At 5 feet 8 inches (172.7 cm), the English singer-songwriter gracefully debunks the myth of being 5 feet 10 inches, a height often attributed to her, clarifying on Twitter that she is 5 feet 8 inches tall.

From Shortest in Class to a Fashion Icon: Dua Lipa’s Growth Spurt Journey
Interestingly, Dua’s journey to her current height was marked by an unexpected twist during her teenage years. At 14, she was the shortest in her class, prompting her mother to encourage basketball to possibly spur growth.
However, Dua’s interest in the sport waned, and she left the court behind. At 16, nature took its course, giving her a growth spurt that brought her to her current height, much to her amusement.
Dua Lipa’s height is above the average American woman, who typically stands around 5 feet 4 inches (162.5 cm). Her US shoe size of 8.5 translates to a 6.5 in the UK, a 39 in European sizing, and a 25.5 in Japan.
