The capsule is the first of its kind between Twigs and the Swiss sportswear brand. The partnership is meant to push boundaries while emphasizing the power of movement and self-expression, notions that Twigs seems to be all about. 'I live a busy and varied life, often moving between training, meetings, and studio sessions in a single day. I wanted to create pieces that could move with me through those shifts – pieces that feel sensual and strong, and reflect all the different sides of who I am,' Twigs stated in a press release. 'This capsule collection is about feeling confident in your body and free to express yourself – whether you're dancing, creating, or just moving through your day.'
The collection was made available June 26 and is comprised of utilitarian pieces, likely inspired by Twigs' own muted wardrobe. You've got everything from low-impact sports bras to buttery soft skorts and a collaborative sneaker, the Cloud x FKA. Each piece is athleisure-inspired and designed to move in harmony with the body. The capsule also includes a slew of accessories, from cropped caps to hooded scarfs that scream Eusexua. In celebration of the capsule's drop, we're rounding up a few of our faves for you to shop now on On Running's website.

A collaborative sneaker with FKA Twigs and On Running.
This sneaker is like stepping on a cloud. It's springy and flexible, cushioning the wearer's feet for everyday wear. Retailing for $180.00, this unisex shoe is made of a mixture of recycled polyester and synthetic suede that transitions into breathable mesh paneling and On Running's CloudTec, a cushioning system that absorbs shock for a soft underfoot and a bouncy feel with every step. Finally, bright contrasting red open mesh tongues give way to rubber tread that gives the sneaker a non-slip finish.
This sneaker, like many pieces in this capsule, is inspired by movement, specifically dance. Thanks to this, the shoe is flexible, reflecting the artistic movement of a ballerina. Speaking of, the extended lacing featured on this model can be laced up the ankles, creating a ballet shoe-esque look. We love the Lily colorway because of the contrasting pops of color. If that isn't your thing, the Cloud x FKA also comes in a monochrome Black or Desert, a khaki color.

We can picture this skort worn during a stint on the treadmill sweating up a storm, styled alongside a khaki-colored bodysuit or sports bra.

Baggy black trousers.
These pants were made for the club and beyond. These loose pants come in Black and Cinder | Desert, two neutral colorways that can easily be styled in a number of ways. The fit is relaxed with wide legs, adjustable drawstring closures and an elasticized waist. You've also got statment-making details like contrasting stitching and wide pockets that contrast the casual nature, offering the piece dimension.
These pants are meant to sit low on the hips, imparting a sort of 'streetwear' vibe that meshes well with Twigs' personal style. To style, we'd likely wear these with something more fitted on top to offset the baggy silhouette. We're thinking something like a bra top or cropped tee. To play on the sportswear look, we'd pair these with sneakers in colorful hues, bringing life to the otherwise neutral trousers.

A long sleeve top with a form fit.
This piece is exceptionally comfortable. It's insulated for colder climates and comes in a skin-tight fit that works to accommodate the body's movements. The stretch fabric is fixed with unique red contrasting stitching that transitions into thumb holes and an open boatneck neckline, two stylistic details that give the top a fashionable flair. For those intense workouts, this top is also moisture-wicking. We love the Lily colorway for its contrasting detailing, but the Cinder | Desert and Black colorways are great too.

Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez Closed Out Their Venice Wedding with a Pajama-Themed Party — and Their Celeb Guests Went All Out
Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez closed out their Venice wedding with a pajama-themed party with their guests on Saturday, June 28 The couple tied the knot in a ceremony on the island of San Giorgio Maggiore on Friday, June 27 They celebrated their nuptials with around 200 guests, including numerous celebritiesAfter tying the knot in a black-tie wedding in Venice, Italy, Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez celebrated with a pajama party — and some of their guests really leaned into the theme. On Saturday, June 28, numerous stars were photographed making their way via water taxi to the post-wedding bash. While some opted for formal attire, others embraced the dress code and sported stylish PJ sets, dressing gowns, robes and the like. Usher made a statement in a blue tuxedo look with a twist. Instead of a traditional jacket, he wore a long robe with white piping details. Leonardo DiCaprio wore a burgundy pajama set, topped with a black jacket, and Brian Grazer walked on the wild side in an animal-print set. Bill Gates put a designer spin on the theme in Prada pajamas, while Oprah Winfrey and Gayle King both opted for glamorous looks. The former talk show host wore a shimmery bronze ensemble featuring feather-trimmed cuffs, while the CBS News journalist rocked a tank dress topped with a colorful patterned robe. Kim Kardashian, meanwhile, went for a more sultry take on the theme, stepping out in a revealing corseted look with sheer stockings and garters. Lauren revealed the fun detail about the pajama party to Vogue, telling the magazine she planned to wear an Atelier Versace strapless georgette dress detailed with crystal mesh embroidery, along with a matching dressing gown, for the occasion. As for the newlyweds' guests, they were gifted the perfect footwear for the pajama party. The men received Vibi Venezia blue velvet Venetian slippers, and the women were given plush, black open-toe slippers from Amazon, according to Vogue. 'So you have a little of both!' Lauren — who, shortly after the ceremony, changed her name on her Instagram bio to Lauren Sánchez Bezos — told the outlet. For the main event on Friday, June 27, Lauren walked down the aisle — escorted by her two sons, Nikko, 24, and Evan, 19 — in a custom-designed Dolce & Gabbana dress, featuring a high-necked, mermaid-style silhouette and hand-appliquéd Italian lace. The bride told Vogue that she wanted her wedding look to be a striking departure from her typical red carpet ensembles. Lauren said she drew inspiration from the high-necked wedding dress Sophia Loren wore to marry Cary Grant in the 1958 movie Houseboat. 'It went from 'I want a simple, sexy modern dress' to 'I want something that evokes a moment,' and where I am right now. I am a different person than I was five years ago,' she told the outlet. She noted that it would be the first formal dress she's worn that's so covered up across the chest. 'It is a departure from what people expect, from what I expect — but it's very much me," she explained. Shortly after the nuptials took place, Lauren shared the first photo of the wedding on Instagram: a shot of herself and Jeff beaming in a garden setting with their guests surrounding them. She captioned the post, "06/27/2025 ♥️," officially confirming her marriage. Jeff and Lauren celebrated their wedding with about 200 people, 70 of whom were family members, including a number of celebrities. The star-studded guest list included Khloé Kardashian, Kris Jenner, Kylie Jenner, Karlie Kloss, Tom Brady, Ivanka Trump, Tommy Hilfiger, Queen Rania of Jordan and Brooks Nader. A source told PEOPLE that the wedding ceremony commenced with a performance of 'Can't Help Falling in Love' by Elvis Presley, sung by Matteo Bocelli.

The wedding festivities kicked off on Thursday, June 27, with a welcome party, held in a closed cloister adjacent to the Madonna dell'Orto church. A source told PEOPLE that the couple and their guests dined on pizza cooked onsite by a famous Neapolitan chef, followed by pastries and lemon cakes for dessert. Ahead of saying "I do" to Jeff, Lauren told Vogue that she was looking forward to making it official with the Amazon founder. "I'm happy that I'm getting married and I get to spend my life with my best friend, someone who sees me, someone who adores me, someone who I adore. I am the luckiest woman on the planet," she said.

