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.

The hair

Rebecca Gonsalves: Get a grip. Seriously, a kirby grip, and pin back that side fringe.

Hugh Montgomery: Harsh – little wonder she's looking so dubious.

The coat

Rebecca: This collarless coat is gorgeous but teamed with emo-lite too-long sleeves and so many rings, it seems like confused fancy dress.

Hugh: Yes, a combo quite as overdone as her maverick Voc-AL inFLEctions in 'Girls'.

The trousers

Rebecca: I can't tell if this is a pair of palazzo pants or some kind of maxi skirt; either way it shouldn't be worn with pointy red pumps.

Hugh: Paving the way for the inevitable hipster-chintz love affair, we assume.

The bag

Rebecca: There's an 'I'm on my way to somewhere else and just popped in' vibe about this outfit and the handbag seems like a prop that will keep her in character.

Hugh: Another antagonist in the ensemble. This is an outfit at war.
