits now that she’s in her Cowboy Carter era.

As for Dua Lipa? She’s adopted a glam grunge aesthetic we personally can’t get enough of. Case in point? Her outfit for the iHeartRadio Festival a few weeks ago: a barely-there, plunging black waistcoat that put her chainmail bra on full display, paired with a black maxi skirt and an undone central zip that created a major leg slit.

Luckily, the musician channeled that same ~vibe~ during her performance at the Austin City Limits Music Festival over the weekend (Saturday, October 5), taking the theme one step further and proving she’s the ultimate biker babe.

The songstress performed in a custom Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood ensemble for the event. Dua’s look was handcrafted in the fashion house’s London atelier and consisted of a black leather corset with silver bondage zip detailing across the bodice complete with the brand’s signature Vivienne Westwood orb hardware.

The celeb added matching black leather micro hotpants in a thong cut with a zipper running from the front, down through the gusset, and finishing at the back waistband. She layered the hotpants over black floral lace leggings and wore black knee-high boots to complete the rock chic ‘fit.

Her fans were loving the look, taking to Instagram to comment things like:

Long may her glam grunge era continue!
