Coco Gauff fronts newest New Balance x Miu Miu collaboration
The partnership between New Balance and Miu Miu continues with American tennis star Coco Gauff stepping into the spotlight as its newest muse.
Notably, Gauff will wear clothing and footwear by New Balance X Miu Miu both on court and off starting at her forthcoming tournaments in Rome (May 7 to 18), Berlin (June 14 to 22) and Cincinnati (August 5 to 28).
Gauff's on-court ensembles were all created with a performance first mindset with a colour-blocked design. For Rome, she'll sport a palette of navy and white accented with red. In Berlin, she'll don white and green with sky blue accents, and in Cincinnati, a crisp mix of white and royal blue with touches of red.
Off the court, the collection shifts to relaxed sophistication with co-branded technical silk hoodies and track pants in complementary colourways. Completing the offering is a selection of co-branded accessories.
At the heart of the collaboration are exclusive updates to Gauff's signature shoe, the Coco CG2, re-imagined by New Balance X Miu Miu. Off-duty, Gauff will wear new editions of the New Balance x Miu Miu 530 SL sneaker, rendered in leather and mesh.
To mark the occasion, Gauff will appear at a special Miu Miu Select event at the Miu Miu 57th Street flagship in New York City. The event will showcase the collaboration alongside Gauff's hand-picked favourites from the Miu Miu Fall/Winter 2025 runway collection.
The full New Balance x Miu Miu with Coco Gauff collection will be available to the public starting September 10th, exclusively at select Miu Miu stores worldwide and online.

Spain gears up for year-long celebration of surrealist Joan Miro
Miro, who died in 1983 aged 90, was a giant of the surrealist movement, known for his playful, abstract paintings with bright geometric forms and doodle-like calligraphic lines. The Joan Miro Foundation, which he established in a purpose-built modernist structure on top of a hill in Barcelona in 1975, now houses a vast collection of his canvases, sculptures and other works. The institution is planning a year-long series of events to mark the half-century, ranging from exhibitions and concerts to a sunrise visit to its hilltop building. "In these 50 years, we've gone from being an artist's dream to becoming a cultural reference point in Barcelona and around the world," said foundation director Marko Daniel. The foundation traces its roots back to the early 1970s, when Miro -- then living in the nearby island of Mallorca -- sought to reconnect with his native city by creating a centre for contemporary art studies. His close friend, architect Josep Lluis Sert, designed the distinctive white-concrete building nestled on Montjuic hill, overlooking Barcelona. The foundation opened quietly on June 10, 1975, at Miro's request to avoid an official ceremony during the final months of General Francisco Franco's dictatorship. A more celebratory inauguration followed a year later, after the dictator's death. The anniversary celebrations kick off on Wednesday with the opening of an exhibition of photos, press clippings and architectural plans which trace the institution's evolution over the years. The foundation will open its doors on Sunday at sunrise to allow visitors to experience the building bathed in the light of dawn. "Miro left us not only a building, a unique institution, and a remarkable collection, but also a way of seeing the world," said Daniel. US ties explored One of the highlights of the anniversary will be the opening in October of "Miro and the United States", an exhibition examining the surrealist artist's connections with America -- a relationship less documented than his ties to France. Miro visited the United States seven times between 1947 and 1968, and the show will feature works by American icons such as Louise Bourgeois, Jackson Pollock, and Mark Rothko alongside the Spanish artist's own pieces. After its Barcelona run, the show will travel to the Phillips Collection in Washington DC in March where it will remain on display until July 2026. "This will become the most important exhibition on Miro ever held in the United States," said the foundation's director of artistic programming, Ana Ara. Next year the foundation will carry out a major reorganisation of its permanent collection, with more interpretive material added to help visitors understand how the artist conceived each piece. "We want to place the visitor right in the moment when Miro was creating these works," Ara said. Miro initially drew inspiration from artists such as Vincent van Gogh or Paul Cezanne before developing his own unique style. French writer Andre Breton, leader of the surrealism movement, once called Miro "the most surrealist of us all".

