Erling Haaland and his stunning girlfriend Isabel Haugseng look smitten as they attend Dolce & Gabbana show in Rome
Erling Haaland and his stunning girlfriend Isabel Haugseng looked smitten as they arrived at the Dolce & Gabbana Alta Sartoria show in Rome, Italy on Tuesday. The loved-up couple wore matching grey ensembles and held hands while walking into the event at Castel Sant'Angelo. The Manchester City forward, 24, was all smiles as he enjoyed his summer break on their romantic getaway. Fellow footballer and mother-of-one Isabel, 21, put on a very glamorous display in a dazzling sequin mesh dress. Erling has been an ambassador for the Dolce & Gabbana since 2023, after striking an endorsement deal up to £2million with the Italian brand. The footballer has been seen wearing the brand's clothes across his social media platforms. Erling has been looking to unwind following Man City's gruelling 2024-25 season, which came to an end just two weeks ago. Last week, the couple were spotted in Ibiza, with the couple on a yacht alongside Isabel's mother and their child, who was born last December. The couple have been very private with their child and they are yet to publicly announce its gender or name. Isabel is believed to have met Erling at the youth academy at Bryne, who they both played for. They started dating when he was at Borussia Dortmund, with Isabel making frequent trips to visit him. Despite a quiet private life and no social media presence, Isabel has been increasingly seen in the public eye during Erling's time at City, celebrating with him during their trophy successes. The 21-year-old wasn't present in the US for the Club World Cup and was rather cheering on Erling from home as he scored three goals in four games. The Norwegian international had been unable to help Pep Guardiola's side avoid an embarrassing exit at the hands of Saudi Arabian team Al-Hilal in the Club World Cup round of 16. Erling scored in the clash, but was unable to help Pep Guardiola's side progress in the highly lucrative competition in the USA, eventually won by Chelsea. Elsewhere, the opportunity for Erling to get some extra rest rather than continue in the latter stages of the tournament may be welcomed by Guardiola given he previously expressed his concerns over the impact the summer schedule could have on City's upcoming season. Erling is among the Man City stars now embracing their time off before they have to return to pre-season training. Man City currently only have one pre-season match scheduled ahead of the new season, with Guardiola's side scheduled to face Palmero on August 9. The match will take place a week before the Man City begin their Premier League campaign away to Wolves.

Pip Edwards stuns locals in Rome as she lets her underwear hang out in a see-through skirt during Euro trip after saying goodbye to her son
Pip Edwards is letting it all hang out in Italy as she drinks to her first days of freedom from solo parenting after seeing her teenage son off to university in the US. 'Let the holidays begin,' Pip captioned a series of flirty selfies shared to her Stories on Wednesday. The Ksubi creative director, 45, flaunted her fit figure in a sheer pink maxi skirt and a pair of nude underwear pulled up over her hips, with the label exposed, as she took to the streets of Rome. Pip dressed to turn heads, pairing the $140 Venroy low-rise skirt with a cropped $350 Clea fringe top to expose her taut midriff. The P.E Nation co-founder and two of her pals ventured to Bar San Calisto in search of refreshments as temperatures in the Italian capital soared to 35°C . From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop. Pip finished her eye-popping look with a pair of bedazzled Miu Miu ballet flats and a slouchy black Loewe purse. She literally let her hair down for the occasion, foregoing her signature blonde bun for a loose and wavy hairstyle dictated by the European summer humidity. Bar San Calisto is known for its cheap drinks and committed clientele that is a mix of artists, lifelong Romans, college students, and tourists. Pip's photos show the packed crowd at Piazza San Calisto stopping in to enjoy the refreshments and live music. The completely sheer look is one Pip has been rocking for the past 18 months — since she re-launched, and then departed, P.E Nation after debuting a new line of bum-and-bra-baring designs for the ultra-fit. The Sydney socialite's holiday comes three days after she bid farewell to her son Justice, 18, in San Francisco, California. 'Too many memories to share! You have been by my side from the minute you were born 18 years ago, right up until now, where I'm about to leave you in San Francisco,' Pip penned in a lengthy tribute post. 'As a parent, we give our children roots grounded in family, love and values, and we give them wings with the wind beneath them, so they can soar through life and navigate their own way,' she wrote alongside a carousel of pictures taken with her son. Pip shared a collection of recent photos of her teenager as she wished him well. 'There will always be an invisible umbilical cord between us Justice - an intense connection and true love that runs blood deep and life long,' she continued. 'You have brought so much joy to me and everyone around you and to whoever meets you. 'It's going to bring me the greatest joy to watch you live out your basketball dreams.' 'Get out there my love, go after everything in front of you, it's all yours to take! This departure forward into your adult life has been one of the most brutal yet brilliant experiences ever!! Loving you, raising you, and learning from you is my greatest inspiration. You are the GOAT.' Pip shares Justice with her ex and Ksubi co-founder, Dan Single. In a recent sit-down with Body & Soul, the single mother spoke about having a new lease on life now that her son has flown the coop. 'I'm proud I've managed to facilitate my dreams and his dreams at the same time,' she said. 'It's taken a lot of grind, perseverance, resilience, energy and excitement. To survive, I've had to make compromises, but now I don't have to compromise anymore.'

