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.

WHAT to buy the billionaire, the man of impeccable taste, the man who has everything? These questions have been troubling fashion's great and good over the last few weeks, poor dears, as they contemplated what to give Giorgio Armani for his 60th birthday.

In the end, all the New York retailing giants, who have been selling Armani very nicely thank you for years, got together and plumped for a silver antique art deco desk lamp, designed by Ruhlman.

They couldn't go wrong - he is Mr Armani's favourite designer.

What, one wonders, did Gabriella Forte - for years at Giorgio's right hand until she departed to sit at Calvin Klein's - give her old boss?

A pair of Calvins?
