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.

Women's Wear Daily reports that French designer Roland Mouret is preparing to present his first men's range next year.

According to the trade paper, the collection will comprise 15 suits and separates, priced from around $1,600 to $3,800.

Talking to WWD about the reasons behind the line, he said: "There [was] a moment in my life that I didn't find at all what I really wanted to wear.

"It may be pretentious, but I wanted to have texture, the right shoulder line, I wanted to find a suit where I don't feel like a business man inside it."

Buyers say that Mouret's women's wear still proves one of the most popular among shoppers, which is probably due to the designer's universally chic design aesthetic: his best-known dress, the 'Galaxy,' is the outfit that reportedly scored the most celebrity appearances on the red carpet.
