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.JW Anderson is one of the most sought-after fashion labels in the industry, but with high demand and even higher price tags, its clothes remain aspirational for most shoppers.
That was, until its namesake designer, Jonathan Anderson, decided to collaborate with high street retailer, Uniqlo in 2017, resulting in a 34-piece collection that paid homage to the brand’s sophisticated, nostalgic and knit-heavy aesthetic, but with more affordable price tags.
Unsurprisingly, the collaboration was a huge commercial success, with pieces selling out within hours.
Now, JW Anderson x Uniqlo has launched its third collection, and it might just be the best one yet.
For spring/summer 2019, Anderson has put his whimsical nautical spin on heritage British staples, with women’s trench coats and men’s rugby shirts taking centre stage.
There’s also plenty of options for relaxed springtime workwear too, think three-quarter puff-sleeved blouses and paisley maxi dresses for women, and striped blazers and T-shirts for men.
And for when we finally reach warmer climes, there are colourful tank tops, reversible bucket hats and floral flared shorts, all of which would go down a storm at a summer BBQ.
Prices range from £12.90 to £149.
The collection is available in select Uniqlo stores and online now.
