R.SPORT's First Global Drop Fuses Tokyo Street Culture With Retro Sportswear
Summary
Melbourne-based collectiveR.SPORThas always done sportswear differently. Grounded in connection, team culture and the subtle intersection of performance and everyday life, foundersAnthony Puliattiand Jasper Pittard have taken that ethos global with their first international capsule: 'Taxi Cup, Tokyo.'
The collection pays tribute to the vibrant city that inspired it. On a quick trip to Tokyo, the R.SPORT team became fixated on a local detail often overlooked by visitors: the sea of taxis roaming neon-lit streets, each clad in its own colour palette, pattern and polish. That fascination translated into four key pieces that channel Tokyo's chaotic charm through a distinctly retro sportswear lens.
Expect oversized parachute track pants and ¾-length shorts, both featuring the understated gray-and-white checker tape seen on many of Tokyo's black taxis. Standouts include a patchwork football jersey blending four taxi-inspired patterns and a rugby polo nodding to Japan's signature clean design. Subtle touches, such as the Tokyo Team Crest, reference the J.LEAGUE's legacy of bold jersey culture, a detail sure to resonate with global football fans.

Mystics' Jade Melbourne chips tooth in bloody scene after catching elbow to face
The WNBA tooth fairy is on the way to Jade Melbourne. What made for a viral moment Thursday night involved the Mystics' guard and the Aces' Chelsea Gray. Melbourne was guarding Gray in the first quarter and as the six-time All-Star attempted to run around a screen toward the rim, Gray's elbow flew up in the air, brutally smacking Melbourne in the mouth. 4 Chelsea Gray elbows Jade Melbourne in the mouth on Thursday night, causing a bloody scene and a cracked tooth. X @cjzero 4 Jade Melbourne holds her hands over her mouth after getting hit hard by Chelsea Gray on Thursday night. 4 The bloody outcome. @georgiaamoore/Instagram Melbourne immediately held her hands to her mouth as the hit led to a swollen bloody lip and a cracked tooth. The 22-year-old Aussie was quickly led to the locker room and later returned to the bench. Gray was subsequently assessed a flagrant foul for the incident. Melbourne's teammate, Georgia Amoore, shared a photo after the game on her Instagram story. While Melbourne only lasted one minute the game, the Mystics ran away with a 94-83 road victory over the Aces thanks to a 21-point night from rookie guard Sonia Citron. It was Washington's third consecutive win and it puts them at .500 (8-8), and in sixth place in the WNBA standings. Melbourne is averaging 6.5 points on 40 percent shooting from the field across an average of 23.5 minutes per game.

The Princess Of Wales' Best Wimbledon Looks, As We Anticipate Her 2025 Appearances
The Princess of Wales never looks better (or more enthusiastic!) than during The Championships at Wimbledon. As patron of the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club since 2016, Kate Middleton has made her love of tennis known by turning up at the annual event year after year and usually a few times throughout the fortnight. She also saves her brightest, boldest colours for the tennis tournament, becoming a radiant presence in the Royal Box. British labels like Emilia Wickstead and Roksanda are amongst her favourites for the occasion, but so too is fashion-favourite Alessandra Rich. Her polka dot selections from the London-based Italian designer remain amongst the Princess' most well-lauded by fashion folk. What is most energising about the Princess at Wimbledon though is her reactions. While most Royal occasions call for steely disposition, Wimbledon sees her throw caution to the wind and move from spectated to spectator. We see wide smiles, hands on face, and as many 'oohs' and 'aahs' as you can imagine as the rallies only lengthen, her wide-rim sunglasses struggling to hide any favouritism. With the 2025 Championships beginning on 30 June, the world waits in anticipation to see the Princess traverse the steps into the Royal Box. Last year, following her cancer diagnosis and treatment, she was welcomed with a lengthy standing ovation. And the same sort of reaction could be anticipated for Wimbledon 2025, too. Will the Princess of Wales be at Wimbledon 2025? Certainly. It'll only be in the case of something truly remarkable that'll stop the tennis fan from attending (giving birth to the future King Prince George and a global pandemic putting a spanner in the works previously) and with it the promise of a new trunk of noteworthy summer looks, too. Until then, the Princess of Wales' best Wimbledon looks thus far. The Princess of Wales was greeted with a round of applause when she arrived in the Royal Box at Centre Court wearing a purple Safiyaa dress. She chose a green Roland Mouret dress to present Carlos Alcaraz with the winner's title. She chose sunshine yellow by Roksanda, a dress she wore first during a trip to the Caribbean. Her perfect blow dry was worn with a forest green Emilia Wickstead dress and white pumps. Attending with her husband, Prince William, Catherine looked especially fashion forward in a blue polka dot Alessandra Rich dress styled with slingback stilettos and a Mulberry bag. Catherine stepped onto Centre Court in baby blue Emilia Wickstead to give Novak Djokovic the winner's trophy. In 2021, she chose a blush pink Beulah dress. She chose a navy polka dot dress by Alessandra Rich for the final day of the 2022 Championships. A citrus Self-Portrait skirt suit for the thirteenth day of the 2023 Championships. She wore dark green Dolce & Gabbana dress with gold button detailing to watch the women's finals with her sister, Pippa Middleton, and sister-in-law, Meghan Markle. The Duchess of Cambridge arrived with her sister-in-law, Meghan Markle, in tow and wore a printed tea dress and carried a Dolce & Gabbana bag. Attending with her friends, Kate Middleton wore a brilliant white dress with a black cardigan. Freelancer

WNBA player flashed bloody smile after losing a tooth
Washington Mystics guard Jade Melbourne lost part of a tooth during a matchup with the Las Vegas Aces, and her bloody smile afterward was pretty gnarly. (WARNING: If you're squeamish, now is the time to turn away. Seriously. The following photos and video are not for the faint of heart. Walk away while you still can.) On Thursday, Washington traveled to Vegas to take on the Aces. The Mystics walked out of the building with a big win, but not everyone left Michaelob Ultra arena with the things they came in with. During the first quarter, poor Jade Melbourne lost a tooth fragment after taking an accidental elbow to the face from Aces' guard Chelsey Gray. Melbourne got caught behind Gray while defending, and because she was in close proximity, when Gray went to make a move down the court, Melbourne caught the brunt of her elbow directly to her mouth. Ouch. The Mystics' guard immediately grabbed for her face, and out went her tooth, flying to the floor along with blood. After review, Gray's offensive foul was upgraded to a flagrant, and guard Sonia Citron shot free throws for Melbourne, who was unable to return to the game. Thankfully, the Mystics took care of business without her. They walked away with a 94-83 win, and amazingly, the Australian native watched the rest of the game from the bench. You would think something like that might understandably ruin Melbourne's night, but after the game, her teammate Georgia Amoore posted a gritty photo to her Instagram. It was Melbourne flashing a bloody smile with two thumbs up. Tough as nails.
