Inside the test kitchen powering Coles' home brand-led profit surge
Four perfect scoops of vanilla bean ice cream are sitting in white ramekins, a numbered card for each. Michael Weldon takes one scoop at a time and considers its texture, taste and aroma. Then he picks one. The former MasterChef contestant now runs the test kitchen at Coles and is taking part in one of his own blind taste tests. Luckily, he picks the supermarket's brand as his favourite. A second tester considers the scoops – including from Aldi and premium brand Connoisseur – and lands on ice cream from Woolworths.

Stranger's offhand comment shows what's wrong with Australian culture
A Sydney woman was doing a classic coffee run with her sister in Bondi before a day of shopping the boutiques in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs. Melanie Quick and her sister Courtney both have a penchant for good style, but as they ordered their matchas and waited for them to arrive, a stranger made a comment to them that caught them off guard. They asked, 'Why are you so dressed up? Where are you going?' Ms Quick was wearing a cream quarter-zip sweater tucked into a slouchy silk maxi skirt and flats, while Courtney wore a faux fur coat and black jeans. While many might consider their outfits 'extra', by Aussie standards, where everyone seems to get around in activewear, it was no ballgown and heels. So it made her wonder, why does it feel so wrong to dress nicely in Australia these days? The 'overdressed' remark 'My mum always encouraged us to wear what makes us feel our best, and always shares stories about how stylish her own mother was, so I guess a sense of self-expression runs in our family,' Ms Quick told 'I always found so much joy in putting together an outfit, even if it's for something simple, like getting a coffee. I don't enjoy wearing activewear unless I'm working out or at home.' So when the stranger asked them that question, with a subtle air of judgment, she responded quite directly and refused to feel embarrassed. 'I just said we were here for coffee and offered no other explanation,' she said. Others agree we have a fashion issue down under After making a TikTok about the encounter, she was met with overwhelming support from others who thought Aussies were far too comfortable dressing down. One comment read: 'Australia is honestly one of the most poorly dressed countries … every other country I've travelled to, people dress to the 10s wherever they go but here we call it a 'day out in town' if it's more than a T-shirt and jeans'. Another noted: 'I found that when I was in Europe, genuinely no one batted an eye at my outfits, everyone was so stylish and put together, especially in Italy. But when I dress like this in Australia, all I get are stares and questions like 'Who are you dressing up for?' Ummm myself? We hate individuality here'. Is Tall Poppy Syndrome at play? Ms Quick believes this has to do with our laid-back, outdoor culture, where wearing athleisure is the unofficial uniform. According to a recent study, 78 per cent of Aussies say they wear activewear as casual wear when they're out and about. Around 40 per cent of people said they wore activewear most days, if not every day. But she also thinks something deeper is at play that contributes to people not wanting to appear as if they're trying too hard. 'When someone dresses a bit differently or is 'overdressed' – Tall Poppy Syndrome comes into play, which affects how we react to confidence and ambition,' she said. Tall Poppy Syndrome is an Australian term that describes the tendency of people to belittle or undermine those who stand out. 'Even something as small as dressing nicely can be seen as being attention-seeking,' she added. Perhaps this is a collective 'cultural cringe' According to Jacob Loaf, an Aussie fashion commentator, this phenomenon is part of our country's collective 'cultural cringe' towards people who take pride in their fashion sense. 'Australians fear dressing up,' he said, adding that this exists for men as well as women. 'When people even want to wear pants and nice shoes as opposed to a Gymshark tee and Kmart pants, it's frowned upon.' 'Why is hyper-casual clothing the societal norm?' he asked. Why people dress better overseas In fashion forums and Reddit communities, this topic is also a common subject of discussion. 'Why do we dress so casually here compared to Americans or the French?' someone asked in the r/AusFemaleFashion forum. Many comments mentioned our climate, citing our year-round warm weather as a reason why people choose less formal, more relaxed clothing. 'Coats, blazers, and jackets that can add polish to an outfit aren't needed much,' said one. Some also pointed out that we don't have many 'walkable' cities, which means people spend a lot of time, often on public transport, getting around, meaning they opt for more comfortable outfits. Another raised the point that it was to do with our limited access to upmarket clothing labels. 'Our mainstream fashion is very basic, and our niche brands can be over-the-top colourful – so if you want something nicer and elegant, it's next to impossible to find,' claimed one. Meanwhile, someone else claimed that it's because Aussies generally don't have many formal events to go to, and our lives revolve more around everyday activities. 'Embrace individual style' Despite all these discussions, Ms Quick says she isn't going to reconsider her fashion choices and will continue to dress in ways that make her feel confident. 'I think it's time we start to embrace individual style and celebrate people who want to express themselves through fashion,' she said. 'At the end of the day, what we wear is an extension of who we are, and I love seeing people feel confident and happy in their clothes. I truly think that deserves to be celebrated.'

School sparks uproar for telling student, 12, she couldn't wear Union Jack dress to diversity day
A British schoolgirl was sent home for wearing a Union Jack dress for 'diversity day', with one of her teachers saying it was inappropriate and offering her a secondhand school uniform to wear. Courtney Wright, 12, wore a Union Jack dress — similar to the famous dress worn by the Spice Girls' Geri Halliwell in the 1990s — to the Bilton School in Rugby, Warwickshire. Parents had earlier been told the diversity day was a chance to 'celebrate the rich cultural diversity within (the) school community ... students across all year groups will have the opportunity to take part in a variety of cultural activities'. Courtney had prepared a speech to celebrate all things British, which included tea, Shakespeare, fish and chips and the royal family. However, a teacher told her she couldn't wear the dress, offering her the preloved school uniform. Courtney refused, with her father Stuart Field, 47, called to pick her up from school. Field told UK's The Sun: 'Her head of year bizarrely said that if she had worn a suit of armour or a nurse's outfit, she probably would have been allowed. It's ridiculous. 'The irony is they were having a cultural diversity day and yet they singled out a group of people. She's a grade-A student and they have vilified her and punished her for being proud of being British.' The school later apologised to Courtney saying it offered its 'sincere and unreserved apologies' before adding it was 'learning from this experience'. On Thursday, Perth Lord Mayor Basil Zempilas and Sunshine Coast Mayor Rosanna Natoli both took aim at the school while discussing the incident during Hot Topics on Sunrise. 'I struggle with this,' Zempilas said. 'I'm trying to work out what I think and then I put myself in this position: 'What if somebody did exactly the same thing here in Australia but wore the Australian flag as their outfit?' 'I don't think we'd be comfortable with that kid being told what the kid in the UK was told. 'The United Kingdom is a place of diverse communities. People from all over the world, a lot like Australia, who have settled there for a new life and a new start. 'I'm against this. I think you should be able to celebrate your own country on diversity day.' Natoli agreed. 'For a teenage girl, it would be mortifying to have to put on someone else's uniform,' Natoli said. 'Inclusion is supposed to mean everybody. So that is whether or not you associate with British culture ... (it's about) recognising diversity across the board. 'So, I think what the school has done here is missed an opportunity to reflect right across the board what students and children and young people, and other people, all people, are feeling here which is their association to being British. 'I think it was a lost opportunity and sad for that particular student.'
