Here comes the celebrity fashion bride. Luxury brands are turning the wedding aisle into the new Hollywood red carpet. How "Little House on the Prairie" costume designer Mitchell Travers explored the artistry of Native American makers, Americana workwear and homespun dress.

Paris couture sensation Matières Fécales, which just last week dressed Zendaya in a winged goddess gown at "The Odyssey" premiere in New York City, has joined a growing number of luxury brands that are turning the wedding aisle into the new Hollywood red carpet.
The fashion house created three wedding looks for singer/model Gabbriette Bechtel, who married English musician and 1975 frontman Matty Healy last weekend in L.A., in front of a crowd that included Charli XCX, George Daniel, Emily Ratajkowski, Alex Consani and more.
Following the nuptials, the brand issued a press release touting the event as the official launch of Matières Fécale bridalwear. The announcement arrived in my inbox on the heels of one from Saint Laurent with photos and dressing credits for Logan Lerman's Saint Laurent wedding tuxedo, and just weeks after Taylor Swift tied the knot at Madison Square Garden in a still unseen custom Jonathan Anderson Dior gown. (I predict the big reveal will be the September Vogue cover.)

For a 7-9-1 team last season, the Dallas Cowboys talk a lot about the Super Bowl.
There's nothing wrong with having big goals, and the Cowboys aren't being shy. Coach Brian Schottenheimer reminded everyone earlier this offseason that the Super Bowl is Feb. 14, 2027, and "We plan on being there." Owner Jerry Jones is on that page too.
Jones' address to the media at the start of training camp is always a must-see event, because Jones is likely to say just about anything. And on Tuesday, he was confident about his team.
Jones wouldn't specifically predict his team will make a Super Bowl, but he wasn't backing down from that chatter either.
Jones is so high on his team that he said he has already been asking around about trades.

DUBAI, July 28 (Reuters) - Iran has proposed to Oman a temporary arrangement to reopen the Strait of Hormuz under which one direction of traffic would pass through Iranian waters and part of the opposite route would also be in Iranian waters, Deputy Foreign Minister Kazem Gharibabadi told state television on Tuesday.
Gharibabadi said Tehran rejected an Omani proposal for an equal division of transit routes between the two countries, saying such a plan did not address Tehran's security concerns until long-term regional stability is achieved.
He said the Strait of Hormuz would remain closed if Muscat rejected Iran's proposal, adding that Tehran had never recognised the southern route along Oman's coast.
Gharibabadi also said Tehran had made it clear to Muscat that it no longer recognised the Traffic Separation Scheme (TSS), arguing that this pathway roughly in the middle of the waterway lies mostly within Omani waters and runs contrary to Iran's need to monitor transiting vessels after being attacked by the U.S. and Israel in late February.
The TSS, adopted by the International Maritime Organization, is currently unusable due to the risk of mines and has been replaced with Iran's northern route and Oman's southern route.

LSU is coming in hot for the 2026 college football season, with new head coach Lane Kiffin also beginning the season with a ton of hype. He comes with an extensive resume, as shown by his winning record at Ole Miss, as he has turned the program around. The question is, are they worth the hype?
During an episode of the Bussin' With The Boys podcast, Josh Pate discussed LSU and admitted that they are certainly a strong contender to win that national **** le. However, he also pointed out that there may still be a few concerns that remain to be addressed.
"They could be a nasty team. So, the only team worse than Alabama at rushing the ball in the SEC last year was LSU" he said. "But LSU went out and took proactive measures to fix that. You mentioned the offensive line acquisitions. If the offensive line is good for them, they should be good enough at tailback. They could be a nasty team this year." (1:34:02)
As for the major concerns, Pate noted that LSU has a very portal-heavy team. This could lead to some chemistry issues, as well as questions about how the team might perform in the long run.
"With any portal-heavy team, you're always going to ask: How does this talent mesh together? It feels like that's a little bit of an overused doubting point these days. It's going to work to some degree, I think," he said. "The follow-up question is: Is this the kind of team that needs a long runway to get up to speed? Because they don't really have it. They play three "losable" games in their first four weeks—because I count Clemson as a losable game."

