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.

This year's H&M's eagerly anticipated designer collaboration with French fashion house Balmain lands tomorrow morning (finally) and the fashion world seems to be pretty exicted about it.

With countless teasers on social media, followed by the revelation of the full collection and the (rather disappointing for many) price list; then the campaign featuring Kendall Jenner, Gigi Hadid and Jourdan Dunn; a star-studded fashion show; and some sort of music video featuring the models wearing the items, in which Olivier Rousteing himself appears as the man orchestrating it all from a glassed booth.

Balmain for H&M will be available to shop from 9am on Thursday 5 November worldwide. We've given you pretty much everything you need to know about it, but what are our picks?

The collection is expensive, so we've narrowed it to top 10 pieces from the womenswear range. It wasn't easy, but these selection features some items that are very similar to Balmain's mainline, and we've got our eyes in a embroidered jacket from the men's collection, too.
