CANDICE Looks to '70s Cinema and Bush Traditions for FW25
CANDICEhas never been a brand to play it safe. For Fall/Winter 2025, the label dives into uncharted terrain with 'Frog Dreamin,' a collection that feels both ruggedly local and strikingly global.
Drawing from Australia's untamed landscapes and the subcultures that pulse within them, 'Frog Dreaming' channels an aesthetic of fluid creativity and layered storytelling. The collection nods to a forgotten era of Australian cinema in the '70s and '80s, weaving nostalgic graphic references into garments that celebrate bush life, athletic codes and utilitarian traditions.
Silhouettes lean into function, such as workwear staples reinterpreted through softened lines, trekking gear reimagined with a contemporary ease and vintage washes that evoke the rawness of the terrain. Accessories underscore the narrative, grounding the collection in CANDICE's ongoing dialogue between memory, landscape and the fluid identities of its wearers.
The result is a wardrobe that feels lived-in yet cinematic, bridging past and present. As with every CANDICE season, the unexpected becomes the point where pieces designed to slip between worlds, made for those who prefer their fashion untethered.
'Frog Dreaming' will release globally on August 27 viaCANDICE's website.

Fashion influencer issues warning after almost getting ‘decapitated' by her outfit
An Australian fashion influencer and dress hire business owner said she was nearly 'decapitated' after a wardrobe mishap at an event. Eli Moulton attended the launch of a new car dealership in Adelaide on Sunday, wearing a black tube dress with a flowing sheer black scarf. However, as she was leaving, her accessory got caught under her car, forcibly yanking at her neck as she drove off. Sharing outfit videos from the night on her Instagram, the mom-of-two joked that the dress had her in a 'chokehold,' which is slang for being obsessed with something. In the clips that followed, she showed how it 'literally' did have a chokehold on her, leaving a thick red burn mark around her neck. 'A reminder for the ladies: REMOVE your neck scarves (sic) before entering or operating any heavy machinery! Nearly decapitated myself getting the scarf tangled underneath the car on the way home,' she wrote in the caption. On Tuesday, Moulton, who gave birth to her newborn just a few weeks ago, took to her Instagram Story to share an update with her followers, assuring them she was in good spirits. 3 Australian influencer Eli Moulton shared how she was 'nearly decapitated' by her dress at an event. eli__moulton / Instagram 3 Molton's scarf got caught under her car and yanked her neck. eli__moulton / Instagram 'Not even the Paris filter can help me.

Famously, American dancer Isadora Duncan died in 1927 when the long scarf she was wearing became entangled in the wheel of the open-air car she was in. The car accelerated at full speed, violently pulling her from the vehicle and throwing her onto the street and breaking her neck. She was taken to the hospital but was pronounced dead on arrival. The 'Isadora' style of scarf was named after her and is known for its flowing, free-flowing style, often made from luxurious materials like cashmere, silk, or wool.

Gavin Newsom Trolls JD Vance With Viral Video: 'Go Get ‘Em JD!'
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) trolled Vice President JD Vance over his reported attendance at a White House peace summit on Ukraine, appearing to mock Vance's role as the president's attack dog. In recent months, the governor has adopted an aggressive social media strategy as he's become one of the most prominent Democratic Party critics of the Trump administration. Newsom, seen by many as a potential presidential candidate in 2028, and his press team have taken to mimicking Trump's social media writing style, in particular the all-caps screeds and nicknames that have become familiar tropes. They have now turned their attention to Vance, who is also seen as a presidential hopeful for the next general election. On Monday, the Democrat responded to reports that Vance would be in the Oval Office when Trump meets Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy later in the day. In February, Vance was a key player during the notorious Trump-Zelenskyy clash at the White House, with the U.S. vice president berating Ukraine's president for being 'disrespectful' and not 'thanking the president.' Vance also laughed when a reporter asked the wartime leader why he was not wearing a suit. In a message on X, formerly Twitter, Newsom shared a post that teed up 'another Oval Office showdown,' with the governor adding a video of Vance running awkwardly at the Disneyland theme park in California this summer with the caption: 'Go get 'em JD!' Related: Vance told the 'The Katie Miller Podcast' last week that the video caught him playing a game of 'Ogre' with his children where 'I don't run full speed.' 'And so I was playing 'Ogre' and that was what caused the great scandal of how I ran it,' Vance told Miller, who is the wife of Trump adviser Stephen Miller. Newsom's team also got in on the act Monday, posting an altered picture of Vance's face on the body of Australian breakdancer Rachael 'Raygun' Gunn, who went viral during last year's Olympics for her less-than-impressive technique. The image, which includes the words 'J.D. Dance,' is below a derisory caption that reads: 'A highly anticipated 'showdown.'' Newsom aides recently dubbed the vice president 'Just Dance' Vance. The governor's office premiered the nomenclature last week when commenting on the Trump administration's attempts to redraw state electoral maps ahead of next year's midterms. 'NOT EVEN JD 'JUST DANCE' VANCE CAN SAVE TRUMP FROM THE DISASTROUS MAPS 'WAR' HE HAS STARTED,' Newsom's office wrote on X, copying Trump's all-caps style. Related...