NEW DELHI: Former Pakistan captain Zaheer Abbas has thrown his weight behind Indian batting icons Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma, insisting that both veterans still have plenty left in the tank and should be part of India's squad for the 2027 ODI World Cup.
The legendary Pakistan batter, popularly known as the 'Asian Bradman', dismissed concerns surrounding the duo's age and said their skill, experience and continued ability to score runs make them automatic contenders for the marquee tournament, which will be jointly hosted by South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia.
"Both are very, very good in terms of skill and, given their experience, I don't see any reason why they should not play the World Cup. Age should not be a factor as long as they are fit and continue scoring runs," news agency PTI quoted Zaheer as saying on a Pakistani television channel.
Zaheer, regarded as one of Pakistan's finest batters after scoring more than 100 first-class centuries during his illustrious career, believes Kohli and Rohit possess qualities that only grow stronger with time.
According to the former Pakistan skipper, scoring runs becomes second nature for players of their calibre after spending years at the highest level, while their experience remains invaluable in major ICC tournaments.
He also ******* sed the fitness of the two Indian greats, saying Kohli continues to maintain exceptional physical standards.
"Kohli is still supremely fit, while Rohit just needs to pay a little more attention to his fitness," Zaheer observed.
The Pakistan great added that India would benefit immensely from having both veterans in the dressing room during the 2027 World Cup campaign.
His remarks come at a time when speculation over the future of India's senior stars continues despite both producing match-winning performances in the ODI format.
Zaheer reserved special praise for Rohit after watching the former Indian captain's recent century against England, saying the opener's batting remains a delight to watch.
"I watched Rohit score a hundred against England, and it is still a pleasure to watch him bat. He plays so effortlessly and with such sweet timing," he said.
Rohit's knock against England once again underlined his credentials in the 50-over format, while Kohli has also continued to deliver consistently, strengthening the argument that the experienced pair could still play a crucial role at the next World Cup.
Reflecting on the changing nature of modern cricket, Zaheer acknowledged that T20 cricket has introduced several innovative strokes into the game. However, he insisted that the fundamentals remain just as important, saying every batter aspiring to succeed across formats must master traditional shots like the cover drive and the cut shot.
The former Pakistan captain also spoke about his country's cricketing future, expressing confidence that better days lie ahead.
"Hopefully, the return of Babar Azam as Test captain will turn thing

When Kat Friday, a revenue operations employee at financial technology firm Marqeta, first came across Pickle on TikTok in February 2025, she didn't think opening a storefront on the app would ever amount to much.
"I am not into fashion one bit. I wear all black everywhere," Friday tells Fortune. She initially opened the app to scan for a few outfits for an upcoming vacation. But as she scrolled through Pickle's more than 500,000 listings, Friday realized she also could use the platform to rent out an expensive camera sitting on a shelf collecting dust in her apartment.
In November 2025, she listed a Canon G7 X camera, which normally retails for around $1,000, for $150 a week, and waited for a response. The rentals came almost immediately.
"I never use this thing and people are dying for them," Friday says. "I immediately got a bunch of rentals for it, and I was like, 'Okay, I'm gonna list some other stuff.'"
The listing's success inspired Friday to add more items to her Pickle offerings, and she started uploading some shirts and dresses she barely wore. As her storefront grew, Friday even started purchasing "trendy" items in a variety of sizes, what she referred to as "investment pieces" to rent out on Pickle.

No one does a press tour quite like Zendaya. In one of her busiest years, with back-to-back releases, the star has shown the world how she makes the red carpet her runway.
With the styling help of her longtime friend and image architect Law Roach, Zendaya kicked off her year with her movie "The Drama," creating a string of edgy "something old, something new, something borrowed, and something blue" looks to match its (disastrous) wedding theme. But it's been her press tours for "The Odyssey" and "Spider-Man: Brand New Day" where she has really shined, taking the concept of method dressing to the next level.
You'd think Zendaya fatigue might have set in, but each look is new, on theme and often unexpected. And while it can seem, from a simplistic view, like an actress playing dress-up, what you're really witnessing is a connoisseur of fashion exploring the medium as a true art form. It's intentional storytelling and a combination of craft and culture uniquely derived from Zendaya's and Roach's unparalleled creative connection.
"Part of doing the press stuff and trying to make the clothes intentional is not just trying to pay homage but giving little trails of ideas and thoughts," Zendaya said in a recent interview with De Estreno. "And maybe it's true! Maybe it's confusing! That's the fun of it!"
As we await whatever the dynamic duo has in store for "Dune: Part Three" this fall, we're revisiting all the looks that captivated us, with a breakdown of reasons why Zendaya's 2026 summer press tour will stand the test of time.

