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.Star photographer Bruce Weber's short film Ain't Nothin' Like The Real Thing kicked off Yves Saint Laurent's men's wear show in Paris January 22.
The black-and-white movie premiered on YouTube and Facebook simultaneously with the launch of the fashion show and is now available on several sites including ysl.com.
Weber's seven-minute film shows male models involved in the presentation of YSL's fall/winter collection, who pose for the camera to the tunes of Marvin Gaye, and includes a special appearance by one of Weber's favorite photographers, Bunny Yeager.
Also this week, amid the trend of fashion labels using films as lookbooks, Pringle Scotland released their short movie starring actress Tilda Swinton, which can be watched here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RkzrpUEwH70.
