Dua Lipa has returned to the studio after her wedding and honeymoon with Callum Turner, but her casual work outfit has sparked conversation due to its staggering cost of £44,872, which exceeds the average UK annual salary.
Outfit Breakdown
The Grammy winner was photographed leaving Electric Lady Studios in New York City, founded by Jimi Hendrix in 1968. Her ensemble included frayed denim shorts, a white long-sleeved T-shirt, and a backwards blue baseball cap. However, the accessories drove the price up dramatically.
Her Chanel Maxi flap bag retails at £6,610, and her Chanel ballet flats cost £950. The most expensive item was a Bulgari Serpenti Seduttori 18K yellow gold and diamond watch, priced at £36,932. A Khaite Benny leather belt added £380. The total of £44,872 is more than the median UK full-time salary of around £35,000, according to recent data.
Wedding Expenses
Dua and Callum married in June at Marylebone Town Hall, followed by a three-day celebration at Villa Valguarnera in Palermo, Sicily. The event, attended by Charli XCX and Donatella Versace, reportedly cost £1.5 million. Locals expressed discontent with graffiti reading "Palermo is not for rent." Dua reportedly compensated residents with £5,000 each.
Despite the high costs, Dua's net worth of £150 million makes such expenditures relatively minor. Fans anticipate new music following her studio sessions.
