Anne Hathaway revives iconic pixie look in Vogue China

Anne Hathaway has brought back a hairstyle that once became closely associated with her image, turning heads with a dramatic pixie cut for the latest cover of Vogue China.

The Hollywood actress appeared on the magazine’s cover after a 17-year gap and surprised fans with a striking transformation. Known for recently wearing her hair long, Hathaway opted for an extremely short, layered pixie style with bangs for the fashion shoot.

The 43-year-old actress paired the bold hairstyle with a sophisticated white tuxedo-inspired blazer. The outfit featured black piping along the lapels and a single black button, creating a sharp contrast with her overall look.

She completed the appearance with a statement choker decorated with jewels and a prominent blue gemstone. The combination gave the cover a glamorous yet modern appearance.

Hathaway previously sported a similar pixie cut more than a decade ago. The hairstyle became particularly memorable among her fans, making its return a nostalgic moment for many followers.

Although the short hairstyle appears to be a wig rather than a permanent haircut, the transformation has nevertheless generated considerable attention online. Fans quickly filled the magazine’s social media post with praise for the actress’s new appearance.

One admirer described the pixie style as giving Hathaway an androgynous yet elegant look. Other fans simply praised her appearance, calling her the “one and only” and expressing excitement over the transformation.

Hathaway has remained one of Hollywood’s most recognised actresses, earning major honours throughout her career, including an Academy Award, a British Academy Film Award, a Golden Globe and a Primetime Emmy.

The actress has also been balancing an exceptionally busy professional schedule with her family life. She is currently expecting her third child with husband Adam Shulman. The couple already have two sons, born in 2016 and 2019.

Hathaway announced her third pregnancy in June 2026. In an interview connected to her Vogue China appearance, she revealed that she had decided to pause negotiations for new projects so she could prioritise her health and spend more time with her family.

Despite her demanding professional commitments, Hathaway has several major projects connected to her career. She is scheduled to appear alongside Dakota Johnson in Verity, which is set to be released on October 2, 2026.

    Trump says US has ample weapons, ammunition stockpiles

    US President Donald Trump has said the United States possesses extensive stockpiles of weapons and ammunition, dismissing concerns about shortages during recent military operations. In a statement, Trump said the country is continuing to manufacture weapons on a large scale while also procuring additional supplies as needed. He added that defense companies are building a record number of plants and factories to strengthen America’s military production capacity. Trump also warned that those responsible for leaking what he described as “treasonous statements” would be identified and face lengthy prison sentences. His remarks came after reports in the US media claimed that he had questioned Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth over alleged shortages in US weapons stockpiles during the conflict with Iran. According to the reports, the issue had limited Washington’s military options against Tehran. The reports stated that Trump raised the matter during a Cabinet meeting held at Camp David in Maryland last week, where he reportedly sought an explanation from Hegseth about the significant decline in ammunition reserves. However, US officials have denied the media reports, rejecting claims that the country faced a critical shortage of weapons or that military options against Iran were constrained because of depleted stockpiles.

