If there's one thing Dua Lipa loves more than a vacation and a mirror selfie, it's using her Rimowa phone case. While my personal queen of pop has been hard at work in the studio ahead of summer 2024, I've been spotting the same ribbed cases on Olivia Rodrigo, Zendaya, Gigi Hadid, Emily Ratajkowski, and Rosé from Blackpink. Enter Rimowa, the low-key luxe travel brand that everyone's been interested in this year.

As more and more actors travel following the SAG-AFTRA strike and musicians embark on global music tours, it feels like every celebrity has adopted Rimowa suitcases. The Germany-based heritage brand, which was founded in 1898, isn't new by any means, but the ideology it represents has been gaining traction over the last few years. A growing "buy it for life" movement has given rise to a massive surge in popularity for the LVMH-owned company. With a lifetime warranty, it's a no-brainer for It girls and celebs on the go to shop the travel brand and join its legions of stylish, chic, and innovation-loving clientele.

As Rimowa's long-lasting aluminum cases become more hyped thanks to high-profile collaborations with brands such as Dior, Off-White, and Supreme, you'd be hard-pressed to find a piece that's under $500—unless you're looking for a phone case, that is.

If you're looking to adopt a chic, elevated approach to travel without spending upwards of four figures for a full set, look no further than Miss Lipa. At less than $200, Rimowa's phone cases will give you the same look for much, much less. While I'm saving up for a Rimowa Trunk as an heirloom-level investment, Dua Lipa's cool girl approved phone case will have to do for now. I already test-drove my boyfriend's for a week, and although it's a splurge, I'm impressed. Rimowa's celeb-beloved phone cases make you look and feel cooler.
