Carrie Bickmore turned heads on Wednesday as she rocked up to her own event in a dazzling $3,495 AUD designer gown. The 44-year-old radio star smiled and greeted fans on the red carpet as she celebrated ten years of her foundation, Carrie's Beanies 4 Brain Cancer. Carrie's outfit, from boutique label Rachel Gilbert, features a column design and square neckline and boasts decorative hand crafted embellishments. Wearing her longs blonde locks fall over her shoulders, Carrie paired the stunning dress with a pair red heels and accessorised with a matching gold necklace. Looking fit to burst at her charity's success - which celebrates ten years in 2025 and has raised $24 million for cancer research - Carrie completed her look with low-key glamour makeup. During the event Carrie was seen impressing her guests at the turntable for a DJ set. From A-list scandals and red carpet mishaps to exclusive pictures and viral moments, subscribe to the DailyMail's new showbiz newsletter to stay in the loop Carrie took to her Instagram on Wednesday to share some images from the event. Posting a picture of herself and a guest she captioned the snap, 'Such a special night to launch this year's campaign. 'What an incredible ten years so far. Make sure you buy your beanie.' She also shared several pictures of herself with guests wearing her trademark beanie. It comes after Carrie was welcomed back to The Project on Tuesday night in a downpour of confetti. The television and radio star, who quit the Channel Ten show back in 2022, returned to her old stomping ground for a good cause. The Hit network host was on the desk for a ten minute segment that closed the show - but only as a guest. She was there to celebrate the tear year anniversary of her charity foundation. During the event Carrie was seen impressing her guests at the turntable for a DJ set Carrie was a little thrown by taking a spot at the end of the desk after being front row centre during her tenure on the current affairs series. 'I think the only other time I sat on this end was the day after I won the Logie' she joked, adding that she'd just had her daughter at the time. 'I had little Evie and I came here and it feels as weird as it did then' Carrie said, becoming emotional as she looked back. Carrie promoted her latest collection of beanies as well as an upcoming marathon she will be taking part in to raise funds. Among those taking part are Carrie's radio co-star and rumorued lover Tommy Little. 'I have no chance. He's surprisingly fast. He can stay out drinking and get up and run which is annoying. I can't do that. I need to be in bed by 7pm' Carrie joked. She was then invited to move back to the centre of the desk alongside former co-star Waleed Aly to close out the show. Viewers were happy to see her again, with one writing on social media: 'Ah a blast from the past of when The Project was actually good, funny and popular.' Another person watching at home chimed in: 'Just like old times'. Carrie announced her departure from The Project after 12 years on air in October, 2022.

Blue Sky Scrubs Launches Pickleball Scrubs Collection A Country Club-Inspired Celebration of Style and Sport
Blue Sky Scrubs, the Austin-based leader in designer luxury medical apparel, proudly announces the launch of its newest limited-edition collection: The Pickleball Scrubs Collection. Blending the classic charm of country club aesthetics with performance-focused design, this capsule release introduces a fresh take on medical workwear that is as stylish as it is functional. AUSTIN, TX / ACCESS Newswire / May 11, 2025 / Anchoring the new collection is the brand's signature navy blue base, accented with a vibrant pink and green striped tie-a tasteful nod to the refined sport of pickleball, one of the fastest-growing recreational activities in the United States. With this launch, Blue Sky Scrubs celebrates the spirit of movement, camaraderie, and confidence that healthcare professionals embody every day-on and off the court. The Pickleball Scrubs Collection is available for a limited time only and will be offered exclusively on Blue Sky Scrubs' website. These one-of-a-kind scrub sets are designed for medical professionals who want to express their individuality, embrace current lifestyle trends, and enjoy luxury-quality scrubs that feel as good as they look. A Nod to Culture, Crafted with Care Inspired by the intersection of sport, leisure, and professional life, Blue Sky Scrubs designed the Pickleball Collection to represent more than a fashion statement. The collection reflects the evolving culture of wellness, self-expression, and community engagement within the healthcare industry. As pickleball continues to gain popularity across all age groups and professions, Blue Sky Scrubs saw an opportunity to create a collection that pays homage to the upbeat energy and collegiality the game inspires. 'Our team is constantly listening to what healthcare professionals are doing outside of work-and pickleball kept coming up in conversation,' said Shelby Marquardt, founder and chief designer of Blue Sky Scrubs. 'This collection is a playful tribute to a sport that's captured the hearts of many of our customers. We wanted to create something that would feel joyful, elevated, and uniquely Blue Sky.'

The fabric is lightweight, breathable, wrinkle-resistant, and ideal for long shifts. The standout feature-a crisp striped tie in green and pink-adds a pop of personality while maintaining the polished professionalism Blue Sky Scrubs is known for. This collection also reflects the brand's growing focus on capsule wardrobes and limited-edition drops-giving customers access to pieces that feel exclusive and trend-forward without compromising utility.

From disaster relief donations and student support programs to volunteer initiatives and themed giveaways, Blue Sky Scrubs consistently looks for new ways to show up for the community that supports them. 'This collection is also a thank-you,' said Marquardt. 'It's a way to say, 'We see you, we appreciate you, and you deserve to wear something that makes you feel amazing.' Our customers work hard. We believe their uniforms should work just as hard for them-and make them smile while doing it.'