North Shore Season 2: Release date speculation, cast and plot details – Everything we know so far
By Aman Shukla Published on August 19, 2025, 20:00 IST Last updated August 19, 2025, 12:47 IST Fans of North Shore, the gripping Australian crime thriller, can't stop buzzing about the possibility of a second season. With its intense murder mystery, stunning Sydney Harbour backdrop, and a stellar cast led by Joanne Froggatt and John Bradley, the show hooked viewers from the start. After wrapping up its first season in 2023, the big question on everyone's mind is: what's next for North Shore? Here's a deep dive into all the details about Season 2. Release Date Speculation for North Shore Season 2 Since there's no official word on renewal, pinning down a release date for Season 2 is tricky. If filming did start in late 2023 as rumored, production timelines for similar shows suggest a potential premiere in late 2025 or early 2026. For context, Season 1 dropped on Network 10 in May 2023 and hit ITVX in the UK in December 2024, with Netflix picking it up in June 2025. If renewed, expect a similar rollout, possibly on Network 10, Paramount+, ITVX, or Netflix. Fans should keep an eye on the official North Shore page on Paramount+ or Network 10 for the latest updates. Until then, late 2025 feels like a reasonable guess, but nothing's set in stone. Who's in the Cast for North Shore Season 2? Assuming Season 2 gets the green light, the core cast is likely to return, given their pivotal roles in the first season's success. Here's who to expect based on Season 1's lineup: Joanne Froggatt as Abigail Crawford: The UK Trade Minister dealing with the tragic loss of her daughter Sophie. Froggatt, known for Downton Abbey and Liar, brings emotional depth that could carry over into new storylines. John Bradley as D.S. Max Drummond: The British detective whose chemistry with his Australian counterpart stole the show. Bradley, a Game of Thrones alum, shines as the sharp yet relatable cop. Kirsty Sturgess as D.S. Meg Driscoll: The Aussie detective clashing with Max while unraveling the case. Her dynamic with Bradley is a fan favorite. Dan Spielman as Simon Chalcott: Abigail's husband, whose arc could tie into lingering secrets from Season 1. Rob Carlton as Lloyd Macklin: The shady businessman with loose ends that could fuel a new season. Matt Passmore as Greg Hardy: The opposition leader whose political ties might spark fresh drama. Rhys Muldoon as D.C.I. Andrew Newell: A key figure in the investigation, likely to return for more. Supporting players like Claire Lovering (Tori), Chris Alosio, and others could also pop up, depending on the plot. New faces might join if the story introduces a fresh case, but no casting rumors have surfaced yet. The ensemble's chemistry, praised across reviews, makes their return a safe bet. What to Expect in North Shore Season 2? Season 1 wrapped up the murder of Sophie, Abigail's daughter, with a jaw-dropping twist that left viewers reeling. While the main case closed, loose threads and character dynamics set the stage for more. Here's what the plot might explore, based on hints from Season 1 and fan speculation: A New Case for Max and Meg : The British-Aussie duo could tackle another Sydney-based murder, possibly linked to international politics or shady deals. Their clashing styles and growing bond would keep the banter alive. Unresolved Threads : Season 1 dropped clues about Lloyd Macklin's shady dealings and a mysterious caller tipping off Max and Abigail. These could unravel into a bigger conspiracy. Personal Stakes : Abigail's grief and Max's strained relationship with his partner Anna could deepen, adding emotional weight to a new investigation. Sydney's Elite Under Fire: The show loves exposing the dark side of the city's high society. Expect more scandals, power plays, and secrets in the 'big end of town.' Creator Mike Bullen, known for Cold Feet , has a knack for blending grit with heart, so any new season would likely balance thrilling crime with character-driven drama. No official plot details exist yet, but fans are eager for another twist-filled ride. Ahmedabad Plane Crash Aman Shukla is a post-graduate in mass communication .
