FASHION / Out Siders
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.SO FAR this year, fashion editors have exhorted their readers to celebrate the return of the short, short skirt. You've seen it in Vogue, you've seen it on these pages, too. But while teeny-weeny skirts and stilettos and white socks are all very well if you're a spindly 18-year-old who wants to look like Lolita, other people may be slightly less keen. Apart from anything else, it's still a bit chilly to be exposing vast expanses of leg. But do not despair: as these pictures show, there are some long, warm clothes to be found - battered second-hand sheepskin and comfortable suede and sensible woollies. So you can look romantically Prussian and keep your knees warm in February gales.
