Dua — in a sheer blue gown and with a red bag — was joined at the bash by models including Rosie Huntington-Whiteley.

The singer was on a break from her Radical Optimism tour and recently shared her gruelling fitness and diet regime ahead of the shows.

The seven-time Brit Award winner chatted with Nick Grimshaw and Angela Hartnett on the latest episode of their podcast Dish From Waitrose earlier this month.

Nick asked Dua: “What is life like for your now? Are you like ‘I’m an athlete, I’m in the zone’?”

“One thousand per cent,” Dua replied.

“It’s like rehearsals, no drinking, working out, just back-to-back preparing for all the shows to come,” the 28-year-old said.

“Also, I haven’t done a proper tour show for a year so I’ve got to get my stamina back up before I go into festivals.” 

This involves “running, dancing, singing, all at the same time, to make sure I can hack it once the adrenaline hits as well”, the singer explained.

Dua said she belts out her songs during rehearsal to get used to signing and dancing at the same time.

“I’ve got to make sure that while we’re doing new dance moves that a certain move isn’t gonna make my voice shake,” she added.

Angelica Maria Coiscou shared her tips exclusively with The U.S. Sun, giving hope for chesty fashion.

BUSTY BUYS

She described having a bigger bust having the potential to make bra shopping more difficult than the average person.

“Aside from how much more expensive it is in comparison to the average bra; [there’s] the inconsistent bra sizes that vary per brand,” she said.

“My biggest tip is investing in a tape measure, because no bra is made equal.

“You may be one size in a certain brand but a larger or smaller size in another and it’ll drive you crazy.

“So always size yourself and compare it to that brand chart for a more accurate smoother buying process.”

ANGELICA’S SECRET

Coiscou also advised stepping out of the brand loyalty comfort zone and trying on something new for size.

“I’ve found really good gems outside of name brand bras for good deals.” she said.

“More expensive doesn’t always mean better.”

She added that shopping for a bigger boob size doesn’t having to break the bank with designer duds.

“I haven’t purchased a large name brand bra in years,” she said.

“I’m sorry but I cannot consistently pay $50 to $80 on a single bra when I’ve found amazing supportive bras elsewhere.

“Tiktok Shop, Amazon, and even Walmart have been my go to for stylish, fun and cute bras that are not just black beige and white.”

BRA-FREE STYLING

She said that years of curating her brassieres led her to formulate must-know tips for securing the girls.

“I’ve picked up some helpful large chest friendly hacks over the years that — although out of the norm — work when trying to fit into unsupportive tops like bandeaus, corsets, deep v-cuts, or bustiers,” she said

“Tuck those bad boys in and use boob tape. Sometimes you might have to throw in a strapless bra into the equation.

“I’ve learned to just mould my boobs and secure them for the sake of a look.

“And please don’t forget pasties or you will regret it.”

COMPLETELY COMMANDO

She even included advice allowing fuller chested women to go completely without a brassiere or boob tape.

“When I want to show a little boob action, but want to go braless I tend to look for tops that have enough fabric to cover the goods, but size down.

“I size down so it fits tight around my boob area to act as support and it’s worked perfectly.”

SHE’S GOT YOUR BACK

Coiscou also recommended that busty beauties don’t neglect their skincare on their chest and décolleté.

“Lastly we tend to not nourish our skin in our chest area,” she said.

“Body butters and body oils have been my go to for years and I do see a difference in my skin’s elasticity.

“It helps keep the skin healthier by replenishing it and you’ll look and smell amazing, too.

“To all my large-chested people — I see you and hear you, but more importantly I know your back hurts, too.”

Former beauty queen Kendall, 29, was the first girl to be evicted from the villa in her series of Love Island, after she was dumped by Adam Collard.

The Miss England finalist has since found happiness with new beau and footballer Andrew Hughes, who she headed to the Caribbean with last week.

The brunette beauty took to Instagram to share her latest sun-soaked selfie which saw her relaxing beside her resort’s idyllic bar.

Kendall upped the ante by working her hair off her face in a sleek style and sported minimal make-up.

Griner was outspoken for social justice in 2020 and didn’t take the court during the pregame anthem. But nearly a year behind bars in Russia changed her.

“I was literally in a cage and could not stand the way I wanted to,” she said. “Just being able to hear my national anthem and see my flag, I definitely want to stand.”

