Dua Lipa is one step away from making it onto the top 10 richest musical earners on the planet, banking £24.7 million over the past year.

The British pop star - who, last month, released her sophomore album Future Nostalgia - made £11.8 million last year and has now doubled her earnings.

This places her in the realms of music megastars Adele and Ed Sheeran, who sit just below the likes of veterans Sting, Mick Jagger and Elton John.

Dua Lipa is queen of the 90s aesthetic, so it came as no surprise to see the pop star arrive at the 2020 Grammy Awards in this vintage-inspired Alexander Wang outfit.

Looking sleek in her satin set, Dua paired a slip skirt with a corset-style top in the same luxurious material. Bravo to stylist Lorenzo Posocco, who added jewellery by Maria Tash too.

Bustiers and corsets are having a bit of a moment right now, so this look is bang on trend. We love how you can dress the style up or down depending on the desired look.

Sadly, Dua's set is custom, but click (right) for more from the designer. Or, if Dua has inspired you to embrace a satin style, we have you covered with our edit of satin corset tops below.
