Dua Lipa Chooses Runway Dress for Met Opera Premiere

A night at the opera calls for a special outfit, and Dua Lipa delivered just that at the Metropolitan Opera’s debut of “Lincoln in the Bardo.” The singer arrived in a black, off‑the‑shoulder gown taken from Maximilian Davis’s latest Ferragamo spring 2027 collection. The relaxed‑fit dress features an ultra‑thin halter strap, a thigh‑high slit that reveals a bodysuit underneath, and a cascade of black sequins that catch the light. A dramatic train adds a formal touch, while Lipa kept her look simple with black runway‑style pumps and a single earring.

The same Ferragamo line has already attracted other red‑carpet attention. At the 2026 Academy Gala, actress Sarah Paulson wore another Davis creation—a bronze, mock‑neck midi dress with a slashed midsection and an elegant trailing train. Paulson paired the piece with oversized earrings and gold‑tipped, pointy‑toe pumps, embracing a more embellished approach.

Whether styled with bold accessories like Paulson or left understated like Lipa, Ferragamo’s shimmering, armor‑inspired gowns have become a standout choice for this season’s gala events.
