Pop star Dua Lipa is used to taking centre stage.
But the 26-year-old musician shows off her skills on a different kind of arena in a new evian campaign.
Dua stars opposite British tennis poster girl Emma Raducanu, 19, in a new campaign that sees her duck from balls and throw her racket around as she tries to emulate her all-star tutor’s technique.
While Emma is dressed in tennis whites, Dua shows off more skin in a figure-hugging body suit with a low-cut neckline and daring cut-out at her midriff.
She finished the look with a pair of green cargo pants and white trainers.
In a nod to the sporty setting, the singer pulled her brunette locks back into a sleek high ponytail that’s perfect for the court.
Meanwhile Emma – who also has advertising deals with Tiffany & Co. and Vodaphone – looked stylish in a white top, skirt and matching jacket.
Drawing on evian’s longstanding support of tennis championships, the campaign is set on a vibrant evian pink tennis court with a visual backdrop of the structured silhouettes of mountains and glistens of snow inspired by the brand’s famous Alpine heritage.
In this playful new campaign, Emma introduces Dua to her authentic pᴀssion for the world of tennis –expertly coaching Dua on grip, technique and that all-important forehand before the pair are seen taking a break from the training.
Dua said: ‘I’m so happy to be partnering with evian again for this next campaign with the incomparable Emma Raducanu.
‘Getting to experience a bit of how Emma trains for the summer tennis season first-hand only added to the immense amount of respect I have for her and her craft.
‘I also got to turn the tables and bring her into my world to coach her through parts of my performance routine! I think both experiences allowed us to challenge ourselves in new ways, while finding common ground in the importance of being true to ourselves and sharing our pᴀssions.’
Emma said: ‘This was my first big evian campaign and we all had so much fun on set. Dua was a brilliant coach, being patient with me as I tried her dancing – I think I’ll stick to the court though!’
