The fashion fight before Tyson Fury throws first punch
Alongside the hype, heated press conferences and razzmatazz that accompany top level boxing, there is the battle to outdo each other in the fashion stakes.
Tyson Fury didn’t get the better of rival Oleksandr Usyk in the ring when they first clashed in May – the Ukrainian winning to unify the heavyweight titles.
But an embroiderer from Cardiff played his part in the battle to look the best, designing the waistband Fury wore during the fight.
As the two heavyweights prepare to square up again in Saudi Arabia, Suliman Khan, 27, describes his journey from family carpet shop to the glitzy world of heavyweight boxing.

What happens to celebrities’ outfits after a red carpet event?
Every time a celebrity poses on a red carpet, countless cameras flash, forever immortalizing their outfit, preserving the hundreds or even thousands of hours it has taken to create.
Sunday night’s Golden Globes were no different, with Zendaya channeling old Hollywood glamor in a saffron Louis Vuitton gown, Angelina Jolie wearing a dazzling crystal chain McQueen dress and Tilda Swinton donning a custom embroidered Chanel jacket.
Online, such red carpet outfits have long afterlives as they are shared around social media, dissected by influencers and journalists alike. But the real-life fate of the garments themselves is less well-publicized. What happens to them after their moment of fame — where do they go and when are they seen again?

What relaxation looks like in one of the world’s hardest working countries
Outfitted with a large film camera and often dressed in athletic wear, Seoul-based photographer Kim Seunggu has spent almost 15 years capturing the essence of what he calls “leisure culture” — vacationing, poolside unwinding and communal gatherings — in contemporary South Korea.
The focus of his ongoing series, “Better Days,” is all the more striking in a country that ranks fourth globally for the longest working hours and where the phenomenon of “gwarosa” (death by overwork) is thought to claim numerous lives annually. In 2023, the South Korean government was forced to abandon plans to increase the maximum working week from 52 to 69 hours amid backlash from Millennial and Gen Z workers. The proposed move was intended to combat the nation’s labor shortage stemming from a declining birth rate and an aging population.
