I look for clothes that reflect strength and fearlessness, but also match up to today’s fast pace. So I’m excited to be co-creating with /Nyden on my designs – it’s going to be a collection that’s completely suited to me, both onstage and off, and for my fans. It seemed like a very exciting opportunity to begin with and I didn't really know how much I would actually enjoy it, and how many ideas I'd have. But I love dressing up, I love experimenting with colors. It's really exciting to get to channel that into my own designs. So, I'm really enjoying this new role.

Dua is one of the most renowned pop artists in the world today. Her strong and fierce attitude, not to mention distinctive style, make her a perfect fit for the /Nyden tribe and philosophy. Dua’s inspiring outlook and style is why we have chosen to work with her and co-create multiple collections.

In late February 2019 she starred in the image of a Pepe Jeans London campaign for the spring/summer 2019 collection.

On 13 April 2019, she became a UNICEF supporter on a three-day visit to a camp for refugee children and youth in Beirut, Lebanon that is supported by the said humanitarian agency; including many uprooted by the conflict in Syria.

For a female artist, it takes a lot more to be taken seriously if you’re not sat down at a piano or with a guitar, you know? For a male artist, people instantly assume they write their own music, but for women, they assume it’s all manufactured.

I’m lucky in that I haven’t really had any sexual harassment in any way. But I think #MeToo is so important. You know, even from school, growing up with kiss chase or whatever, it’s been ingrained in our heads that boys will be boys and its harmless fun and no big deal and to brush things off. Like catcalling. To some it might not seem a lot, but it affects your mood, people get embarrassed about the way they dress. For lots of females, be it actresses, singers, models, no matter what it is, it’s not being able to have the right to dress and wear how and what you want and be taken seriously.

Feminism to me is not man-hating, it’s just being like we deserve the same opportunities. You hear so much about all these strong important men who have changed the world, even in history and the story of mankind, somehow the fucking story starts with: "Well, the man did this".

I also want to thank every single female that has been on the stage before me, that has given girls like me — not just girls in the music industry but girls in society — a place to be inspired by, to look up to, and have allowed us to dream this big. Thank you so, so much. Here's to more women on these stages, more women winning awards, and more women taking over the world.

At the age of 14, Lipa began posting YouTube covers of her favourite songs by artists such as Pink and Nelly Furtado.

They really wanted her, so she had the focus of the team from day one." In August 2015, Lipa released her first single "New Love", produced by Emile Haynie and Andrew Wyatt. Her second single, "Be the One", was issued to European success in October 2015, reaching number one in Belgium, Poland and Slovakia, as well as charting within the top ten in over eleven European territories.

The singer's first name means "love" in Albanian; Lipa elaborated: "Now I'm proud of it. [...] But when I was growing up, all I wanted was to be called Hannah, Sarah, Ella... anything normal. Because with Dua you had to explain: I'm from Kosovo." Her father—Dukagjin Lipa—is a marketing manager and the lead vocalist in the Kosovan rock band Oda, while her mother—Anesa Lipa (née Rexha)—works in tourism. Lipa further has a younger sister and a younger brother.
