When Andrea Perra first set eyes on his magnificent palazzo near Mount Etna, it was – like the volcano itself – “sleeping, waiting to be awakened”. That was two decades ago, and thanks to his passion for interiors, the baroque beauty in Catania has burst back to life. Restoring it was no small project, as the architect admits. “Maybe it’s because I was born near Etna that I’m enthusiastic and overflowing with energy,” he laughs as, accompanied by his fiancée Carla Travierso and niece Beatrice Floridia, he guides us through exquisite salons filled with frescoes, where the light of candelabra sets gilding ashimmer. ‘WE THROW THE KIND OF PARTIES NOBLES DID IN THE OLD DAYS’ ‘I FELT WHAT I OWED TO SOMETHING SO WONDERFUL WAS TO RESTORE ITS LOST LIGHT’…

Looking sleek and stylish in matching black leather outfits, Idris and Sabrina Elba rocked the front row as they led a stellar crowd at Paris menswear autumn/winter 2025-26 Fashion Week. The Luther actor and his Canadian model wife were among the stars at Louis Vuitton – where musician Pharrell Williams is men’s creative director – and revealed they were enjoying a second honeymoon, more than five years after they spent a romantic break in the city as newlyweds. “It’s a sexy town. We once got stuck in a hotel in Paris, while on our way to our honeymoon,” said Idris, 52, who married Sabrina, 35, in 2019. “That is a big memory for us – we were married and in love – so a work trip like this can quickly…

Sir Rod Stewart’s 80th birthday festivities continued in exuberant style with a surprise celebration dinner last week. Arranged by his wife Penny Lancaster and shared with their close friends, Rolling Stones legend Ronnie Wood and his film producer wife Sally, the soiree took place at exclusive Mount Street Restaurant in London’s Mayfair against a backdrop of tartan decor, in homage to Rod’s Scottish heritage. Ever the showman, the rocker, who hit his milestone on 10 January, embraced the moment with his signature flair, sporting a gold and black suit teamed with gold slippers and gold and pearl jewellery. His show-stopping three-tiered cake was themed around his beloved Celtic Football Club and he finished the evening proudly wearing a “birthday bhoy” badge – the Glasgow club’s supporters are known as “bhoys”,…

In the late 1980s, you couldn’t turn anywhere without seeing or hearing Neighbours’ perky trio Kylie Minogue, Jason Donovan and Guy Pearce. The Aussie soap stars earned a huge part of our hearts, but if you’d asked anyone back then which of the inhabitants of Ramsay Street would stay the course and gain an Oscar nomination, chances are that Guy might not have been top of the list. A former child actor, he achieved overnight stardom as Mike Young in Neighbours, going on to appear in 476 episodes – including the supposedly final one two years ago, which saw him reunited with Kylie and Jason. Over the years, the soap proved a breeding ground for some of Australia’s finest talent, including Margot Robbie, Russell Crowe, Chris Hemsworth and Ben Mendelsohn.…

Any woman in the public eye is all too painfully aware that her wardrobe choices will be scrutinised. When that woman is Melania Trump, the stakes are indubitably higher. Which is likely to be why her inauguration day outfits were so carefully chosen to act as sophisticated shields, combining glamour with armour. For the inauguration ceremony itself, she eschewed her beloved European favourites Dior and Valentino for a double-breasted navy coat by New York-based designer Adam Lippes, a patriotic choice that affirmed her husband’s America First ethos. However, the coat surely owed a debt of gratitude to Dior, since it shared similarly covered buttons and gently padded hips with the house’s fabled Bar jacket. The First Lady teamed her coat with a matching navy boater by Eric Javits, its white…

For the Duke of Sussex, this was personal. He had vowed to make his crusade against the newspapers that harmed him and those closest to him his “life’s work”. Last week, in a move that would have made his mother “proud” according to his uncle, Prince Harry elicited an “unequivocal apology” from News Group Newspapers, plus an eight-figure payout for “serious intrusion” into his private life and that of Diana, Princess of Wales. “It’s wonderful that Harry fought for – and gained – an apology to his mother,” his uncle Earl Spencer said afterwards, adding: “She would be incredibly touched at that, and rightly proud.” The unexpected outcome means that Harry, who had been due to take the witness stand in mid-February – straight after the 2025 Vancouver-Whistler edition of…