90 Day Fiancé couple Jenny Slatten and Sumit Singh are pushing back on claims that her amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) diagnosis has worsened to the point where she has become dependent on her husband.
Slatten, 68, and Singh, 38, recently addressed the rumors in a video shared to Instagram on Monday, July 27.
"She is still able to do walking, talking, and everything, and she is not depending completely on anyone or even not on me," Singh began. "What you're seeing on some pages – people are posting that she is on a hospital bed and unable to do anything, which is a lie."
Slatten, who was sitting beside her husband in the clip, shook her head in agreement.
He added that she didn't "like" the rumors about her mobility, adding that they were "still hoping and praying that there will be a solution, that there will be a treatment" for Slatten's diagnosis.

Sophie Cunningham has won a lot of supporters away from the hardwood this month thanks to her comments on transgender athletes, but just as she has doubled-down, one of her closest friends since childhood in Columbia, Missouri has declared he isn't on her bandwagon.
West Wilson, Cunningham's friend since high school, serves as her co-host on the Show Me Something podcast. Over the weekend, he posted a viral TikTok video in defense of trans athletes.
"Transgender athletes in American sports is such a borderline non-existent issue. Right-wingers have convinced a massive portion of people in our country that these people are, like, a threat to sports in America, when mathematically it's not the case at all," said Wilson, 31. Fans of the reality show Summer House may remember Wilson as one of the housemates. And just like on TV, he's not shy about his opinion on this divisive issue.
"By continuing to platform this, ***** politicians, athletes, journalists, news outlets, you're only isolating transgender people even more by making them seem like this giant group of people is a threat to society, a threat to sports, when that's just not proportionately the truth in any capacity."
While not addressing Cunningham directly, he made it clear he thinks rants like hers are "dumb."

Liverpool's summer has reached the point where the shape of the squad starts to come into view, and the message from The Athletic is clear enough. The headline issue is at the top end of the pitch. Bradley Barcola is the one they want, the one they rate highest, and the one who would signal ambition at the beginning of Andoni Iraola's reign.
That matters, because this is not a normal reset. Liverpool are trying to recover direction after a turbulent campaign, move on from the post-Arne Slot fallout, and hand a new head coach the tools to build something that looks fast, aggressive and dangerous. There is no point dressing it up. They need quality, they need depth, and they need clarity.
According to the report, "Bradley Barcola remains Liverpool's top target as they look to recruit an elite replacement for Mohamed Salah." That line lands heavily because it frames the whole market for Liverpool. Replacing Salah is not a standard bit of squad maintenance. You do not replace years of goals, ******* ists, fear factor and reliability with a hopeful punt. You need a player with real pedigree, and Barcola clearly fits the bill in Liverpool's thinking.
There is a seriousness to this pursuit. The report states, "Signing the 23-year-old France international would represent a major statement of intent at the start of new head coach Andoni Iraola's reign, but agreeing a deal with Paris Saint-Germain won't be straightforward." That feels like the truth of it. Liverpool can identify the right player, they can make him a priority, but getting him away from Paris Saint-Germain is another matter entirely.
The wider market context in the same report explains why. PSG have set an eye-watering valuation and Liverpool are far from alone in coveting elite attacking talent this summer. Even so, if Liverpool are serious about refreshing the frontline properly, there is no use blinking at the hard part. You either pay for top-class potential and production or you settle for less and hope. Liverpool have done enough hoping over the years to know how risky that can be.

