Harambee Stars Forward Faces Uncertain Future as Iranian Club Wants Him Out Soon
The Kenyan striker looks to have just over two weeks left before he starts looking for a new club as his current team is reportedly not interested in retaining his services.
The dress featured knotted bands at the bodice and a voluminous bow at the back that extended into a dramatic train. Beneath it, a lavender lace bodice peeked through, its floral pattern adding a delicate contrast to the bold silhouette.
Accessories were anything but understated. Richardson adorned herself with silver bedazzled heart earrings, a faux-pearl bracelet with a dangling heart charm, and chunky statement rings—all by Alex Moss.
Her beauty choices added another layer of artistry. Her long, mermaid-like hair was styled with tiny yellow and white bows scattered throughout, complementing the softness of her gown. On her face, she wore smoky lavender eyeshadow, pink blush dusted with glitter, and shimmery lip gloss that caught the light with every smile.
Still, it was her nails that stole the spotlight. “My nails, for sure,” she once said when asked about her top beauty priority as per Harpers Bazaar.

Ex-Bayern Munich and Man United Star Explains Why Benni McCarthy Must Succeed with Harambee Stars
Former Bayern Munich and Manchester United midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger has given reasons why Harambee Stars coach Benni McCarthy should bring success to Kenya.
On Monday night, she proved just why—her pointy, candy-colored nails were adorned with miniature floral designs that looked like sugary candy rosettes, a playful and personal finishing touch to the overall look.
This is not Richardson’s first Met Gala. She made her debut in 2021 during the “In America: A Lexicon of Fashion” theme, wearing a motorcore-inspired outfit with a red leather bodice and a fringe-heavy black leather skirt. But after years of focusing on her athletic career—and collecting accolades—Richardson’s return to fashion’s biggest night was both triumphant and celebratory.
In 2023, she set the world championship record in the 100-meter dash. Just a year later, she claimed a silver medal at the Paris Olympics, proving she’s still one of the fastest women alive. With her first beauty partnership launched in 2024 with Olay, Richardson is expanding her reach beyond the track.
Of her love for makeup, she once shared, “I definitely like to intensify my eyes to make my eyes pop and [I like to have] a nice [lip] gloss.”
That combination, along with her signature nail art, she said, “intensifies the confidence that I already have.”