Leonardo DiCaprio Suffers Epic Disguise Fail at Bezos Wedding
Academy Award winner Leonardo DiCaprio is in attendance at the wedding of the year, but it appears he'd rather you didn't know that. The 50-year-old was photographed at Amazon billionaire Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding in Venice, Italy, alongside his Italian supermodel girlfriend Vittoria Ceretti, 27, who was not in disguise. In the photos, Leo, who is otherwise in black tie attire, sports a black Los Angeles Dodgers baseball cap pulled incredibly low, almost entirely covering his eyes. Unfortunately for Leo, a baseball cap is no match for eagle-eyed fans and paparazzi. Leonardo DiCaprio was spotted arriving at Venice airport ahead of Jeff Bezos' wedding (June 26, 2025).📸 More photos: — Leonardo DiCaprio Fan (@dicapriofans) June 27, 2025 The actor is no stranger to attempting to go incognito—he was photographed arriving in Venice for the wedding once again dressed in all-black, with a hoodie, baseball cap, and mask obscuring much of his face. Fans on social media were quick to roast Leo for his botched attempt at a disguise, with many wondering why exactly he was so eager to cover up. Several wondered if he was embarrassed to be spotted attending the wedding of such controversial figures as Bezos and Sánchez, particularly considering his track record as an environmental activist. One X user wrote, 'Why is Leonardo DiCaprio still pretending to be this Hollywood climate activist and then he goes to Jeff Bezos' wedding and is on a yacht every week. What a fake frau[d]ster,' while a fan on Instagram wrote, 'For someone who loves the environment I'm pretty shocked he was at this wedding.' Venice residents, who have been protesting the wedding for weeks, are upset at the potential for disruption in the already overwhelmed city, as well as the presence of Bezos himself. Last week, protesters unfurled signs over the Rialto Bridge that read, 'NO SPACE FOR BEZOS,' while another showed Bezos with a red X over his face. At another protest earlier this week, activists took over the Piazza San Marco with a sign that read, 'IF YOU CAN RENT VENICE FOR YOUR WEDDING YOU CAN PAY MORE TAX.' Venice has been struggling with the issue of overtourism for years, and city authorities have attempted to alleviate some of the burden by implementing a tourist tax, though critics have argued the tax is insufficient. DiCaprio has spent much of his career advocating for environmental causes as both an individual and on behalf of the Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation, which has supported more than 200 projects in 50 countries since 1998. He has also produced several documentary films about the climate crisis, including The 11th Hour and Before the Flood. The actor's commitment to environmental causes is what makes his attendance at the wedding so strange to some fans, considering both the wedding's environmental impact—on top of everything else, several guests arrived on private jets—and Bezos' own track record, which is murky at best. A 2022 report found that Amazon, the company Bezos founded in 1994 and of which he is still executive chairman, drastically undercounts its own carbon footprint. Other analyses have found that Amazon generated 599 million pounds of plastic packaging waste in 2020 alone, contributing significantly to pollution, particularly of the world's oceans. Other environmental activists have honed in on Bezos for the role he has played in accelerating climate change. In 2023, a group called Amazon Employees for Climate Justice published an open letter titled, 'Amazon is failing its own Climate Pledge,' ahead of an organized walkout. In it, the group criticized their employer for failing to meet the standards set by the Climate Pledge announced by Bezos in 2019. At the time, Bezos said of the decision to make the pledge, 'We're done being in the middle of the herd on this issue—we've decided to use our size and scale to make a difference.' Four years on from the pledge, Amazon's emissions had increased by 40 percent, and it had abandoned commitments like the Shipment Zero pledge to make half of all shipments net-zero carbon by 2030. In his acceptance speech at the Academy Awards for Best Actor for his role in The Revenant, DiCaprio told the crowd, 'Climate change is real, it is happening right now.' 'It is the most urgent threat facing our entire species and we need to work collectively together and stop procrastinating.'