Officials across Europe have restated the need to use VAR only to change "blatantly incorrect" decisions and address clear missed incidents.
UEFA convened referee chiefs from all 55 national ****** ociations last week along with representatives from the International Football ****** ociation Board (IFAB), which sets the game's laws, in a bid to reach a consensus on the best approach to officiating.
There was "unanimous" support for further measures to speed up restarts, such as the time limits on substitutions and five-second countdowns for goal kicks and throw-ins.
However, arguably the most significant statement was a restating of VAR's original purpose.
"VAR must only intervene in situations of 'clear and obvious' error, i.e. when a referee decision is blatantly incorrect or when the referee has missed a clear incident," a UEFA release stated.

The regional administrative authority in Madrid has withdrawn Spanish top-flight club Rayo Vallecano's right to use the Vallecas stadium in order to begin urgent renovation work. This comes just under two weeks before the start of the season, even though the inadequate conditions have long been known.
"There is no way to guarantee that nothing can happen," explained the Regional Minister for Culture, Tourism and Sport, Mariano de Paco.
The immediate consequence is that Rayo will not be able to start the season in its own stadium. The authority gives no exact details, but ***** umes that the renovation work will take "months" and plans to begin "as early as tomorrow."
The regional government is making this decision to "ensure people's safety" and says the work will address possible problems related to fire safety or sanitation. "We will act with the utmost urgency and try to make it happen in the shortest possible time," the minister announced.
Rayo Vallecano uses the municipal stadium under a right-of-use agreement; it is not owned by this year's Conference League finalist.

The Community of Madrid has withdrawn Rayo Vallecano's concession for the Vallecas stadium in order to begin urgent renovation work. "There is no way to guarantee that nothing could happen," says the Minister for Culture, Tourism and Sport, Mariano de Paco.
The immediate consequence is that Rayo will not be able to start the season in its own stadium. The Community of Madrid has not given specifics but estimates that the renovation work will last "months" and plans to begin "as early as tomorrow."
The regional government is taking this decision to "guarantee people's safety" and explains that the works will address possible fire safety or sanitation issues. "We are going to act with total urgency and try to do it in the shortest possible time," the minister said.
Rayo Vallecano uses the municipal stadium, which it does not own, through a concession granted by the Community of Madrid.
"We carried out an audit of the stadium that produced quite bleak results regarding the stadium's maintenance. That was, as we all know, the club's responsibility and direct obligation, as was regulatory compliance and licensing, and the Community of Madrid has made the decision to temporarily pause the concession so that these renovations can be carried out," Minister Mariano de Paco explained.

Liverpool's interest in Bradley Barcola has become one of the most discussed stories of the current market, and Fabrizio Romano has now offered a pointed update on where things stand. In his latest discussion, Romano urged caution on the speed of any potential move, while making clear that the situation is alive and developing.
According to Fabrizio Romano, the key message for now is patience. He said, "many questions again tonight. I understand the excitement of Liverpool fans. I will tell you more tomorrow, but what I can say tonight as an update is don't expect something something imminent."
That line is central to the current picture around Barcola, Liverpool and PSG. The noise around the situation has grown quickly, but Romano was careful to stress that the pace of events should not be misread.
Romano addressed the intensity of the reaction around the winger directly. His wording left little room for misunderstanding as he explained, "So, I know that now everyone is jumping on the story. No one was caring about the Barcola in Liverpool in April, in May, in June, in July. Now, everyone is jumping on the story, but it doesn't mean that Liverpool signed Barcola today."
That is the current state of play as described by Romano. The conversation around Bradley Barcola and Liverpool may be gathering momentum publicly, but there is no suggestion from his update that an agreement has been completed or that a breakthrough is expected immediately.

Robbie Fowler has implored Liverpool to address one of their biggest 'problems' of recent years and ensure that there's adequate squad depth at Anfield by the end of the current transfer window.
The Reds went big in the marketplace a year ago by investing almost £450m in new signings, with much of that figure offset by player sales in a summer of massive upheaval in L4.

However, Andoni Iraola has inherited a squad shorn of several players through injuries of varying severity, although he'll gradually get his World Cup contingent back in the building over the next month.
Speaking from New York, where Liverpool play Wrexham in a pre-season friendly on Wednesday night, Fowler stressed the need for his former club to have sufficient competition for places so that every player is kept 'on their toes' and high standards are maintained on a daily basis.

