The shoes Rebecca Harding has worn to death, and what she'll buy next
Any go-to jewellery? I've never been a huge jewellery person, but my engagement ring is now a staple. It's an emerald cut diamond set in platinum that Andy [Lee, her fiancé] designed. I also wear a Jaeger-LeCoultre 'Reverso' watch and an Oura smart ring.
Loading
Can you remember a favourite outfit you wore as a child? When I was four, I was obsessed with a little navy-blue check dress with red hearts on the skirt and puff sleeves.
What was your first fashion moment? Playing dress-ups in my grandma's wardrobe as a child. She travelled a lot and collected pieces from all over the world. My sister and I would play around with the silk headscarves, furs, Italian leather – it was a treasure trove.
And your worst fashion mistake? A few years ago, I wore a pair of Christian Louboutin 'So Kate' stilettos for a full-day event and lost feeling in my foot for about a month afterwards. I haven't worn them since. I tried to resell them, but I think everyone's got the memo.
What shoes do you wear most often? A pair of Hermès 'Chypre' shearling slides that have been worn to death. I can't repurchase them because they're always sold out.
What's on your wish list? Dries Van Noten '70s-style suede sneakers.
Is there something you would never wear? Never say never. I would've said skinny jeans, but they're making a comeback. I love the look of them with a tall, flat riding boot – I just haven't found the right pair yet.
Is there a current trend you like? I'm loving that boho is back – the paisley prints and floaty dresses. Chloe's Winter 2025 show was so beautiful, and we haven't really played in that sort of style for a few years.
Who's your favourite fashion icon? I'm loving Daisy Edgar-Jones' vibe. In fact, I was almost convinced to cut a fringe.
What do you wear on a typical working day? If I'm in the office it'll be a jean, oversized white shirt with a fun lacy bra underneath and 'Tabi' ballet flats.
What's your favourite off-duty, casual Sunday look? I'll be in a Skims tracksuit, walking our dog Henrietta and going for breakfast with Andy.

Lorenzo Musetti spared French Open disqualification after kicking ball into lines judge
Italy's Lorenzo Musetti reached his first semi-final at the French Open, and second at a grand slam, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2. The 23-year-old will face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz for a place in Sunday's final after the Spaniard beat Tommy Paul 6-0 6-1 6-4. The No.8 seed was lucky not to be disqualified after kicking a ball at a line judge, however. In the second set against Tiafoe, Musetti kicked the ball in frustration and it hit the female line judge, standing about three metres away, in the chest. Tiafoe looked stunned at the other end of the court and gestured towards the umpire, who eventually gave Musetti a code violation. There were echoes of Novak Djokovic being defaulted at the 2020 US Open after accidentally hitting a female line judge with a ball. Later, Tiafoe said: 'I mean, obviously he did that and nothing happened. I think that's comical, but it is what it is. 'Nothing happened, so there's nothing really to talk about. Obviously it's not consistent, so it is what it is.' Musetti did not let the incident affect him as he moved to victory in four sets. He is now 13-4 in his French Open career, and three of those losses came against an opponent ranked No.1 — Novak Djokovic twice, Alcaraz once. The only way he'll need to deal with the top-ranked man again in Paris is if it's his mate Jannik Sinner is standing across the net on Sunday with the trophy in the offing. Musetti is one of the rare top players using the single-handed backhand, a vintage shot often praised by tennis connoisseurs. 'We are Italian, we are elegant,' he joked afterwards. Musetti will meet Alcaraz, who steamrollered American No.12 seed Paul for the loss of five games in another one-sided night match. Paul's right thigh was heavily strapped and he was unable to produce his best tennis. 'I'm sorry you wanted to watch more tennis. I had to do my work,' Alcaraz told the Court Philippe-Chatrier crowd.

Musetti eases past Tiafoe to reach semi-finals
Italy's Lorenzo Musetti reached his first semi-final at the French Open, and second at a grand slam, by beating Frances Tiafoe 6-2 4-6 7-5 6-2 in the same stadium where he won a bronze medal at last year's Olympics. The 23-year-old No.8 seed will face defending champion Carlos Alcaraz or Tommy Paul on Friday for a place in Sunday's final. Tiafoe, the No.15 seed, reached Tuesday's quarter-final without dropping a single set. But he was not quite up to the task against Musetti, a semi-finalist at Wimbledon in 2024, and it showed right away. Tiafoe missed all eight first serves in his first service game and sent a backhand wide to give Musetti a break and a 2-0 lead. He looked up at his coach, David Witt — who's worked with Venus Williams and Jessica Pegula in the past — and complained about the wind. The deficit was 3-0 after just 13 minutes. By the time that set was over, 21 of Musetti's 30 points had arrived via mistakes by Tiafoe, nine forced and 12 unforced. Tiafoe's first break delivered a 2-1 lead in the second, and when he smacked a forehand winner to level the match at a set apiece, he let out a roar and shouted, "Let's go! Let's go!". During that set, Musetti was warned for unsportsmanlike conduct for kicking a tennis ball that inadvertently hit a linesperson. Unlike most top-level tennis tournaments, which rely on electronic line-calling, there are still humans on court at Roland Garros to decide whether shots land in or out. However, Musetti did not let the incident affect him as he moved to victory in four sets. He is now 13-4 in his French Open career, and three of those losses came against an opponent ranked No.1 — Novak Djokovic twice, Alcaraz once. The only way he'll need to deal with the top-ranked man again in Paris is if it's his pal Jannik Sinner standing across the net on Sunday with the trophy in the offing.
