‘Misshapes, mistakes, misfits': Pulp's signature secondhand style has stood test of time
Thirty years ago this month Pulp played the Pyramid stage at Glastonbury and took their reputation to another level. If part of this was due to a storming set taking in their new hit Common People, debuts for their future hits Mis-Shapes and Disco 2000, and the star power of singer Jarvis Cocker, it was also down to their look. There was Steve Mackay, bass guitarist, in a fitted shirt and kipper tie, Russell Senior on violin in a blue safari shirt, keyboardist Candida Doyle in sequins and – of course – Cocker, in his now signature secondhand 70s tailoring. Fast forward to 2025 and Pulp have their first album in 24 years, More, and a tour taking in the UK, Europe and the US. It is a moment that will put their music and their style back in the public eye. While the bucket hats, parkas and round specs of Oasis, the other Britpop band on tour this summer, are likely to dominate what young men are wearing, Pulp's look is an alternative one that celebrates the secondhand. As Cocker writes in his book Good Pop, Bad Pop, his first jumble-sale buy, a garish 70s shirt, was 'the real beginning of the Pulp aesthetic'. Its pomp can be seen in videos such as for 1993's Babies – with Cocker topless in a flared suit, Mackay in another garish print and Doyle in mod-ish stripes. The influence of Pulp's look in the 90s was partly about the sugar high of its eclectic, graphic take on nostalgia but also its accessibility. '[Other bands] had a secondhand look, but Pulp made it a little bit more colourful, not quite kitsch, but on the edge of kitsch,' says Miranda Sawyer, the author of the Britpop history Uncommon People. Doyle says: 'They obviously looked stylish but you did think, 'OK I can get that stuff'. We were skint for a lot of the first 10 years being in Pulp. I used to find some amazing things [in charity shops].' Three decades later, and secondhand shopping once again dominates the way young people dress. Peter Bevan, 30, a stylist and contributing editor of the Rakish Gent, says: 'Everyone I know who's my age or younger shops in charity shops, in vintage shops, Depop, Vinted. I don't know many people that buy loads of new things any more.' A survey in 2023 found that 64% of gen Z will look for an item secondhand before buying it new. While part of this is likely down to cost and environmental concerns, the haphazard nature of secondhand shopping is championed as a way to express yourself through clothing. 'Everyone who looks cool [now] is doing them rather than trying to do something else,' adds Bevan, who says this is why Pulp appeal. 'Although obviously [Pulp] all made very considered choices that work together you can tell that they're [each] dressing for them[selves] as well.' James Millar, a 22-year-old guitarist in the band the Sukis, regularly shares videos of his Cocker-like looks to the band's 103.4k TikTok followers, and watched Pulp perform in Dublin this week. '[Cocker] is heavily influenced by 70s fashion … but he's not doing 70s cosplay. When I see pictures of him, and what he wears, it just looks like him,' he says. While Doyle bristles at being classed as a Britpop band – 'we don't associate with [it] because of the union jack,' she says – they will inevitably be compared with Oasis, with both bands touring this summer. Style-wise, Bevan says Pulp come out on top. 'I like the Oasis look but [they were originally about a] counter-culture fashion moment. Now it feels like they're meant to look like they're not trying hard in a fashion way but in reality they are trying really hard to look cool. Pulp all have their own personal sense of style that goes way beyond throwing on a Stone Island windbreaker and a pair of jeans.' Sign up to Fashion Statement Style, with substance: what's really trending this week, a roundup of the best fashion journalism and your wardrobe dilemmas solved after newsletter promotion The fact that success eluded Pulp for a decade helped. 'Me and Jarvis were in our 30s by the time we got big, we'd had a long life of knowing what we liked to wear,' says Doyle. While other bands might have had stylists as standard, this was avoided in favour of wearing their own clothes, a principle that remains today. 'I still have a very strong sense of what I like and what I really don't like,' says Doyle. 'I make sure I wear something as bright as possible. I've got a new [outfit] that's white, there are some sequins on it, and there are some tassels. It's good with tassels, because when you move, it comes with you.' She says clothes were even part of what helped form Pulp in the first place. 'We all grew up in Sheffield, and if you dressed a bit strangely, you stood out. So we'd all congregate at the same venues,' she says, adding insight that sounds like a lost lyric from revenge of the nerds anthem, Mis-Shapes: 'There'd be townies and weirdos, squares and students.' Perhaps the enduring appeal of Pulp's style is once again about the triumph of Mis-Shapes, with its lyrics of 'misshapes, mistakes, misfits', and how expressing your personality through the lucky dip of secondhand clothing is a win. 'Jarvis understands his appeal,' says Sawyer. 'He's accentuating all the things that people have picked on him for. He's saying, 'I'm a tall weed or whatever you wanted to call me. This is who I am and, actually, I look great'.'