Real Madrid are a couple of signings away from building a squad that Jose Mourinho will be content with taking into the new season, which gets underway in a few weeks' time. The hope is that Yan Diomande will be done in the next 48 hours, after which the club can turn their full attention to the pursuit of Manchester City and Spain midfielder Rodri.
Real Madrid had originally ruled out signing Rodri this summer, but after being priced out of a move for Enzo Fernandez, they have decided to go after the 2026 World Cup Golden Ball winner. An agreement on personal terms is already in place, with the 30-year-old very keen on a return to the Spanish capital, where he was previously with Atletico Madrid.
There is no doubt that Real Madrid are favourites to sign Rodri, who is looking more and more likely to leave Man City this summer. His unwillingness to extend his stay beyond 2027 – when his current contract expires – has alerted several clubs' attention, and while Paris Saint-Germain has been one of them, it's now been reported by Le Parisien (via Diario AS) that the reigning back-to-back European champions have ended their interest.
PSG had recognised that Rodri would be a market opportunity, but ultimately, they have decided that midfield is an area that they do not need to address this summer. That leaves Real Madrid with a free run at the world champion, although there is no guarantee that an agreement with Man City is reached in the coming weeks.
The latest is that Real Madrid are ready to pay up to €60m to sign Rodri this summer, but Man City's current stance is that any offers below €80m will not be considered. Bernabeu officials must now hope that the Premier League giants relax their stance in the coming weeks, otherwise they may need to wait until 2027 to secure his services.

It's not the way they thought they'd be spending their older years: getting two tweens ready for school and scraping together meals from food banks.
At the crack of dawn one Tuesday morning, 59-year-old Vicki Parisella bangs on her granddaughters' bedroom doors. Silence from Myaliissa's room; a whine from Tatiana's. Minutes later, Tatiana drags her backpack into the living room.
"Your shirt's on backward," Vicki tells the 11-year-old.
As if Vicki flipped an on-switch, Tatiana zooms around the living room while Vicki's husband, Sal, packs their lunches. Vicki braids Tatiana's hair and helps her put on her shoes as Myaliissa, 13, gets dressed. By 7:20, Vicki already has a headache.
Vicki and Sal, 76, are part of a growing population of 1.1 million US grandparents 60 and older who have returned to parenting roles when they expected to be retiring.

BEIJING, July 27 (Reuters) - Profits at China's industrial firms grew at a solid, though slower, pace as resilient exports helped cushion sluggish domestic demand, highlighting the economy's uneven recovery despite policymakers' efforts to spur consumption.
Exports and industrial production have done much of the heavy lifting for the world's second-largest economy. Persistent weakness in consumption and the property sector, however, helped drag second-quarter growth to its slowest pace in more than three years, keeping calls alive for further policy support to address economic imbalances.
Industrial profit growth eased to 15.1% in June from 21.1% in May, while first-half profits rose 18.7% from a year earlier, compared with an 18.8% increase in the January-to-May period, data from the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) showed on Monday.
"If this recovery can be sustained, it will be a good sign for the rest of the economy, as a return of profits growth could give companies room to resume wage growth," said Lynn Song, chief economist of Greater China at ING.
The figures add to evidence of a two-speed recovery in the world's second-largest economy, where manufacturers have benefited from robust overseas demand, while sectors tied to domestic spending continue to struggle.

Amid the excitement of the 2026 WNBA All-Star celebrations, WNBA Commissioner Cathy Engelbert announced the launch of a Replay Center beginning with the 2027 season, a move intended to address concerns about officiating and on-court safety raised by players, coaches and fans.
"This is one of the most significant investments we've ever made in our basketball operations," said Engelbert during the All-Star pregame press conference on Saturday. "This investment of tens of millions of dollars will help bring greater consistency, efficiency, and transparency to our officiating process, while continuing to improve the quality of the game."
Engelbert shared few details about the project but said that the WNBA will center operations alongside the NBA Replay Center in Secaucus, N.J., where officials will have access to additional camera angles and replay footage to help them make better-informed decisions.
Los Angeles Sparks forward and WNBPA president Nneka Ogwumike welcomed the move, emphasizing the positive impact it can have on the relationship between players and the league.