The Duchess of Edinburgh was all smiles last week as she jumped at the chance to cuddle a cavalier King Charles spaniel that affectionately nestled into her and playfully nibbled her earring. The nine-week-old puppy, named Lord Louis of Spudringham, was among the pets Sophie met on a visit to Dogs for Autism in Alton, Hampshire. Founded in 2016, the charity is the first organisation in the UK to exclusively provide assistance dogs for people with autism, of all ages, at no cost. She and Lord Louis – who has an older sibling called Lexi, already part of the charity’s team – quickly became inseparable, as the puppy settled in her lap with a toy and she leant down to give him a kiss. Animal-lover Sophie was in her element…

It’s hard to believe that KT Tunstall’s biggest hit, Suddenly I See, turns 20 this year. The Scottish singer-songwriter’s career exploded after the catchy tune featured on the soundtrack to hit 2006 film The Devil Wears Prada, opening the door to worldwide fame. The musical career of Kate Victoria Tunstall began when she started busking as a teen, going on to perform with various bands before releasing her debut album, the Mercury Music Prize-nominated Eye to the Telescope, in 2004.

KENDALL JENNER KEEPS HER COOL IN COLORADO A trip to Aspen is as much about style as skiing. And if anyone knows that, it is Kendall Jenner. A regular visitor to the upscale Colorado resort, on her latest weekender she showcased her love of cold-weather chic, dressing for a snowy stroll in her coolest vintage – black Commando leggings and a turtleneck, topped with a double-breasted Alaïa coat and a 1970s fur hat, with Ann Demeulemeester riding boots. “It’s always so fun to dress up for snowy weather,” the Los Angeles native said last year. “To really layer up. I love a good faux fur – anything warm and cosy.” Enjoying a frosty fashion moment with her were Kendall’s younger sister Kylie and close friend Hailey Bieber – both of…

Stepping into her seventh decade in an elegant outfit and a pair of killer heels, the Duchess of Edinburgh looked more stylish than ever as she turned 60 last week. In recent years Sophie has slowly but surely emerged as a royal style icon as her star has risen; taking on greater royal responsibilities to match her new title while growing equally in sartorial confidence.

CUNARD MERYL STREEP WHY CUNARD? Just as Meryl Streep is the actress’s actress, Cunard is the cruisers’ cruise line: classic, timeless, the original. In the film Let Them All Talk, Meryl herself spent weeks living on board the RMS Queen Mary 2, playing a novelist who writes while making a Transatlantic crossing. Ed Sheeran felt similarly inspired when he had a pop-up music studio built aboard the ship, going on to record much of his Divide album at sea. WHICH CRUISE SHOULD I TAKE? If you’re creative like Meryl and Ed, take Cunard’s unique Fashion Week cruise (from 31 October), which features runway shows and Q&As with designers. But the classic voyage is from Southampton to New York (above), with black-tie dinners, Michelin-starred menus and the only Laurent Perrier champagne bar…

Picking up a prestigious award in Switzerland, the former England football captain – married to Victoria, who helped put “girl power” on the map with her Spice Girls bandmates in the 1990s – said: “I’m lucky enough to be a father of three boys and one beautiful girl. “I want my daughter Harper to have the same opportunities as her brothers, and that should be the case for all girls everywhere. Being a girl shouldn’t determine what you can do, where you can go and who you can become.” David – dad to Brooklyn, 25, Romeo, 22, Cruz, 19, and 13-year-old Harper – was being honoured for his humanitarian work at…

Just six months ago, they were at the centre of speculation that they had ended their engagement. But Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson confirmed that their love was very much alive when they were photographed walking hand in hand through Mumbai during a romantic trip to India. The pair looked happier than ever as they took a stroll through a busy street near the city’s Hanging Gardens last week. Fifty Shades of Grey actress Dakota was casual in a black floral dress and trainers, while her pop star partner dressed down in a T-shirt, trousers and baseball cap. The couple have always taken pains to keep their romance private and that remained the case during their trip to India, where they maintained a low-key presence as they made the most…

A tide of change is sweeping the country and America has the chance to seize this opportunity like never before.” The inauguration, usually…

For decades, she has regularly topped the list of hardest-working royals, and now the Princess Royal has revealed that she has no plans to retire. “I don’t think there’s a retirement programme on this particular life,” Princess Anne said in a rare interview. “It really isn’t written in. It isn’t really an option… I don’t think so.” Anne, who turns 75 in August, also spoke for the first time about a freak accident last year that left her concussed, bruised and recovering in hospital for five nights, saying that the experience had taught her to “take each day as it comes”. Although she was thought to have been kicked by a horse, the Princess revealed that she has no memory of the incident, which happened on her Gatcombe Park estate…