Carnie Wilson breaks silence on dad Brian Wilson's death after his devastating health battle
Brian Wilson's daughter Carnie Wilson is speaking out following the death of the music star at 82 after a battle with dementia. 'I have no words to express the sadness I feel right now,' Carnie, 57, told 204,000 followers on Instagram Wednesday evening. 'My Father was every fiber of my body. 'He will be remembered by millions and millions until the world ends. I am lucky to have been his daughter and had a soul connection with him that will live on always.' The Wilson Phillips singer added, 'I've never felt this kind of pain before, but I know he's resting up there in heaven ... or maybe playing the piano for Grandma Audree his Mom.' The Hold On songstress wrapped up in saying, 'I will post something else soon but this is all my hands will let me type. I love you Daddy....I miss so much you already.' Carnie, a member of the musical trio with sister Wendy Wilson, 55, and Chynna Phillips Baldwin, said a year ago her dad had been 'well taken care of' as he reflected on his incredible life and career in music. Carnie spoke with People in April 2024 about how her father was doing in his dementia battle, in addition to the conservatorship he was placed in, months after the January 2024 death of his spouse Melinda Ledbetter at 77. 'He's living in so much gratitude right now that he got to tour all these years,' Carnie said. 'We are a very big part of his life, helping monitor his health, helping them make sure that every day, he's cared for.' Carnie spoke out as Beach Boys co-founder Al Jardine paid memorial to his late friend and colleague. 'Brian Wilson, my friend, my classmate, my football teammate, my Beach Boy bandmate and my brother in spirit, I will always feel blessed that you were in our lives for as long as you were,' Jardine said in a statement. Wilson's passing came after a tragic health battle that saw the musical icon behind hits such as California Girls, Good Vibrations and Wouldn't It Be Nice living with dementia. Jardine referenced Wilson's late brothers and Beach Boys bandmates Carl and Dennis, who died respectively in 1998 and 1983. 'I think the most comforting thought right now is that you are reunited with Carl and Dennis, singing those beautiful harmonies again,' Jardine said. Jardine wrapped up with warm words for the iconic singer-songwriter, saying, 'You were a humble giant who always made me laugh and we will celebrate your music forever.' Jardine referenced the group's 1964 track The Warmth Of The Sun, saying, 'Brian, I'll really miss you…still I have the warmth of the sun within me tonight.' Wilson and Jardine initially crossed paths playing high school football with one another at Hawthorne High School in Hawthorne, California. Jardine played the position of fullback, while Brian – in a possible harbinger to his future leadership in The Beach Boys – was a quarterback. Brian also played baseball and was a cross-country runner during his time in high school, according to his website. They continued their friendship as classmates at El Camino College in Torrance, California. It was there they started exploring their musical aspirations, as Jardine was into folk music, Wilson believed rock 'n' roll was the wave of the future. Wilson eventually asked Jardine to come into the group in the early 60s, and the pals would be seen more than 50 years later continuing to hang out and perform. Jardine was comforted by a number of his followers amid the sad life event. One wrote to the musician: 'You're a beautiful human being Mr Jardine, I'm sorry for your great loss.' Another added, 'Truly sorry for your loss, Al, I can't even imagine how it feels. We will love and cherish Brian's music forever. Said one user: 'I'm so sorry for your loss Al ... Brian was the greatest gift from god. He will be sorely missed.' One user advise the grieving Jardine, 'Listen for the harmonies in the breezes tonight,' adding, 'We love you Al.' Said one user: 'Deepest condolences to you, Al and rest in eternal peace to all the Wilson brothers. Goodbyes are so difficult. At least they are together again.'

Why Rosie O'Donnell fled to Dublin after Trump feud
'No one ever invited me to a sex party. Not that they're sitting home going, 'Well, my choice for the sex party is Rosie O'Donnell.'' O'Donnell, 63, is settling into her new life in Ireland. The actress, stand-up comedian and former talk show host has bought a house in Dublin and is waiting for her Irish citizenship to be approved. The star tells The Sunday Times how she once lived next door in Florida to Sean 'Diddy' Combs, the rap mogul on trial in the US over charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking. The trial has pushed the music mogul's infamous 'freak-off' parties into the spotlight, with witnesses divulging graphic details of the alleged sex and drug-fuelled parties.
