TOD Studios has officially announced production on Breathless, its latest Turkish drama, already generating significant anticipation for its intense storyline and star-studded cast. Set in the sleek yet ruthless world of high finance, the series explores the emotional cost of ambition and the quiet devastation of unresolved love.

The narrative, steeped in introspection and loss, echoes the show's tagline: 'True love sometimes lives only in one person's memory.'

Hats on! A milliner talks Ascot's most important accessory
At her London studio, Merve Bayindir carefully glues on dried flowers onto a pale pink saucer hat. Nearby, an array of other colourful headpieces are on display. The Turkish-born milliner has been busy making hats for guests attending the annual Royal Ascot racing event, where hoheadwear is a must. "It is the biggest runway. It's the Oscars. It's the Golden is what it is for because you can't see that many amazing hats in one spot at the same time for a week," she told the media. The horse-racing event, held in Ascot just outside London, kicks off on June 17 for five days. It has become as much known for the colourful fashion as for the sport. Detail is seen on a bespoke hat created by the milliner Merve Bayindir. Its various enclosures have different dress codes - the strictest is for the royal enclosure. "You have to have minimum ten centimetres of diametre on a hat," Bayindir said. "So (for) the ladies in royal enclosure, we always say make sure that your hat is not a fascinator," she added, referring to elaborate, decorative headpieces, often fixed on a band or clip. For the Queen Anne and village enclosures, hats, headpieces or fascinators are allowed. In terms of colours, Bayindir said designs in pale pink and blue were annual staples, with fuchsia, sage green and lilac also proving popular lately. As for size, the bigger the better. Bespoke milliner Merve Bayindir reacts whilst sitting amongst recent headwear creations. Photo Reuters "It doesn't matter who you are, you can be the star and take that chance and be outrageous," she said. "Royal Ascot itself has a very big personality. So you need to sort of support that big personality and be part of it if you want to be really enjoying the environment." Reuters
