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.

Whatever the fashion season, nature has long been a source of inspiration for designers.

A new exhibition at London's Pitzhanger Manor Gallery celebrates the work of designers who have taken their creations back to nature.

‘Second Nature’ explores the influence that animals, plants and the environment have had on the fashion industry over the years. Featuring the work of acclaimed London-based designers such as Roksanda Ilincic, Giles Deacon, Peter Pilotto, Fyodor Golan and Lara Jensen. Incorporating film, illustration and sound as well as textiles and garments, the exhibition presents a collection influenced by our nature.
