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.

As far as collaborations go the pairing of shoe designer Charlotte Olympia and lingerie label Agent Provocateur is a match made in fashion heaven.

Both labels are known for their distinctly retro take on contemporary styles and it's no surprise that this new collection is more of the same.

Inspired by the glory days of Hollywood glamour, the capsule collection is made up of three lingerie sets, and of course three shoe styles.

The iconic Charlotte's Web is incorporated into luxury French embroidery on the lingerie, finished with spider jewels, whilst the Purrfect Knickers feature the iconic Charlotte Olympia kitty.

"I love the playful and seductive allure Agent Provocateur evokes, which complements our shared visions and feminine brand sensibilities. It was a pleasure to design my first lingerie collection with Sarah [Shotton - Creative Director of Agent Provocateur]; we both wanted to create a beautiful and timleess collection that champions the signature design features of the two brands." Explains Charlotte Olympia Dellal, Creative Director and CEO of Charlotte Olympia.

This isn't the first collaboration between the two brands, back in 2012 on a collection of shoes, but this is Olympia's first foray into lingerie.

The capsule collection will be available to buy from January 18th at Charlotte Olympia and Agent Provocateur stores as well as online at net-a-porter.com.
