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.

The hair

Rebecca Gonsalves: An impressive amount of root-lift on the model's honeyed locks here – perhaps the red carpet traversed a wind tunnel.

Hugh Montgomery: Stately and nonchalant: it's like she's gunning to be a royal godparent or something.

The jewellery

Rebecca: With such a dazzling motif, keeping the rocks that she's rocking to a minimum was a wise move.

Hugh: Yes, indeed. And despite being the star of a much-hyped Christmas advert, we admire her ability to stave off the reindeer earrings for now.

The make-up

Rebecca: The natural look done Hollywood style just adds to the golden girl's glow.

Hugh: Perfect, obviously. Also this is the exact expression she used in 'Transformers: Dark of the Moon', we think.

The dress

Rebecca: The paradox of needing enough Quality Street wrappers to finish your frock, but not being able to eat any. Pray for Rosie.

Hugh: Very Blackpool dance teacher. Who's maybe a medium on weekends. We like.
