Kate Middleton Shows How to Transition from Winter to Spring in Ralph Lauren Pleated Knit Dress for Leicester Outing

Kate Middleton favored knitted attire in a pleated cream Ralph Lauren dress for her latest outing on Thursday in Leicester, England.

Caitriona Balfe Bids Farewell to ‘Outlander’ as She Takes On New Characters

The final season of “Outlander” hasn’t premiered yet, but Caitriona Balfe has already said her goodbye. “We sort of said our goodbyes a year and a half ago, and now this is the final goodbye,” says the Irish actress a few weeks before the release of the show’s eighth season, which wrapped filming in fall of 2024. “I think the fans are ready to see it, and I think we’re ready for them to see it as well.” The actress was recently in New York on a “whirlwind” press trip in January, before returning to the city this week for the red carpet premiere and main press push for the series finale. While Balfe is used to the long breaks between each release — each season takes almost a year to film — this final pause has taken place in a different liminal space. Balfe and her costars won’t be returning to set and their characters.   “In some ways, it sort of feels like we had this really long hiatus, and now we’re back together,” says Balfe. “Even though a lot of us have seen each other o...

The “Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga” star wore a champagne-toned custom midi dress from the French luxury fashion house. Designed with a soft V-shaped neckline, the dress evoked 1950s glamour.