WorldPride March in Washington thumbs nose at Trump
"We just have to show this administration, that we are united, that we cannot be broken," said Amy Froelich, a 46-year-old artist and teacher, dressed in a rainbow-colored jumpsuit. "We need to be an ally to our brothers and sisters and our trans community," she said, seated next to her wife on green chairs near the starting line for a massive parade that marks the culmination of weeks of festivities. "All of our laws and any protections that we've been working so hard for (are) getting reversed." The WorldPride festival, a rotating global event advocating for LGBTQ equality worldwide, is being hosted in Washington this year -- a stone's throw from the White House and a president seemingly intent on rolling back rights hard-won by that community. Since returning to power in January, Donald Trump and his administration have slapped back LGBTQ rights gained in recent decades, in particular by members of the trans community. On his first day in office, Trump declared the federal government would recognize only two genders -- men and women -- and he has since targeted transgender people in a slew of other orders. Transgender American actress Laverne Cox, best known for her role in the series "Orange is the New Black," addressed the crowd at the parade starting line. "I knew I had to be here, surrounded by community, because you give me so much hope," she said. "I don't have any faith in our government... but I have faith in you." 'Big dark cloud' A few meters away, standing on the roof of the first bus in the parade, Yasmin Benoit, who came from Britain to show support for the US LGBT community, waved to the crowd. "We are literally on Trump's doorstep right now, and I'm sure he's not thrilled about all of this," the 28-year-old model and activist told AFP. Benoit said she had been detained by border police upon her arrival in the United States, but was finally allowed to enter. "It's definitely not the easiest place to come to, but I feel like that makes it a little more important to try," she said. Trump's policies are on the minds of many taking part in this year's festival. "It's been a big dark cloud since he was elected really," said Ginny Kinsey, sitting in the shade with a friend. Her wife, she said, had been working as a federal civil servant, but had been forced to change careers amid government funding cuts. "My wife just switched jobs in the government, and she made the decision to not be out at her new job, (as) she was in her previous job," she said. "People are just hiding again." 'Unfair' Trying to cool off with his fan under the blazing Washington sun, Bill George, 74, said he had come "to celebrate who we are." "We're as human as anybody else." The retiree, who came out in 1975, has taken part in a number of demonstrations for LGBTQ rights, as well as for human rights and civil rights over the years. "Conservatism is a wave, that is actually attacking us again," he told AFP, adding that he was furious with the Trump administration. "We will protest everything that he's doing that we think is unfair." © 2025 AFP

How an American mom is now part of my (French mom's) life
The more I think about it, the more I realize one of Instagram's unique features is the way it brings public figures into our private lives. Not just as celebrities gracing glossy magazine covers. Of course, I remember historic paparazzi moments: François Hollande on his scooter date, Jacques Chirac naked on the balcony of the Brégançon presidential summer residence, Kate Middleton sunbathing topless on another balcony, Britney Spears with her shaved head. Those were all glimpses into the private lives of public figures, obviously, but they were rare instances. And the private sphere was blown into the public by the media, in the traditionnal sense of the term, as an intermediary. Instagram people are a bit different. They really are with us. For one thing, they live inside our phones, so they're here all the time. For another, because of the way the Meta platform algorithm works, when you scroll through the app, you get an endless feed of close friends, strangers with whom you have much in common, ads and, of course, public figures. All these people are part of our daily lives, creating a strange mirror effect that erases the media as an intermediary: they reveal their own private and sometimes mundane moments as we sit in our living rooms, in bed or even in the bathroom. These recurring characters can quickly create a kind of artificial familiarity. This is how, the other night, while brushing my teeth, I told my partner, almost as if I were talking about a coworker or a friend, "Hey, Isabelle Bertolami is pregnant!" He asked how old her eldest was and where she would give birth. In short, a typical parent conversation, except for one small detail: neither of us has ever met Isabelle Bertolami. She's an American living in Aix-en-Provence with her husband and daughter, documenting her family life for her 242,000 followers. The American myth of the French mom Bertolami is what we call an Instagram American mom: mothers who praise the French parenting model, without too much concern with avoiding generalizations or ensuring accuracy. It's a way of feeding the American myth of the French mom: the mother who is both gentle and strict, attentive but not indulgent with a tyrannical child, fulfilled in her career, always impeccably dressed and manicured (she writes, typing with chipped nails).