Griner had 18 points, six rebounds and four blocked shots Friday night for the Phoenix Mercury in a 94-71 loss to the Los Angeles Sparks.

“Not good enough, didn’t get the dub,” said Griner, who nevertheless couldn’t be down in defeat.

“I appreciate everything a little bit more, all of the small moments, like, ‘Oh, I’m so tired I don’t want to go to practice today,’ that has changed, honestly,” she said. “Tomorrow is not guaranteed, you don’t know what it’s going to look like. I feel a lot older somehow, too.”

The 32-year-old center’s immediate goal is to play an entire game by the All-Star break in mid-July. She played 25 minutes Friday.

“I hope to be exactly where I want to be,” Griner said. “Just getting back to how I was before all this happened.”

Griner made an immediate impact against the Sparks. She fired a pass to Moriah Jefferson, who hit a 3-pointer for Phoenix’s first basket. Griner grabbed a couple of rebounds and scored twice in helping the Mercury to an early lead.

“How good did she just look? Unbelievable,” WNBA commissioner Cathy Engelbert told reporters at halftime.

For the first time since last season, Phoenix coach Vanessa Nygaard opened her pregame comments without announcing how many days Griner had been jailed. Griner has been free since December when she was part of a high-profile prisoner swap.

“Until the day we got the news in the morning that she was on her way home, no one thought that it was going to happen,” Nygaard said. “We did our jobs probably with less joy than professional athletes do. It was heavy every day.”

Not anymore.

“Today is a day of joy,” Nygaard said. “An amazing, amazing thing has happened.”

Griner and the Mercury were greeted with a standing ovation when they came on court for pregame warmups, although the biggest cheers were reserved for the Sparks.

“Just taking it in but staying focused because at the end of the day I’m at work,” Griner said. “Can’t get caught up in the moment. Kind of feel it, but put it to the side and feel it a little bit later.”

Griner hugged Vice President Kamala Harris and first gentleman Doug Emhoff as they left the court after Harris was presented with a No. 49 Sparks jersey. Earlier, Harris posed for photos in the Mercury’s locker room.

“It was nice to be able to see her face-to-face and thank her for everything,” Griner said.

She patted her heart and applauded in return during a brief video welcoming her back to the WNBA.

“It was nice to be back on the court for a real game,” she said. “The love from the fans when we came out was amazing. I definitely feel it.”

Griner scored 10 points in 17 minutes in an exhibition loss to the Sparks last week. It was her first game action since she was arrested at a Moscow airport in February 2022 after Russian authorities said a search of her luggage revealed vape cartridges containing cannabis oil.

“We brought back this Black, gay woman from a Russian jail and America did that because they valued her and she’s a female athlete and they valued her,” Nygaard said.

“Just to be part of a group that values people at that level, it makes me very proud to be an American. Maybe there’s other people that that doesn’t make them proud, but for me, I see BG and I see hope and I see the future and I have young children and it makes me really hopeful about our country,” the coach said.

Fans arriving early to Crypto.com Arena wore T-shirts with Griner’s name and jersey number on them. The 6-foot-9 Griner stopped to photo-bomb a group of young girls posing courtside before the game.

Billie Jean King and wife Ilana Kloss, who are part-owners of the Sparks, were on hand for the opener, as was Magic Johnson, Pau Gasol, Byron Scott, Robert Horry, Los Angeles Lakers coach Darvin Ham and South Carolina women’s coach Dawn Staley.

Since her release, Griner has used her platform to advocate for other Americans being detained abroad. She was already an LGBTQ+ activist since publicly coming out in 2013.

“She stands for so many people, so many different kind of people who can be undervalued in our society,” Nygaard said. “She stands with pride and confidence and has never once has shied away from who she is.”

Griner announced in April that she is working with Bring Our Families Home, a campaign formed last year by the family members of American hostages and wrongful detainees held overseas. She said her team has been in contact with the family of Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich, who is being detained in Russia on espionage charges.

“She’s an amazing person on and off the court,” Phoenix teammate Jefferson said. “I think her energy just inspires everybody every single day to show up and be the best version of themselves.”

Last Friday, she was at it again, clad in a black string bikini top and a pair of centaur-inspired leather trousers with a plunging V-crotch. Fox took to Instagram later in the week to offer additional context: “There was one hook,” she said in a video posted to her stories, “and I had to put them on and then shave, like, around it.”

