Is Alexandra Saint Mleux sport's most fashionable WAG? F1 driver Charles Leclerc's girlfriend is known for her race day looks by Sau Lee and Jacquemus – and has partnered with Rhode and Meshki

Alexandra Saint Mleux may not be getting behind the wheel on race weekends, but she's certainly one of the most recognisable faces in the Formula One paddock. The 23-year-old girlfriend of Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc has claimed her title as the sport's 'It girl' with her impeccable style and elegant demeanour.

In just over a year, Saint Mleux's previously private Instagram account skyrocketed from under 1,000 followers to nearly 2.5 million, thanks largely to her incredibly chic appearances at numerous Formula One races and events. That fashionable profile has catapulted Saint Mleux into partnerships with a range of well-known brands – she's worked with Hailey Bieber's Rhode and in May, debuted her resortwear collection with Australian label Meshki during the Monaco Grand Prix weekend.

Cheongsam-inspired Sau Lee dress in Shanghai, China In March, Alexandra Saint Mleux stunned fans at the Shanghai Grand Prix when she showed up at the paddock wearing this dress by Hong Kong label Sau Lee. Earlier this year, Saint Mleux stole the spotlight at the Shanghai Grand Prix with looks that paid homage to Chinese heritage. On March 21, she stepped into the paddock wearing a black minidress by Hong Kong-based label Sau Lee that featured a Mandarin collar and red knotted accents in a nod to the traditional cheongsam. She added a modern twist with red ballet flats and dark sunglasses, perfectly matching the outfit's colour palette. For the finishing touch, Saint Mleux blended fashion, motorsport and romance by carrying a custom Ferrari Style Maranello clutch inspired by Leclerc's personal Daytona SP3. She ended the weekend with a soft pink co-ord that featured another cheongsam-style top, and Sau Lee's Vanessa midi dress in black, which she paired with a Saint Laurent Cinq-a-Sept mini bag and patent leather stiletto boots.

How Lan Lao's Blueprint Supreme dance challenge went viral on Chinese social media

A new dance trend based on a hit song from Chinese rapper Lan Lao , who recently surpassed Mandopop icon Jay Chou as the most-streamed Mandarin singer, is sweeping China. Earlier this month, Buqi Crew, a street dance crew in Chongqing, in southwest China, created a dance for Lao's biggest hit, 'Da zhan hong tu', or 'Blueprint Supreme' in English. It quickly evolved into a dance challenge that has taken Chinese social media platforms such as Douyin and RedNote by storm. Videos show all kinds of fans performing the dance, from young children in school uniforms to elderly women in the countryside. K-pop stars and other artists have also hopped on the trend. The challenge has also been embraced by Hong Kong celebrities such as actor Vincent Wong Ho-shun, who attempted the dance live on television, and Malaysian actress Lin Min-chen, who shared her version to her millions of followers on Instagram.

As AI gets more powerful, humans and human values must remain in charge

Two stylistically distinct films were shown in Chinese cinemas this summer, each depicting a future dominated by artificial intelligence (AI). As the franchise finale, Mission: Impossible – The Final Reckoning revisits past missions, showcasing how deadly weapons that threaten humanity have evolved – from viruses and nuclear weapons to AI, now cast not merely as a tool but the villain's accomplice, even the puppet master. Meanwhile, Ghost in the Shell , the 1995 anime film enjoying a 30th anniversary rescreening, offers a more philosophical approach, exploring the blurred line between humans and AI through a cyborg's existential quest, repeatedly asking: Who am I? Both films reflect different anxieties over the rapid rise of AI: the fear of losing control and a deeper unease about the erosion of human subjectivity. In a future of human-machine symbiosis, if AI surpasses to become an equal or superior presence, can human-centred values still hold? This year, tech giants including OpenAI, Anthropic and Google rolled out AI agents back-to-back, built to automate end-to-end workflows with minimal human input. Heralding AI agents as 'the next giant breakthrough', OpenAI CEO Sam Altman has overseen two landmark releases this year. While Operator helps users fill out forms, order groceries and even complete purchases, Deep Research is designed to carry out complex, multi-step analyses at the level of a research analyst, completing in 'tens of minutes' what would take a human 'many hours'.
