Plan C Spring 2026: Vacation Clothes to Wear Again and Again
Carolina Castiglioni has found a new way to deliver the effortless chic her Plan C brand is known for. The label has carved out a niche of loyal customers with its intriguing mix of workwear, tailoring and sporty references that zhuzh up everyday dressing. But for spring 2026 Castiglioni broke free from the urban landscape and had her Plan C tribe take some time off — be it at the seaside or in the mountains. The vacation theme magnified the laid-back elegance of Castiglioni's clothes, making the case for covetable pieces to pack but also to wear again and again, even after returning to one's daily routine in the city.

Some key looks were shared between women and men, including relaxed suits, cool pajama sets with contrasting piping and drawstrings, and zippered nylon anoraks letting lace slipdresses or paneled Bermuda shorts peek from underneath. Crinkled textures and asymmetric details amplified the nonchalant vibe, as seen on gauzy frocks in buttery shades, as well as a fluid long dress rendered in vibrant red or cut from a floral-printed silk fabric with a glossy effect, which was haphazardly gathered on its upper part. Elsewhere, ruffles running down striped shirts or viscose sets and knits playing with transparencies infused delicacy with their pastel color combinations; padded jackets in papery textures came with matching sequined-embellished skirts; while the simple lines of a leather jacket were elevated by a flower intarsia on the back. Those hoping to bring a Plan C souvenir back from the holidays can opt for an easy-peasy T-shirt printed with an original artwork by Castiglioni. It depicted a geometric vase with flowers, teasing the launch of the brand's homeware collection developed with Belgian design label Serax.

Plan C Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear Collection
Carolina Castiglioni reached back to childhood memories of villeggiatura at Forte dei Marmi—the manicured Tuscan beach haven she's frequented since cradle days—to give Plan C's new collection a breeze of laid-back nostalgia. But don't expect misty-eyed romanticism; her style skews boyish over frilly, grounded in functionality and sharpened with an artsy, utilitarian edge. 'I wanted to go easy and pop,' she said. Slouchy unisex pajama sets with contrast piping hinted at the de facto summer uniform of the Castiglionis. Whimsy tempered the practical: a crisp white poplin dress came low-waisted and puffed at the sleeves with a wink to rugby; a crinkled nylon anorak was elongated into a dress, and tossed over a lace-trimmed slip. A leather bomber leaned romantic, revealing a flower intarsia blooming at the back; a silky skirt suit was subtly padded to preserve its paper-doll silhouette, while tiny floral crowns danced across a billowing, transparent garden dress. In a sweet nod to the raffia totes her grandmother once lugged to the beach, Castiglioni crafted petite crocheted pouches and baskets, while necklace pendants took the shape of toy sailboats and paddle boats—nautical memorabilia à la Plan C. On the same playful wavelength, T-shirts bore a painting of a flower vase she made, a teaser for an upcoming homeware collaboration with Belgian design label Serax. And there's more on the horizon: with Plan C leveling up, the brand is setting down roots; its first Milan store is set to open soon.

Murder charge after man spikes GF's drink with abortion drug
A man has been charged with capital murder after allegedly lacing his girlfriend's drink with an abortion drug at a coffee shop, because she refused to terminate her pregnancy. Detectives in the US state of Texas began an investigation into allegations made against Justin Anthony Banta after his girlfriend made a complaint to police following a miscarriage. Mr Banta was arrested and charged with murdering the unborn child after investigators felt they had gathered enough evidence to prove he poured the abortion drug, Plan C, into his former partner's a cup of coffee while meeting at a local store. The woman, whose name has not been released, was unaware of his actions, but later became suspicious after she experienced heavy bleeding soon after the meeting and had to rush to an urgent care facility. Days after her hospital visit the woman lost the baby, which doctors had described as being in perfect health, to a miscarriage. Prior to the incident, Mr Banta reportedly offered to provide money for the woman to have an abortion, which she refused, saying she wished to have the baby. A police statement said Mr Banta's former girlfriend was around six weeks pregnant. During a checkup with her doctor, she was told the baby had 'a strong heartbeat' and vital signs, according to the statement. 'Later that same day, the victim reported she met Banta at a coffee shop ... where she expressed her suspicion that Banta had secretly added abortion-inducing pills to her drink without her knowledge or permission,' the Parker County Sheriff's Office said. The woman also reportedly told police Mr Banta proposed they purchase some Plan C abortion drug online as he tried in vain to convince here to terminate the pregnancy. Mr Banta who was working in IT for the US Department of Justice at the time, is alleged to have accessed his phone remotely and performed a 'reset' following the events. He has been subsequently been charged with tampering with physical evidence. The state of Texas introduced a law in 2022 that carries civil and criminal penalties for those who perform abortions and has some of the strictest laws in the US around abortion. A law in 2021 also bans the termination of pregnancies after a baby's heartbeat is detected, but does make exceptions for medical emergencies.

Beveridge finds new tricks to preserve old Dog
Western Bulldogs coach Luke Beveridge hopes enacting his Plan C for Tom Liberatore will play a role in extending the club great's AFL career beyond this season. Liberatore, 33, made his name as a hard-as-nails midfielder and has spent stints across half-forward as the Bulldogs' engine room evolves. A third role is also in play for Liberatore - a 2016 premiership on-baller - who featured in defence during the Dogs' last-start defeat to Hawthorn. Ahead of a clash with St Kilda on Thursday night, Beveridge indicated he will consider deploying Liberatore in the back half more often in a bid to preserve the 246-game stalwart. "You've all collectively, like us, garnered a huge amount of respect for Tom with his tenacity and the way he plays the game," Beveridge said. "When you think of the coalface and how hard it is - sometimes I refer to it as 'the octagon' - you can't expect a player like Tom, who plays the way he does, to do it for as long as he does all the time. "So we're looking to lighten his load a little bit and looking for another layer for Tom. "We're hoping that his (playing) future goes beyond this year." Beveridge said Liberatore was receptive to the idea of playing in defence, and the coach felt it would add flexibility to the Bulldogs' line-up. It comes with former defender Ed Richards, recruit Matt Kennedy and emerging star Joel Freijah reshaping the midfield unit under the guidance of Liberatore and skipper Marcus Bontempelli. "You know there's going to be integrity in Tom's defensive game and it all sort of makes sense without diminishing his importance as an inside mid," Beveridge said. "His priority one is still as a contest and stoppage player, but we might explore that more here and there. "My reassurance to him was that it's just a layer and maybe a Plan C - because the Plan B' is really for him to play a little bit of forward time as well." The Bulldogs (6-6) will start warm favourites against St Kilda (5-7), despite Ross Lyon's side enjoying a surprise last-start victory over Melbourne before their mid-season bye. Key forward Sam Darcy has been cleared to return from a knee injury to add further firepower to the Dogs' attack.
