It wasn't enough for Dua Lipa to floor us with a new hair color — her natural chocolate brunette, back by "popular demand" — no, she also had to hit us with a full-on look we can only describe as absolutely smoking.

Her complicated-looking top appears to be a long-sleeve corset bodysuit with cutouts at the décolletage and shoulders, featuring an elegant twist at the neckline and ruching down the center bodice. Her trousers, cut like suiting separates, fit Lipa like a dream and include a fresh, oversized chain detail at the front fastening — a signature for the season from designer Alexander Wang. The exact style is sold-out, but we found a similar pair by Wang for less, ditto for her top.

Lipa's bag and shoes are also both by Wang. She wore the Sienna Bungee Sandal and Ryan Logo Shoulder Bag, which brought major not-here-to-play energy to this high-effort, high-effect outfit. (Can you tell we miss seeing celebs dress up?)

While this particular corset-style top feels unique to the designer, we've seen the bustier trend coming from a few creators lately. Dion Lee has had his boned designs worn by Kourtney Kardashian and Bella Hadid, among others, and the designer also makes a long-sleeve cutout top that's similar to the one Lipa's wearing. Influencer-loved brand Orseund Iris makes a few "evergreen" corset styles like this Victorian blouse and this velvet-trim bustier that have remained stylish season after season. And even industry darling Simon Porte Jacquemus sent a few versions out on his latest runway earlier this week.

All this to say: Go off Dua.
