MILAN — Top model Irina Shayk injected buzz into Georgian designer David Koma's debut as Blumarine's creative director, opening the Fall-Winter 2025-26 preview show during Milan Fashion Week on Thursday in a mood-setting, sharply executed, shearling-trimmed coat.
For her second turn, Shayk wore a slinky sheer dress with a deep slit under a matching Navy blue shearling fur. In two looks, she encompassed both the modern, structural tailoring that Kona is best known for, and Blumarine's romantic feminism.

Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job'

Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job' originally appeared on Parade. A country star who has found himself at the center of some controversies in recent years made a bold statement about what "a wife's job" is around the house. In a recent interview with Taste of Country, country star got to talking about what it's like at home when he's not on tour. While it sounds like he definitely pitches in around the house, it also sounds like his "wife's job" is to keep him busy with a honey-do list. "[Brittany] gets on Amazon and orders all this stuff, and it comes to the house and I'm like, 'What is this?' and she goes, 'Oh, we're gonna redo Navy's room,' and I'm like, 'Oh, "we are"? OK, cool,'' said added, "That's kind of a wife's job. If they just see you chilling, doing nothing, watching baseball or whatever, they're like, 'Hey, you should help me do this!' 'OK, here we go,'" the country star said wryly, adding that he's "gotta get back to work" so he can get a break from all that. "I've been off the road for about six months, and I am itching to get back after it," said Aldean. The Taste of Country host followed up by joking, "When's the last time Jason Aldean did a load of laundry?", and Aldean said that he helps with that kind of thing all the time. "Probably yesterday! Yeah, you know, we kind of tag-team that up. If she does it, she'll bring it in, I'll fold it or whatever. I pitch in around the house and help out," said the married Brittany Kerr in 2015. They met in 2012 when photos of them surfaced canoodling at a bar, and he was forced to issue an apology for "acting inappropriately" because at the time, he was married to his first wife, Jessica Ann Ussery. Ussery and Aldean separated a few months later, and Kerr and Aldean made their first public appearance as a couple in 2014 before marrying a year later. Aldean has two daughters from his first marriage, Keeley, 22, and Kendyl, 17, and a son, Memphis, 7, and a daughter, Navy, 6, from his second marriage. The singer has never been a stranger to controversy, from his second wife posting a video with transphobic comments that caused his public relations firm The GreenRoom to part ways with him after 17 years, to his "Try That in a Small Town" song, the video for which was pulled from CMT because of backlash over its lyrics about guns, violence and what some deemed coded references to lynching. Aldean was famously performing on stage during the 2017 mass shooting at his Las Vegas concert that killed 60 people. 🎬 SIGN UP for Parade's Daily newsletter to get the latest pop culture news & celebrity interviews delivered right to your inbox 🎬 Controversial Country Star Makes Bold Statement About 'A Wife's Job' first appeared on Parade on Jun 10, 2025 This story was originally reported by Parade on Jun 10, 2025, where it first appeared.

The dress also featured billowing sleeves, with a flowing, bohemian style and cinched cuffs. The cuffs and hemline of Jackson's dress included sharp, geometric shaping to offset the botanical design. Jackson wore a slipdress beneath the frock. She paired her look with black platform sandal heels. Fendi's fall 2019 couture collection fashion show was set against an imposing backdrop of the Roman Colosseum. The collection marked a step toward the future, following the death of noted designer Karl Lagerfeld in February 2019. Lagerfeld served as creative director of the Italian luxury fashion house. Designer Silvia Venturini Fendi curated the collection, featuring 54 looks that symbolized Lagerfeld's 54-year tenure with the fashion house. 'In readying the collection, she reviewed the archives somewhat randomly and came away with several ideas as reference points, particularly those revolving around lightness,' Bridget Foley wrote in WWD's review of the collection. 'She also took inspiration from a gift Lagerfeld gave her the last time they were together, a book on the Viennese Secessionists' magazine Ver Sacrum,' Foley wrote.

July 4 band concert in need of community support

Jun. 9—MORGANTOWN — For nearly half a century, a July 4 tradition has resonated through Morgantown—not the crackle of fireworks, but the sounds of a community band playing patriotic music. However, the future of the Morgantown Municipal Band's annual concert at the WVU Creative Arts Center is at risk due to lack of funding. Since the beginning, in 1978, the band has been a staple for the city's celebrations, bringing crowds of all ages. "People really value it. It's something that's gone on for so long, " said longtime flutist and Morgantown resident Dorothy Skidmore, who has played in the band for more tan 30 years. "It's not just a concert, but a tribute to the founding of our country." This year, the concert's survival depends on raising a remaining $2, 090. Sponsorships and donations that used to come from a few benefactors have faded. "The larger sums of money just aren't there anymore. It's been reduced to piecemeal donations, " Skidmore said. "The musicians are only paid $80, and we rehearse the day before. It's not a lot, but it's still work. People shouldn't be expected to play for free." Despite their minimal pay, most musicians in the band perform out of a passion for the music and the meaning behind it. "I think I'd do it without being paid, because I love doing it, " Skidmore added. "But there are people who feel strongly that this music deserves the same support that goes to other concerts in town, especially for a national holiday like this." The concert has moved over the years, originally held downtown before shifting to the Amphitheater, and later to the shaded area outside the WVU Creative Arts Center. The band has been conducted by C.B. Wilson for more than 30 years. "He always brought this sense of reverence to the concert, " Skidmore said. "He'd have veterans in the crowd stand when their military branch's anthem played, like 'Anchors Aweigh' for the Navy. It made the audience feel like they were part of something greater." Efforts to secure support and sponsors have come up short, while larger groups are not having such issues, she said. "Those groups get paid thousands, and here we are struggling to find $2, 000. It's surprising because this concert is about honoring our veterans and the founding of our country. It should be something people are proud to support, " Skidmore said. The band is hoping to have enough funds raised by June 15. If the goal is not met, Morgantown may experience the first Independence Day in nearly five decades without this concert. "This isn't just music. It's a celebration of freedom, of history, of community. And it would be heartbreaking to let that fade, " she said. Checks may be written to the Monongalia Symphony Orchestra, with the Morgantown Municipal Band cited on the "for " line and sent to 433 Western Ave., Morgantown, WV 26505. Questions may be directed to Elaine Riffle at 304-288-2034.