The ensemble, designed by Central Saint Martins graduate Liza Kearne, is the latest in a new genre of extremist fashion. Recent fashion weeks have touted super short hem-lines (a la Miu Miu’s era-defining micro-mini skirt), risque prints (see: the revival of the trompe l’oeil), and cut-out silhouettes. And Fox seems right at home in this space, leaning into trends that certainly won’t be for everyone. From the Alexander Wang “joots” (jean boots) she wore to a well-documented trip to the grocery store, to her bleached brows — regularly replaced with penciled-on, flapper-esque lines — the actor and influencer appears to construct her looks with provocation in mind, often taking cues from the BDSM community.

In a second post on this week’s look — and perhaps in an attempt to ward off critics — Fox sent out a classic sorry-not-sorry message: “I just wanna sincerely apologize,” she said to-camera, “for having figured out that there’s more to life than chasing an impossible beauty standard projected onto me by insecure celebrities for the ultimate goal of pleasing men.”

And while she may want to position herself as someone who defies convention, Fox has certainly enjoyed several moments of conventional fashion-world success, including landing herself a spot on the runway at both New York Fashion Week, where she modeled for LaQuan Smith, and at Patou’s off-schedule show at the recent Paris Haute Couture Week.

A certain soft serve ice cream has been making a big splash.  

The world’s first-ever oat milk ice cream shop has planted its roots in New York City — and business is booming.

Whipped – Urban Dessert Lab in Manhattan’s Lower East Side first opened in 2019, offering a full menu of unique soft serve flavors and ice cream sundae creations.

ot only are these creations aesthetically pleasing, but oat milk-based ice cream has proven itself publicly appealing as milk alternatives have become increasingly popular.

That’s according to Whipped general manager Hannah Keller.

The vegan and plant-based option resonates with customers, Keller told FOX Business in an interview.

“Our focus is on making sustainable food that’s good for the people and the planet,” she said.

he business was founded to keep those with food allergies in mind, Keller said, adding that many in the U.S. are lactose intolerant.

Indeed, “approximately 65% of the human population has a reduced ability to digest lactose after infancy,” notes Medlineplus.gov.

“Whether you are lactose intolerant, you have a nut allergy, you don’t like coconut — you can come to us,” said Keller. “We do our best to keep everyone safe no matter what kind of allergy you have.”

One frequent customer, Daychia Sledge, said she drives from Westchester County, New York, weekly just to get her oat milk ice cream fix.

“It’s the bomb,” she told FOX Business. “It’s hard for me to find anything vegan, especially [ice cream] that tastes good.”

Sledge, who was visiting Whipped for the fourth week in a row on April 13, said that she’s “on her way to total veganism” after experiencing allergy symptoms from dairy foods.

“It’s hard to find anything good,” she said. “So, to come here and get [vegan] ice cream and it’s good … It’s just delicious.” 

She added, “And I came here early just to get the strawberry crumble because it’s always gone by the time I get here.”

It is “very exciting” to have a hand in revolutionizing the ice cream industry, Keller said.

“It means a lot to be able to bring this new ice cream to people that they can really enjoy. They don’t have to worry about the consequences,” she added.

Demand for Whipped’s products is “very, very high,” especially as summer approaches, according to Keller.

“We end up with lines going all the way around the block,” she continued. “Whether you like dairy or don’t like dairy, you’ll love our ice cream.”

Other sectors of the food industry might also think about incorporating sustainability into their businesses to keep both the customer and the planet “happy and healthy,” Keller added.

Whipped – Urban Dessert Lab is expecting to open a second location this year in West Hollywood, California.

Whipped also ships nationally on Goldbelly.

Shields,” which debuts on April 3, 2023. The project — which takes its name from the 1978 film that marked her first big breakthrough — traces her early years in Hollywood and examines how the focus on her appearance impacted her later in life. “The entirety of my life, it was ‘she’s a pretty face’ over and over and over and over again — and that always just seared me,” says the model-actress in a trailer for the documentary. “I’m amazed that I survived any of it,” she later adds.

