Superstar Dua Lipa spends her time offstage at the Glastonbury Festival in true “Brat Girl Summer” style.
After finishing her headlining performance at the 2024 festival, the singer enjoyed a stroll around the festival grounds with her boyfriend Callum Turner, wearing a white cropped tank top in keeping with the minimalist summer trend and a quirky leather skirt.
The full-grain black leather skirt featured a daring thigh-high slit and was expertly worn over a pair of matching black lace shorts. To complete the daring look, Dua Lipa wore a pair of matching black leather boots – a perfect addition to her festival look.
During her performance on stage, the singer wore a series of adventurous leather looks and punk rock-esque ensembles, all styled by Jaheel Weaver. Her first look, as reported by Harper’s Bazaarshowed a custom Chrome Hearts design consisting of a lace-up leather mini dress, fishnet tights and black leather boots.

In another stage outfit, the singer rocked the Glastonbury stage in a custom-made leather bodysuit by Loewe, consisting of a glittery black halter top that reached down to her neck and matching black leather shorts.
To make the summery brat look even more perfect, Lipa complemented the leather outfit with a studded belt and lace-up boots by Gianvito Rossi.
The “Brat Girl Summer” trend of 2024 was arguably started – or at least revived – by British pop star and self-proclaimed “bad girl” Charlie XCX, who proudly calls herself a “brat.”
While she’s not the first artist to call herself a “bad girl” of the pop music genre (hello Madonna, Christina Aguilera, Miley Cyrus, and Olivia Rodrigo), Charlie XCX’s recent rant has also reached the fashion world, sparking a renaissance of baby T-shirts, neon green leather outfits, and bra-free looks.
“It can go so far – quite luxurious,” the singer said recently in an interview on the BBC Sounds Podcast explaining what the “Brat Girl Summer” trend is all about. “But it can also be as trashy as a pack of cigarettes and a BIC lighter and a white tank top without a bra.”

In a recent interview with Fashion, Dua Lipa’s stylist talked about her Glastonbury looks and what it was like working with the artist after styling fashion icon Rihanna for 13 years.
“It was a natural and quick introduction to Dua,” Weaver told the publication, later revealing that it took about a month to create the five looks Lipa rocked on stage at Glastonbury.
“And I’ve always thought she has great style. To have become a real name in the fashion world with such a distinctive look is an incredible achievement,” he continued. “But her life is evolving and there’s a lightness and effortlessness to her demeanor. It’s less ‘in your face.'”
With Glastonbury being such a significant and historic festival, Weaver said the headlining role was “such an important moment in Dua’s life”, especially as she prepared to deliver “an intense spectacle in four acts”.
“Everything was bespoke,” he added. “There were no compromises… This isn’t Coachella! But Dua Lipa is still one of the biggest pop stars in the world and so we had to make sure the looks felt just as ‘stage ready.’ That was easy because she’s so open and fun and tries everything.”
