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.

Spring’s imminent arrival means it’s out with the old (winter coats, boots, hats and scarves) and in with the new lightweight layers to see you through the warmer months.

When building or adding to your spring capsule wardrobe, shop for hero pieces that will prop up your wider wardrobe. Enter: Omnes.

Founded in 2020, the label uses sustainable practices and fabrics to create pieces that transcend seasonal trends – think classic occasion-ready dresses, work or play trousers, staple tops and silk skirts that can be dressed up or down.

Better still, nearly all of its clothing costs less than £100 – and the quality speaks for itself, with the brand’s bestselling satin-style dresses frequently securing spots in our try-on reviews (see party dresses, slip dresses and more).

To help curate your own spring capsule wardrobe, we’ve rounded up the pieces from Omnes we’re loving right now, from jersey tops to animal print coats.

Omnes Stella skirt, black: £39, Omnes.com

(Omnes)

A black midi skirt is a versatile addition to any wardrobe and leaves endless styling options. Whether teamed with knee-high boots and a knit in the winter or a vest, trainers and trench coat in the spring, you’ll get your cost-per-wear. Omnes’s take is crafted from a recycled polyester material with a satin shiny finish, bias cut silhouette, midaxi length and flattering high waist. As well as the everyday black finish, the piece is available in white, beige, green and blue, as well as statement zebra or animal print.

Crafted from the brand’s Lenzing lyocell fabric (a sustainably sourced alternative to cotton), the trousers also come in camel and navy finishes. We’ll be styling ours with Adidas sambas and an oversized blazer for a laidback desk to dinner look.

Omnes Riviera mini dress, black: £49, Omnes.com

The ultimate date night dress, Omnes’s take on the LBD has a Nineties feel thanks to the cowel neckline and spaghetti straps. The shorter length is ideal for the warmer months but equally can be paired with tights during winter. Elevated by the lace-up back detailing, the slinky satin finish gives it an expensive look.

An everyday dress that can be jazzed up for the evening, Omnes’s Jaspiya print style has a luxe-looking satin sheen.