This includes more matchy-matchy bubblegum pink outfits worn by Margot Robbie, in the title role, and Ryan Gosling’s Ken as they sit in a convertible on their way to the real world. Robbie dons her chicest vacation look (her beret, tailored dress and side braid are “Emily in Paris” meets Barbiecore) while Gosling goes full wife-guy in a “B” logo jacket. “Did you bring your rollerblades?” Barbie asks.

“I literally go nowhere without them,” Ken replies, holding up a pair of highlighter-yellow skates seen in leaked photos last year.

The movie (distributed by Warner Bros. Pictures, which is owned by CNN’s parent company) hits theaters in July, and the new trailer hints at Gerwig’s dedication to Barbie world-building and style — right from the opening shot of Barbie’s feet slipping out of her shoes but retaining their signature high arch.

“Her taking her foot out of the heel only for it to still be in the Barbie foot shape… THAT IS CINEMA,” tweeted Luxx Noir London, a former “RuPaul’s Drag Race” contestant.

Barbie Land lore

This week’s trailer was accompanied by a series of a posters that sent viewers hunting for clues about which dolls will be brought to life. The franchise’s most dedicated fans may recognize newly unveiled characters, including Allan (Michael Cera), who appears to be Ken’s discontinued “buddy” from the 1960s, and Midge (Emerald Fennell), who is seemingly modeled on a pregnant doll of the same name that was pulled off Wal-Mart’s shelves in 2002 due to customer complaints.

Joining them is Issa Rae as a presidential Barbie, Dua Lipa as a mermaid Barbie and Kate McKinnon, who has the chopped hair, scrawled-on makeup and intense eyes of a doll who’s seen one too many things.

The movie’s costumes have meanwhile sparked excitement since last June, when on-set photos of Robbie and Gosling — who were spotted wearing cowgirl and cowboy outfits and neon rollerblading ensembles, complete with knee pads and visors — set the internet alight.

“We look like we’re laughing and having fun, but we’re dying on the inside — dying,” Robbie told Jimmy Fallon after the images went viral. “I was like, ‘This is the most humiliating moment of my life.'”

Plot details remain tightly under wraps, but Robbie has said that “Barbie” won’t be anything like what viewers expect.

“We like the things that feel a little left of center,” she told The Hollywood Reporter in 2020. “Something like Barbie where the IP, the name itself, people immediately have an idea of, ‘Oh, Margot is playing Barbie, I know what that is,’ but our goal is to be like, ‘Whatever you’re thinking, we’re going to give you something totally different — the thing you didn’t know you wanted.'”

While the 1980s were all about volume — padded shoulders, puffed jackets, big hair and an obsession with designer wear — style in the early 1990swas decidedly low maintenance.

The slip dress, one of the decade’s most enduring garments, is perhaps the most glaring example of this. Spaghetti straps held up barely-there silk dresses, swapping the frills of the ’80s for minimalist ease.

Weekends were about biker shorts, turtlenecks, high-waisted jeans and baggy, logo tees. Hair was scraped into scrunchies or left as flouncy, unstyled manes.

The ’90s also gave rise to celebrity supermodels, including Linda Evangelista who summed up the industry’s excesses at the start of the decade by saying she didn’t get out of bed “for less than $10,000 a day.”

Evangelista joined Naomi Campbell, Cindy Crawford and Christy Turlington for the finale of Versace’s Fall 1991 collection. They walked arm-in-arm down the runway, lip-syncing the lyrics to George Michael’s hit “Freedom! ’90” — the music video for which they had all starred in.

It was a very early-90s moment.

From glam to grunge

By the middle of the decade, however,glamazons had given way to a more relatable type of beauty. A new waif-like femininity emerged, best personified by Kate Moss.

Grunge was also taking over and in 1993, then 29-year-old Marc Jacobs put unstructured pieces on the catwalk in a Perry Ellis show that featured granny dresses, Doc Martens and plaid shirts.

He was wildly criticized and, ultimately, fired for it. But the collection became one of the decade’s most important turning points for fashion, not to mention his career.

Chanel’s Spring 1994 range also looked to the street, dressing models in skates and baggy boy-shorts accessorized with rapper’s chains, while Calv in Klein presented lingerie-layered pieces that were, as he told Vogue, about “the personal, about staying in and being alone, and not flaunting what you have on your back.”

As the decade progressed, fashion moved from functional to decisively feminine.

In his first show for Gucci, Tom Ford reinvented the Italian brand, flaunting velvet trousers and sexy satin shirts endorsed by Madonna at the 1995 MTV Video Music Awards.

