Anya Taylor-Joy attended a photocall for the launch of Lucky at Raffles London at The OWO this afternoon.
I know some of you aren't fans of these lingerie-inspired looks from the Tom Ford Spring 2026 collection, but there are people walking around London today wearing a lot less. Trust me, it really is that hot.
Anya wore a pale blue and black lace dress from the collection, having previously chosen the longer black version of the design for the Marrakech International Film Festival closing ceremony back in December. I actually like this shorter interpretation. It feels fresh, light and perfectly suited to today's soaring temperatures.
We're used to seeing Anya bring a sense of storytelling to the red carpet, but today was all about dressing for the heatwave, and she got it exactly right.
Black sandals and Tiffany & Co. jewellery and black sandals completed her look.

The upcoming weekend is a big one, and not just because the United States is celebrating its 250th Independence Day. Pop star Taylor Swift and NFL tight end Travis Kelce are reportedly having their wedding over the holiday weekend. The couple has been together since summer of 2023 and got engaged in August of 2025. Now it's time for the 14-time Grammy winner and the three-time Super Bowl winner to tie the knot.
Rumors have been circulating for weeks about the potential location and what the festivities will entail. Anticipation may be high, but details are limited so here's what (we think) we know so far.
When the news broke that the iconic basketball venue was the location for the wedding, it was met with mixed reactions. But when it comes down to it, MSG makes so much sense for someone with the popularity of Swift. The Garden has no windows and a closed roof, making it impossible for paparazzi or snooping fans to get any pictures or drone shots of the event. It has a private, underground entrance, meaning the privacy of the high-level guests will be protected.
For those worried about the aesthetics, don't. They won't be getting married under the Jumbotron with the guests sitting in the stands after grabbing a snack from the concourse. It's going to look like a new place.
It seems like a smaller event -- around 100 people -- is scheduled for 100 people, with a larger event taking place on July 3.

A comedian who has been working in the entertainment industry for more than six decades said "people's laughter" has kept him going.
James Dawn, 80, started sending comedy scripts to the BBC when he was 18 and has written material for some of the greats including Bob Monkhouse, Tom O'Connor, Russ Abbott and Les Dennis.
Dawn, who said he believed he is the oldest working comedian in the UK, spent much of his career doing stand-up gigs and can still be seen touring on the comedy circuit.
"I love it when you hit the end of a gag and, bang, they're rolling. It raises the soul somehow," said Dawn, who lives in the Forest of Dean in Gloucestershire.

There's a whole lot of talent packed into some of these birthdates!
There are only 365 options for what day a person can be born (except in a Leap Year — we see you Feb. 29 babies!), but that doesn't mean it's not still surprising to see just how many celebrities share a birthday.
Maybe some A-lister traits were written in the stars? After all, Dec. 13 claims three triple threats — Taylor Swift, ****** Van ****** and Jamie Foxx — while some spouses, including long-lasting Hollywood couple Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones share a birthday. Then there's Jan. 13, when six famous faces all get to blow out their birthday candles.
These celebs have more in common than just tons of talent and legions of adoring fans — see which stars are surprising birthday twins (or triplets or quadruplets!).
