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.

If food and fashion are your two main passions in life, the dress of your dreams may have just been created.

A follow-up to the ‘Taco Belle’ dress that made waves when it made its debut appearance on Instagram, American costume designer Olivia Mears has now gone one step better and made a pizza dress.

Yes, it’s as amazing as you’re imagining.

Apparently topped with pepperoni, olives, sliced peppers and mushrooms, it’s a colourful dress inspired by what was clearly a delicious pizza.

And of course, a queen wearing such an elegant dress deserves an appropriate throne - one made out of pizza boxes, perhaps.

Unsurprisingly, people are loving the dress.

“Living the dream. You made such a beautiful dress,” one person commented.

“This is incredible,” added another.

“Found my wedding dress,” wrote one bride-to-be.

Unfortunately for those wanting, ahem, a slice of the action, the dress is a one-off creation.

Mears - AKA Avantgeek - originally created the gown to enter Domino’s “Piece of the Pie” contest.

However it’s not her first foodie-inspired dress - back in November, she made her own version of Belle’s iconic dress from Beauty and the Beast by giving it a Mexican twist.

She truly was Taco Belle.
