Dua Lipa Stuns in Deep-Blue Dress at Elton John AIDS Foundation Party
Dua Lipa shined alongside Elton John at the 34th Annual Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party.
Wearing a custom deep-blue Gucci gown, the “Levitating” star arrived at West Hollywood Park on Sunday night, March 15, accompanied by her fiancé, Callum Turner.
The next day, Dua Lipa shared glimpses from the event on Instagram.
“The Elton John AIDS Foundation does incredible work supporting HIV prevention, treatment, and care worldwide,” the Radical Optimism Tour star wrote. “Last night was a beautiful, fun, and meaningful way to come together as a community and support this amazing cause.”
She added, “Grateful to have been a part of it last night!! I love you so much @eltonjohn @davidfurnish ❤️,” showing her appreciation for the hosts.
The evening was hosted by Elton John and David Furnish, with co-hosts Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka.
The collection of photos and videos showcased 30-year-old Dua Lipa posing with her Masters of the Air co-star on the red carpet, as well as sharing a tender moment with the legendary pianist and EGOT winner, Elton John.
She wore a shimmering, semi-sheer gown made from thousands of beaded strands, creating a liquid-like, “shredded” effect. The dress featured long sleeves and a daring plunging neckline that extended toward her waist.
Her hair was styled in sleek, pin-straight strands with a center part, complemented by neutral, bronzy makeup.
Beyond her red carpet appearance, one of the Grammy winner’s iconic stage outfits took center stage at the night’s live auction.
A custom bright-pink Jean Paul Gaultier corset, previously worn by Dua Lipa during a private 2025 performance at The Abbey, was the highlight. The piece sold for $260,000, significantly contributing to the foundation’s record-breaking $10.6 million total raised.
To show her appreciation, Elton John shared their photo on his Instagram Stories with the caption: “@dualipa, thank you for all you do and your love, your support of @ejaf ❤️.”
Lipa and John share a long-standing bond dating back to their 2021 collaboration on the hit remix Cold Heart, which combined his classics like Rocket Man and Sacrifice. Their successful partnership, featured on his album The Lockdown Sessions, also included a live performance at the Royal Albert Hall.
