Noel Gallagher is definitely maybe a perfect fit for Levi's
W hen Noel Gallagher walked on stage in a classic Levi's western shirt to kick off Oasis's reunion tour this month, it wasn't just a nod to his 1990s roots. It was a powerful endorsement for the 172-year-old denim brand that has managed to stay relevant, stylish and commercially resilient through a turbulent era for fashion retail. Gallagher, a longtime fan of Levi's, had stopped in at the Haus of Strauss — the brand's discreet, VIP fitting space next to its London office — just before the tour kicked off, but the jeans maker hadn't expected him to wear the shirt on stage. 'The team was amazed to see him wear it,' Lucia Marcuzzo, Levi's managing director for Europe, tells The Times. 'It's really icon meets icon.'

Harper Beckham, 14, takes another leaf out of mum Victoria's beauty book by leading her own make-up tutorial
Harper Beckham took another leaf out of mum Victoria's fashion handbook on Sunday by sharing her very own make-up tutorial on social media. The fashion-conscious 14-year old emulated her famous mother by featuring in the latest beauty tutorial to appear on Victoria's Instagram platform. The former Spice Girl, 51, regularly encourages followers to 'get ready' with her in short social media videos, ostensibly created to promote her VB range of beauty products. But it was the youngest of her four children with former footballer David Beckham taking centre stage on Sunday, with Harper on hand to sample one of her latest products - the flush colour wash. Across a 34 second clip, the teenager shows viewers how to correctly apply the blood red serum - described as an 'innovative liquid blush' - before blowing them a farewell kiss. Victoria later shared similar content of herself applying the formula to her cheeks while dressed in a silk patterned bathrobe. Following the success of her eponymous womenswear label, Victoria launched her own beauty line, Victoria Beckham Beauty in 2019. But the designer previously admitted her daughter was banned from leaving the house wearing makeup, despite having an obvious passion for it. She admitted her daughter has been able to 'contour for quite some time', as she revealed she shares her passion for make-up. She told The Times: 'She's been able to do a full face and contour for quite some time. She's good at doing it very naturally.' She also revealed how their shared love of beauty means they love going shopping for cosmetics together. 'Going to Space NK is her favourite treat after school,' she said. 'If she does well in a test I'll take her to the one down the road — it's her favourite thing. She's obsessed.' Harper took her first bona fide step into the spotlight when she presented her mother with a Harper's Bazaar Women of the Year award in 2024, even making a speech about her 'amazing Mummy'. 'I'm so nervous,' she told the star-studded audience. 'Especially as tonight's a school night. Hopefully, this isn't going to get me in trouble.' Across a 34 second clip, the teenager shows viewers how to correctly apply the blood red serum - described as an 'innovative liquid blush' At her mother's perfume launch in New York she revealed her ambition for the future is to create an 'amazing' brand - just like her mother's eponymous fashion label. But Victoria will be eager to shield Harper from the pitfalls her eldest son Brooklyn experienced while trying to find his feet. However, according to PR expert Riley Gardiner from No Strings Public Relations, Harper is in a more profitable position than Kim ever was. 'What sets Harper apart is the network she's plugged into—not just in the celebrity world, but also in high fashion and serious business,' she said. 'This gives her an advantage over Kim Kardashian, who built her empire initially through reality TV and by riding the wave of controversy.'

Are Spain pacing themselves or sleepwalking to a deafening alarm call?
Afterwards, there was an awful lot of messing about. Probably more than you would expect after a briefly absorbing quarter-final whose outcome was never seriously in doubt. The Swiss players performed the world's slowest lap of honour. The Spanish players posed for a group photo, but it kept having to be retaken as more players arrived. OK, now one more with Aitana. Now one more with Irene. Now one with the staff. Now in portrait for the 'gram. Then the teams gave each other an honour guard off the pitch. At one point you would swear someone laid out some picnic blankets and Scotch eggs. Finally they left. And if there was a strangely ceremonial feel to the post-match perhaps it was because there was a strangely ceremonial feel to the match itself: more event than genuine contest, even as Switzerland held out for more than an hour, counted their blessings, fleetingly hoped. But there was always too much time on the clock. There were always Athenea del Castillo and Salma Paralluelo and Vicky López to come on. There was always one more attack to weather, one more shot to block, one more ricochet that had to bounce just right. Did the end vindicate Spain's leisurely means? Certainly they appeared a good deal more relaxed than you might have imagined for a team who hadn't qualified for the last four of this competition since 1997. And you can judge for yourself whether this is a source of reassurance or concern: a team imperiously pacing themselves, or one sleepwalking towards a deafening alarm call? For now, their supremacy has not been seriously challenged. France or Germany may have bolder ideas. You could even glimpse this languor in the buildup, a stark contrast with the fever and fervour of the host country. 'It is the biggest game ever, it's once in a lifetime,' said Switzerland coach Pia Sundhage. 'We'll have to be very alert,' said Spain's Irene Paredes. 'It's indescribable, it's incredible,' said Switzerland's Noelle Maritz. 'We know this is an important game,' said the Spain coach, Montse Tomé. The Wankdorf is exactly how you would imagine a Swiss football stadium to be: a perfectly rectangular metal box plonked out by the motorway and fitted with comfortable ergonomic seating. But it was ideal for its one real job: noise retention, and for 65 increasingly intriguing minutes Spain too were being boxed in, thwarted, contained, by a home side gradually daring to believe. Mariona Caldentey's early missed penalty set the tone, and though Switzerland were barely able to exit their own territory the game progressed with few other scares. Spain were simply not quick enough, not urgent enough, perhaps even a little dead behind the eyes. Too many aimless diagonals, too many speculative shots from the 20-yard range, and as half-time came and went a kind of simmering frustration, too. Caldentey ended the game without having created a single chance, Aitana Bonmatí just one. Sign up to Moving the Goalposts No topic is too small or too big for us to cover as we deliver a twice-weekly roundup of the wonderful world of women's football after newsletter promotion But hey, it was a good one. Bonmatí's sublime backheel for Del Castillo's goal was the touch of genius of which she is always capable, the reason you can never sleep on her, the reason you can never sleep on Spain. On the touchline Sundhage stood a little sadly in her trackie top and shorts, looking as ever like a pensioner on the regional news protesting against the closure of her local leisure centre. Tomé, by contrast, was wearing the sort of immaculately tailored suit you see on someone who is about to sell you a very expensive perfume. And the arrival of the bench backup was the cue for Spain to turn on the class. Soon it was two through Clàudia Pina, and although Alexia Putellas's late penalty miss kept the score down, it had long been evident that there would be no second Miracle of Bern. So ends Swiss Girl Summer 2025: a fiesta of packed stadiums and viral dances, last-minute goals and vivid dreams. Swiss television viewing figures on SRF have been staggering, the sort normally associated with Roger Federer in a Wimbledon final. There are new teenage stars to fete in Sydney Schertenleib and Noemi Ivelj and Iman Beney. And the progress of a proudly multicultural squad – half of whom have roots abroad – has captivated a nation bearing the same fraught relationship with immigration that you seem to find everywhere these days. So you can understand why they wanted to enjoy their moment. They lingered, they unfurled a thank-you banner to the fans, they beamed and waved, soaking up the last of this joy, the last of this shared energy. In many ways this was the easy part: the hard bit comes now, the tough and thorny and thankless work of actually building a sport in the foothills. The window of opportunity has closed for now. But with a little care and a little love, the light can still get in.
