The Fashion Audit: Michael Jackson's costumes, Twilight make-up and Princesse Tam Tam
What we love, we're not sure about, we're buying and can't wait for...
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: Costume dramas
Philip Treacy's Michael Jackson-inspired show was something of a scene stealer at London Fashion Week last month. Now the King of Pop's costumes are on display in all their glory at the Getty Gallery in Westfield Stratford City.
Until 4 November, £10, ticketmaster.co.uk
We're not sure about: Movie make-up
The Twilight franchise, and its accompanying publicity juggernaut, may finally be shuddering to a halt – if not the 50 shades of creatures it spawned – but not before every last opportunity for merchandising has been wrung out. Lo, a vampire-themed make-up collection, popping up in Harrods soon.
We're buying: Princesse Tam Tam
The Parisian lingerie brand was inspired by the Jazz Age film of the same name starring Josephine Baker, so it's only fitting that this fringe-a-like number is available on the boutique label's new e-commerce site alongside chic nightwear and swimwear.
Tutu bra £47, briefs from £33, princessetamtam.co.uk
We can't wait for: What's the story?
Photographer Tim Walker is something of a dream weaver, and this new exhibition not only displays the images he creates for Vogue, Vanity Fair and W but gives a glimpse into his creative process via installations and real-life props too.
Story Teller, from 18 October, free admission, Somerset House, London WC2R 1LA
We're saving up for: Watch out
When looking for inspiration for its new timepiece, it comes as little surprise that Burberry alighted on trench coats and British craftsmanship. The Britain collection features a rounded, octagonal shape and distinctive bolts and is available for men and women.
From £795, burberry.com