    Govt strengthens monsoon response, fresh rainfall …

    ISLAMABAD: The federal government on Tuesday unveiled an enhanced  preparedness strategy, with senior ministers stressing that effective water regulation, stronger disaster management and coordinated planning are essential to reducing the impact of climate-related emergencies. The announcement came as authorities warned of another intense spell of monsoon rains expected to begin on July 29. According to the National Disaster Management Authority (NDMA), at least 107 people have lost their lives and 297 others have been injured since the current monsoon season started on June 26. Addressing a joint media briefing at the NDMA headquarters, Climate Change Minister Musadik Malik said Pakistan must move beyond the traditional approach of simply storing water and instead adopt a comprehensive system that regulates water supplies throughout the year. He noted that the government is implementing region-specific disaster management plans, recognising that the challenges faced by urban centres, agricultural areas and northern regions require different responses. Malik emphasised that efficient water management is vital for ensuring food security and sustaining agricultural production. He said dams should be used not only for storage but also for regulating water availability during critical farming seasons. He also called for improvements in water monitoring systems, infrastructure and building regulations, adding that close coordination with provincial governments would help minimise losses during natural disasters. National Food Security Minister Rana Tanveer Hussain highlighted the country’s growing need for additional water storage to address both floods and future shortages. He said major infrastructure projects, including the Diamer-Bhasha Dam, Mohmand Dam, Dasu project and Karachi’s K-IV water supply scheme, would significantly strengthen Pakistan’s water resources once completed. Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb described climate change and rapid population growth as two of the country’s most pressing long-term challenges. He said Pakistan is now in a stronger financial position to respond to emergencies than it was during the devastating floods of 2022 and credited the NDMA’s National Emergencies Operation Centre (NEOC) for improving forecasting and disaster preparedness through advanced monitoring systems. Information Minister Attaullah Tarar said preparations for the monsoon season had begun months in advance under the directives of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif. He praised the NEOC’s early warning capabilities for helping reduce casualties and property damage by providing timely alerts through the media and the NDMA mobile application. Tarar also urged citizens to remain vigilant and follow official advisories as heavy rainfall continues across the country. Meanwhile, the flood situation remains concerning in several regions. Although water levels in the Chenab River have shown signs of improvement, low-level flooding continues along parts of the Indus River. Punjab and Khyber Pakhtunkhwa have recorded the highest number of casualties, with many deaths resulting from collapsing houses, electrocution and lightning strikes. Gilgit-Baltistan remains one of the hardest-hit areas, where flash floods, landslides and mudflows have caused widespread destruction. Disaster management authorities reported damage to 184 houses, the destruction of nine bridges and nearly eight kilometres of roads, while dozens of disaster incidents have been recorded across the region. The Pakistan Meteorological Department has warned that the approaching weather system could trigger widespread heavy rainfall, urban flooding, flash floods and rising river levels in Islamabad, Punjab, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Azad Jammu and Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan. Authorities say emergency response teams have been placed on alert as efforts continue to protect lives, infrastructure and communities during the ongoing monsoon season.

    Questions mount over funding as violence mars London Kashmir protest

    A protest held in central London in the name of solidarity with Kashmir has come under scrutiny following allegations over its funding and organisation, while reports of violence against a senior journalist have further fuelled controversy surrounding the demonstration. According to claims circulating among sections of the British Pakistani and Kashmiri community, around 50 coaches were arranged to transport participants from Bradford, Manchester and Birmingham to London.

Allegations circulating on social media have also suggested that foreign elements including Indian agencies may have supported the protests through there frontmen’s Some members of the community further claimed that the number of British Pakistanis and Azad Kashmiris attending the protest was lower than expected, while participants from other communities appeared more visible. The demonstration was overshadowed by the alleged assault on senior Pakistani journalist Murtaza Ali Shah while he was covering the protest. Reports of the incident have drawn concern from journalists and media organisations, with calls for those responsible to be identified and held accountable. Witnesses also alleged that some protesters behaved aggressively towards members of the media, raising concerns about press freedom and the safety of journalists covering public demonstrations.

    Frankfurt airport worker dies in rare malaria outb…

    A worker at Frankfurt Airport has died after contracting malaria during a rare outbreak that has now infected six employees at Germany’s busiest airport, with health officials saying mosquitoes likely arrived on an incoming flight and spread the disease among ground staff. The remaining five infected workers are currently receiving medical treatment, according to a spokesperson for Fraport, the company that operates the airport. Officials have installed mosquito traps around the airport grounds, and any insects captured will undergo laboratory analysis to determine their species and point of origin. The Fraport spokesperson confirmed to the BBC that one employee died as a result of the infection, and said the company has shared detailed information with all staff members while urging anyone experiencing symptoms to see a doctor promptly. Reports in July indicated the outbreak initially involved four infected workers. The Robert Koch Institute, a German federal agency responsible for disease control and public health research, said at the time that the four employees became ill between July 4 and July 6, and that mosquitoes carrying the disease had entered the country aboard an aircraft. According to the institute, malaria cases in Germany almost always involve long haul travelers who contracted the disease while visiting regions where malaria remains endemic, making transmission within a German airport an unusual occurrence. The institute noted in its epidemiological bulletin that the absence of a travel history in such cases can delay diagnosis, and that a delayed diagnosis raises the risk of a more severe illness. The institute also said the last documented case of airport acquired malaria in Germany occurred in 2023, also at Frankfurt Airport. The Frankfurt Public Health Department is leading the investigation into the current outbreak. According to the World Health Organization, malaria spreads through the bites of certain mosquito species and occurs predominantly in tropical regions. The disease results from a parasite rather than direct person to person transmission, and while it remains both preventable and curable, symptoms can range from mild to life threatening depending on how quickly treatment begins. The airport has stepped up surveillance measures following the outbreak, and health authorities continue monitoring the situation as they work to determine exactly how the mosquitoes entered the facility and whether additional cases might emerge among airport staff or travelers who passed through the terminal during the affected period.