In the late 1990s, Alexander McQueen bet on explicit provocation with a series of experimental shows, of which Spring 1997’s La Poupée (The Doll) was perhaps the wildest, featuring models in various metal restraints.

Meanwhile, for a generation of teens raised on MTV and the fictional lives of fellow adolescents — Beverly Hills, 90210 and Bel-Air, to name just a couple — fashion came to be defined as a mix of preppy garments (duster coats, plaid miniskirts, knee-high boots) and slouchy cardigans, ripped jeans and snapback hats.

Keds and Skechers were cool though, if you were into rap, Timberlands had to be your footwear of choice. Reebok Pumps were sneakerheads’ Holy Grail and combat boots the hallmark of Kurt Cobain-enamored kids.

By the mid-1990s, tracksuits started popping up everywhere (and would continue doing so well into the 2000s, in the form of Juicy Couture), attempting athleisure before athleisure was even a thing.

It girls and broody boys

Just like “Friends”‘ reruns, the list of celebrities that defined ’90s style — and its best fashion moments — is seemingly endless.

The sitcom itself providedquintessential examples of mid- and late-90s fashion, with Jennifer Aniston’s Rachel and her famed haircut leading the pack. Sarah Jessica Parker, both on and off HBO’s “Sex and the City,” Alicia Silverstone, as popular rich girl Cher Horowitz in “Clueless,” Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks also helped set our style standards.

The men, meanwhile, were broody — see Jared Leto, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp — and their disheveled looksembodiedcasual dressing, with a penchant for leather jackets, white tees and minimal tailoring.

Throughout the decade, anyone who was anyone made a case for easy elegance by sporting double-breasted blazers and waistcoats, or coordinated head-to-toe looks, which made even more of an impression when touted by couples (Gwyneth and Brad) and girl groups (TLC and Destiny’s Child).

As the decade drew to a close, celebrity fashion took a turn for the daring: hemlines got shorter, outfits flashier (Lil’ Kim owned the trend better than anyone else) and pants became increasingly low-rise. The 2000s were just around the corner, ready to take their stylistic toll on everybody.

’90s back, alright!

Today, the 1990s live on once more. Fashion’s proclivity for looking back has recently turned the decade into one of its more fruitful sources of inspiration, giving us a renewed appreciation for Champion sweatshirts, Birkenstocks and Nirvana tees.

On the runways, brands like Saint Laurent, Off-White, Gucci and Prabal Gurung have rediscovered the era’s biggest trends, from grunge to velvet, silky pastel slips and biker shorts. Vetements’ whole raison d’être revolves around ’90s aesthetics.

But the revival hasn’t stopped at the clothes. Nineties supermodels are again commanding runways, from Naomi closing Saint Laurent spring 2020 last September to Christy Turlington walking Marc Jacobs’ Fall 2019 show.

Last year, Justin Bieber and Hailey Baldwin did a pretty good job of recreating the sexy mood of those iconic Calvin Kleinads. Even “Friends” is planning a reunion.

For some reason, we feel a collective nostalgia that keeps drawing us back.

Maybe it’s because ’90s style was about putting on something fun and easy. Or maybe because there was something for everyone: sheer fabrics and way too much satin, tank tops, cargo shorts, capri pants, tiny sunglasses and double denim.

Right now, the simplicity sounds very appealing.

Emily made her big screen debut in the 2014 movie Gone Girl and she was also seen in 2015′s We Are Your Friends and 2018′s I Feel Pretty. She shot to fame in 2013 after appearing in the music video for Robin Thicke‘s “Blurred Lines.”

So, what happened?

“I didn’t feel like, ‘Oh, I’m an artist performing and this is my outlet.’ I felt like a piece of meat who people were judging, saying, ‘Does she have anything else other than her [breasts]?’” Emily said.

Emily hoped to become a “serious actress” after appearing in Gone Girl, but she eventually fired her agent, commercial rep, and manager by 2020.

“I didn’t trust them. I was like, ‘I can handle receiving phone calls. I’m gonna make these decisions. None of you have my best interest at heart. And you all hate women,’” she said.

Emily told the outlet that her last audition was for the Oscar-nominated movie Triangle of Sadness. She was up for the role that went to late model Charlbi Dean.
