The BAFTA longlist has been announced. Basically, this is the selection of actors, movies, directors, you name it, that the BAFTA committees have to choose their nominees from. Among them? Ariana Grande and Selena Gomez, of course, alongside Timothée Chalamet for A Complete Unknown. But a few of our favourites with less noise are getting shouted about too: Mark Eydelshteyn for Anora, Harris Dickinson for Babygirl, while the beautiful All We Imagine As Light has made the cut for Director, Screenplay and Film Not in the English Language.

rosita missoni

Rosita Missoni, co-founder of Missoni, has died. She founded the Italian fashion house, famed for its expressive and colourful knitwear, in 1953 with her late husband Ottavio. In 1996, after growing their brand from a humble operation in Northern Italy into a global success, the duo began to hand over control of Missoni to their children. Rosita spent her later years living in Varese, Lombardy, in the house she owned with Ottavio. She was a voracious collector of colourful goods she found at flea markets. In an interview with The Guardian in 2022, she said: “I have had the privilege of living a long life.” She was 93.

Charli’s film taste is unmatched. According to her Letterboxd, over the last few days she’s watched movies by John Cassavetes (Opening Night) and Asia Argento (Scarlet Diva). You can follow an account on X that lines up her watching habits with significant events in her career. For example, on the same day she took over Times Square last year, she watched Wim Wenders’ Perfect Days.

Last night, Timothée Chalamet went live on Instagram. He proceeded to dance around an empty hangar shirtless to the sound of “I Gotta Feeling” by the Black Eyed Peas as images of Bob Dylan and text flashed on a gigantic screen. The text? “good luck with your future” and “congratulations timothée”. Is this how he’s celebrating the OG Bob Dylan, who he plays in A Complete Unknown, approving of his performance?

I Saw The TV Glow director Jane Schoenbrun says her next film will be a queer horror. At a recent Q&A, Schoenbrun described the film, titled Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma, as “Portrait of a Lady on Fire set in a Friday the 13th sequel.” If this hasn’t already immediately piqued your interest, the film, as Schoenbrun previously told Filmmaker Magazine, is “all about sex.” Ding, ding and ding.

Uniqlo x JW Anderson SS25 will put some prep in your step. Now in their eighth year of annual collaboration, the newest collection from the UK and Japanese fashion labels is all about modern collegiate looks.

MSCHF put a very recognisable “Famous Mouse” on an ancient Greek sculpture. Back in 2021, the  disruptive fashion collective began selling tokens that promised a “Famous Mouse” artwork at $100 a pop with one small catch – buyers would have to wait until 2024 to redeem their token. For those curious enough (and with enough disposable income) to purchase it, the time has come to find out what the tokens are actually good for. As promised, MSCHF have delivered a very famous – and very cursed – mouse in a reimagined version of Laocoön and His Sons. The need to wait three years? Walt Disney’s 1928 rendering of Mickey Mouse is now, finally, in the public domain.