The mystery of the paedophile who hired out Disneyland
When it emerged that last weekend a convicted paedophile had organised a fake wedding to a nine-year-old at Disneyland Paris, many people were perplexed. Who would do such a thing? How was it even possible? The BBC understands it was the latest bizarre stunt by Jacky Jhaj – a British man I have been investigating for two years. He first came to my attention after a tip off from a teenage girl came out of the blue in 2023. She was horrified that she had come face to face with a paedophile who she had been hired to fawn over. She was too terrified of him to go on the record - but I tracked down a number of aspiring actors who had also been directed to scream at Jhaj while he was parading down a red carpet, and reach out to try and touch him. In all, 200 children and young women had been recruited by reputable casting agencies to play Jhaj's fans at a fake film premiere in London's Leicester Square that year. Some were as young as six. Towards the end of the event someone recognised Jhaj - who had previously been found guilty of sexual activity with two 15-year-olds in 2016 and sent to prison. The fake red carpet was one of a litany of stunts he has organised since his release which often involve casting girls as his fans. All have been organised at great expense, while he was on the Sex Offenders Register and subject to restrictions on his activities. For the mock-wedding at Disneyland Paris a nine-year-old Ukrainian girl was flown in to play his bride. The theme park can be privately rented outside of its opening hours and actors had been booked at great cost to be there – one received £10,000. The BBC understands that Jacky Jhaj, 39, who is from west London, has now been charged by French authorities in connection with organising the event. Over the past two years I've set out to try and understand how he has been able to carry out these stunts and why there are not more stringent rules preventing them. Many have taken place at high profile British landmarks – including the British Museum, the Royal Exchange in London and the University of Oxford. They also typically involve young people being hired to act as his fans in elaborate productions. Videos of some of them were uploaded to a YouTube channel which was watched more than six million times and had 12 million subscribers. Many remained on YouTube for years until last September, when the BBC alerted Google, which owns the platform. A video on a separate channel showed him next to one of the victims he was convicted of sexual activity with – with her face anonymised. It had remained on YouTube for four years with more than a million views. Google told the BBC at the time that it takes users' safety seriously but offered no explanation as to how an account featuring a man with almost no profile or success had 12 million subscribers, or why the videos had not been previously removed. Clips on social media sites appear to cast Jhaj as a successful writer and singer and are often styled as music videos. Many are highly concerning - some feature him posing with young children and weapons. It is not clear if the guns are real or fake. Others revel in his infamy. In one, he is greeted by fans apparently celebrating his release from Wormwood Scrubs prison. I wanted to know how he had organised the stunts – and if he had received help. Over the past two years, I have spoken to videographers, production assistants and technicians who were hired for some of the events before they discovered Jhaj's real identity. One man repeatedly appears in videos they shared with me. We have been sent images and footage of him at three of the stunts by people who described him as assisting the choreographer hired for dance auditions, and apparently filming. At a different event last year, he was confronted by duped cast members who recognised Jhaj from our reports and showed him the online article. The cast members filmed him acknowledging that Jhaj is a convicted sex offender but he says he is his "friend" and is now "free". At this event Jhaj was filmed posing naked in front of a mocked-up BBC News lorry in London which had been set on fire. Jhaj had initially appeared there disguised by prosthetics – before he removed them and was identified as the man from our story. Preliminary findings from the French prosecutor also said that make-up artists had allegedly changed the organiser's facial features dramatically at the Disneyland event. How Jhaj funds his stunts - which involve extraordinary costs on venue hire, casts and props - is a mystery. One production hired a tank, while in another a mock police car was set on fire. The booking of Disneyland Paris alone would have cost more than €130,000 (£110,000), according to the French broadcaster BFMTV. I was also told that hiring the red carpet space that is the home of movie premieres in Leicester Square would have required tens of thousands of pounds. Jhaj was listed as a director of a business that was wound up in 2016 – but there is no other obvious source of money. I also wanted to know how he had been able to carry out these events while subject to a sexual harm prevention order. We have seen a copy of it. It lists ten restrictions on his activities – but does not appear to explicitly prohibit the stunts he had organised. The order restricts Jhaj from contacting his previous victims, entering public places for the use of children and deliberately contacting any girl under the age of 16. However, there is no blanket ban on hosting events with children under 16 if they are supervised – as was the case with the Leicester Square stunt, where some adults attended as chaperones. I also wanted to know who, if anyone, was responsible for monitoring convicted paedophiles. Following my first report, a police officer who helped monitor Jhaj rang me, asking for information on his movements. He said he was responsible for managing the whereabouts of dozens of offenders - and it was challenging work. The National Police Chiefs' Council advise that the minimum safe staffing levels at which paedophiles should be monitored is one officer to every 50 offenders. The Metropolitan Police's average offender management ratio was one officer to 40 offenders – well within the benchmark. I asked other forces what their ratios were and some never replied. But 10 out of 26 forces failed to meet this benchmark, according to Freedom of Information requests received last year. At one force, officers were responsible for monitoring 85 offenders each on average. Some forces defended their resourcing – arguing that these are advisory levels only and also dependent on risk assessments of offenders. But successfully managing 50 sex offenders is "impossible" according to Jonathan Taylor, a safeguarding expert and former child abuse investigator. "I feel so sorry for the officers", he says. "It's a poisoned chalice - one of the paedophiles will re-offend. This case also highlights concerns about a lack of safeguarding in entertainment and tech companies enabling these types of offenders." The BBC understands that Jhaj is currently detained in French custody. The local prosecutor there says the Ukrainian girl involved in Saturday's stunt had not been a victim of either physical or sexual violence and had not been forced to play the role of a bride. His statement also said Disneyland Paris had been "deceived" and that the organiser had used a fake Latvian ID to hire the venue. The BBC approached Disneyland Paris for comment - they did not respond. The Metropolitan Police said that a 39-year-old man is wanted by them for breaching restrictions placed on his activities, and is also separately being investigated for "any possible" fraud offences. Additional reporting by Alex Dackevych and Richard Irvine-Brown.
