Dua Lipa and Cara Delevingne Attend WSJ. Magazine Innovator Awards

Dua Lipa and Cara Delevingne were among the notable attendees at the 2026 WSJ. Magazine Innovator Awards held Thursday at MoMA in New York. The event celebrated individuals recognized for their significant contributions across various fields.

Dua Lipa arrived in a textured black and white Chanel suit and a matching hat, showing support for Chanel creative director Matthieu Blazy, who was honored for his work in fashion. Blazy was also the designer of Lipa's bespoke wedding dress, which she wore earlier this summer.

Other honorees included Rosalía for music, Amy Poehler for comedy, Martin McDonagh for film, Demis Hassabis for technology, Marlon James for literature, and the Savannah Bananas for sports.

Cara Delevingne, 34, attended the event in white velvet trousers paired with an Erdem tuxedo jacket and a long scarf. Also present were Lupita Nyong'o in a Brandon Maxwell dress, and Ciara, who recently announced her fifth pregnancy, in a LaPointe dress alongside her husband Russell Wilson.

Lipa recently spoke about her summer wedding to actor Callum Turner, describing the event as "magical." She shared that she and her husband focused on cherishing the day and staying connected amidst the celebration. The couple, who legally married in May, held a larger ceremony in Italy.

Reflecting on her personal life and its influence on her music, Lipa noted a shift in her songwriting. Previously drawing inspiration from heartbreak, she expressed interest in exploring the complexities of being in a loving relationship, moving beyond the intensity of romantic pain to capture quieter, more nuanced emotions.