It's no secret how badly Bayern Munich wanted to sign Nick Woltemade, but there was a ceiling to what they were willing to pay in order to get him. Apparently, that ceiling was offensive to VfB Stuttgart chairman Alexander Wehrle.
According to a report from Goal, Wehrle took a "swipe" at Bayern Munich during the club's annual general meeting, addressing both transfer negotiations and fan support.
Speaking to club members, Wehrle revisited the high-profile transfer saga involving the striker. Despite rumors that Woltemade had previously settled on personal terms with the Bavarian giants, Bayern's valuation peaked at €60 million, considerably less than the selling price. Stuttgart held firm on their evaluation of at least €75 million for the attacker before eventually reaching an agreement with Newcastle United, who met, and exceeded, their asking price. Wehrle dismissed any notion that Stuttgart was acting out of spite towards Bayern, explaining that the financial proposal from Munich amounted to little more than "a ****** er pretzel."
The Stuttgart executive also took a direct jab at the atmosphere created by the traveling support from Munich. Reflecting on their DFB-Pokal final clash in May, Wehrle claimed that their supporters completely dominated the stadium, and that he couldn't hear any Bayern fans in attendance.
Stuttgart's firm negotiating stance ultimately secured a record fee from the Magpies. But on the other hand, Wehrle's cheeky comments regarding fan noise were clearly designed to rally the local faithful, after his statements were met with "thunderous applause."

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Trump administration asked the Supreme Court on Monday to clear the way for an executive order from President Donald Trump that could dramatically change mail-in voting ahead of November's midterm elections.
The Justice Department asked the justices to halt for now lower court decisions blocking the sweeping changes in nearly half the country.
The request comes shortly after Trump delivered a primetime address elevating his yearslong push to raise doubts about the legitimacy of elections, and could be one of several voting-related challenges before the court ahead of the high-stakes midterm contest.
Trump ordered the government in March to create a "state citizenship list" of eligible voters and deliver mail ballots only to people on that list.
Democratic officials in 23 states and the District of Columbia sued, saying the Constitution gives states and Congress the authority to set election rules, not the president. Their attorneys have said Trump's proposed changes are ripe for abuse and could cause chaos.

Vita Vea's trade request should put the San Francisco 49ers on the phone with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
NFL Network reported that Vea asked to be moved after extension talks stalled. The two-time Pro Bowler is entering the final year of his contract with a $17 million base salary, giving San Francisco a rare chance to address one of its most uncertain position groups with a proven difference-maker.
The 49ers may also fit Vea's preferred destination. Football **** yst Ted Nguyen reported on X, citing a source, that Vea "wants to go to a California team or the Raiders." A return to the Bay Area would carry obvious appeal for Vea, who attended Milpitas High School before becoming the No. 12 pick in the 2018 NFL Draft.
Vita Vea could give the 49ers needed durability and interior pressure while forming a dominant front with Nick Bosa and Osa Odighizuwa. Getty Images
The strongest argument for pursuing him is also the simplest: Vea nearly matched the entire 49ers interior defensive line's pressure production by himself last season.

With head coach Kyle Shanahan stepping back to focus on his recovery, acting head coach Chris Foerster stepped up to the podium following the San Francisco 49ers' opening practice of training camp. While Foerster attempted to keep the mood light and constructive, he couldn't completely avoid addressing a familiar and unwelcomed theme in Santa Clara…early-camp injuries.
Two major offseason free-agent additions failed to make it to the end of Sunday's session. Both offensive tackle Vederian Lowe and veteran wideout Christian Kirk left the field prematurely with athletic trainers.
Foerster was tight-lipped regarding specific medical timelines, deferring the official injury reporting back to Shanahan's protocol. However, this is what he did say:
"We'll see. It's his ankle," Foerster said when pressed on Lowe's status. "We'll see exactly what it is. With all the injuries, I know Kyle goes through the report. I'm not doing that. We'll see. Hopefully, he's not that bad."
While Lowe's ankle issue was clear, Kirk's sudden exit was equally concerning. Mid-practice, the veteran wide receiver quietly walked off the field alongside medical personnel.
