The best and worst in fashion this week: Luxury stickers, Dolce & Gabbana and novelty Christmas jumpers
What we love, we're buying and we're not sure about
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.We love… Stick ’em up
Remember the joy of a fresh pack of stickers? Anya Hindmarch and Charlotte Stockdale must – they’ve created luxury versions to personalise whatever you want with cartoonish doodles.

We’re not sure about… Merry Grinch-mas
The Audit is all for getting into the Christmas spirit – bring on the Baileys, hic! But the fact that sweating in a novelty jumper of itchy acrylic is pretty much compulsory now, brings out our inner Ebenezer. Bah humbug!
We’re buying… here comes the sun
The deep dark months of winter seem to be stretching out endlessly from here, and most of us rely on a light dusting of bronzer to fake a healthy glow. And Dolce & Gabbana’s special edition leopard-print packaging will no doubt perk you up further.

We can’t wait for… A shoe in
If you can identify a Manolo at 20 paces, mark your diary now. The V&A’s summer exhibition, Shoes: Pleasure and Pain, will display 200 shoes from around the globe from Ancient Egypt to more modern creations.

We’re visiting… Tick tock shop
If you can’t get to the Alps this Christmas, let IWC Schaffhausen bring them to you. The Swiss watch brand is opening a store on Bond Street this Friday, with a festive lounge where you can linger over a timepiece, warm yourself by the fire and have a restorative mulled wine.