Ciao bella — how to dress for a Roman holiday
I know it's the French that we Brits are supposed to get excited about, style-wise, and indeed I did summon up some enthusiasm on these very pages last week. But for me it's all about the Italians. It's always about the Italians. The so-called tomato girl summer that took over social media a couple of years ago — a telling conflation of food and fashion — is still alive and kicking. Although, what with the temperatures and my limited skill set when it comes to dealing with them, mine is thus far proving more of a passata girl summer. Food. Fashion. It's encapsulated by one Miuccia Prada, who, unlike her austerely clad French counterparts, will present herself at the end of a catwalk show in head-to-toe red satin, and who — just in case that isn't enough for you — also owns a cake shop. I am in Rome as I write, for Dolce & Gabbana's Alta Moda show, which I review here. The city is as ridiculously ravishing as ever, but then so are the Romans. Sure, it can be tricky to see them, obscured as they tend to be in the summer months by several dozen burnt and be-bumbagged foreigners. But when you do … • Read more fashion advice and style inspiration from our experts What they channel in their wardrobes might be called joie de vivre if it weren't for the fact that this is the wrong language, so I will refer to it instead as sprezzatura. The Italians love colour and pattern, embracing it in such a way as to look classy rather than as if they are angling for an Instagram showing. JJ Martin, a Milan-based American who runs a kaleidoscopic label called La DoubleJ, goes as far as to call them 'geniuses. They just inherently understand tasteful arrangements of pattern and colour. It's as if they have a special DNA strand that embeds style in the bloodstream.' Here's what makes up the Italian summer uniform. This is a different species to the floral numbers that we tend to turn to. Forget Mapp and Lucia. Think Monica and Sophia. (Bellucci and Loren, on the off-chance that this needs further clarification.) It's not about the village fête. It's about drinks on a terrace somewhere on the Amalfi coast. Eschew ditzy prints. What you want is a ritzy print, one that's bold and very possibly geometric. You might also factor in the idea of an unwaisted style, the better to come over suitably operatic. And also, handily, to enjoy that second helping of pasta. La DoubleJ's signature swing maxi — in a hefty silk twill, with T-shirt sleeves — is the best around in terms of ever-after quality and print options (£770, At a less hair-raising price point there's Boden's Maya maxi (£120, and New Look's fruit-print wide-strap midi (£37.99, No, not to sleep in. The Italians don't wear PJs in bed. (See Bellucci, Monica, above.) They wear them to add a boudoir-adjacent frisson to the state of being fully conscious. Dolce & Gabbana has turned the day-pyjama genre into an art form, although suffice to say that if you have to ask the price you can't afford them. My more real-world favourites are a jazzy print linen pair from Karen Millen, with the option to go for shorts as well as trousers (£111.20 for the shirt, £119.20 for the trousers, £103.20 for the shorts, Bellissima. • The new must-have summer trousers (you probably already own a pair) It's got to the point in Rome this week where I am almost wondering whether there is some kind of municipal diktat prohibiting any sunglasses that couldn't also serve as welding goggles. & Other Stories' cool-girl tortoiseshell aviators would fit right in here (£32, AllSaints' giant squared-off cat's eyes, in black or a paler take on tortoiseshell that it calls (ahem) snow leopard, are more straightforwardly chic (£125, It might be a top, it might be a dress, but it's any self-respecting Italiana's favourite way to sizzle come summer. House of CB's Adabella, in a shade it calls Italian tomato, is a particular cracker (£179, The bandeau style from Nobody's Child — I like the giant polka dot — would also do the job (£99, To quote Loren in Houseboat, 'Bing! Bang! Bong!' The originals are so minimally be-strapped and soled as barely to class as footwear, and would ideally be purchased from the famous Canfora on Capri itself (from £159, However, there are some great iterations on the high street. Free People's are almost as pared-back, in a range of colours (£88, while Nobody's Child has a brown version with a more pavement-ready sole (£115, Italians got on to these for their youth-bestowing magic long before we did. Me+Em's white turn-ups would do nicely (£136.50, reduced from £195, as would Sézane's black and cream check (£125, and — if you are up for more volume — Albaray's leopard culottes (£79, Wait and See Milano — a veritable jewel box of a boutique — has some red and white floral beauts too (€283, reduced from €403, One of the ways in which Italian women signal the arrival of summer — not that here, in my experience, it normally needs much signalling — is by putting away their usual leather handbag, which will be an expensive investment piece, for a more fun wicker or raffia style. I always look for a lined interior, so that it works in the city as well as by the sea. For a neat tote, try Bloom & Bay's Kiara (£44.95, but for one that really thinks like a handbag, complete with leather flap and crossbody strap, try Wicker Wings (£250, I am going to finish on what is perhaps my favourite aspect of Italian style: how they dress up even the simplest ensemble with a knockout piece (or two) of costume jewellery. My favourite hunting grounds at home include the vintage offerings at Felt, Eclectica and Susan Caplan. Mango also knows how to make a dolce vita-appropriate statement, to wit its chunky resin bead necklace in shades of amber and brown (£45.99,
