Stella McCartney Dancewear

THE Stella McCartney name has certainly had its fair share of exposure, thanks to her best-selling collection for Target stores here and internationally.

But one big fashion success does not a fashion business make, so the Brit-born designer has just unveiled her latest fashion foray for Australia: a dance wear collection with Adidas.

"I am so proud that this collaboration continues to grow with the introduction of `dance' as the highlight within the gym category this season,'' she says.

McCartney has been designing a gym collection for the sporty label for six seasons to fuse the sports savvy of Adidas with some Stella runway style.

The dance collection, which will be unveiled in the Martin Browne art gallery in Potts Point next Thursday, focuses on layering.

Her designs use silk-like fabrics and delicate details on tights, leotard and wraps and even a dance shoe with chunky laces.

Stella snubbed on eBay What? Why?

Vivienne Oakley March 24, 2007 11:00pm
STELLA McCartney's clothing line may have been a hit for Target, but potential profiteers have had a reality check on internet auction site eBay.
Target Carindale's Nicole Bearer said many people had bought McCartney lines "in masses" without trying the clothes on.
"We've had a lot returned since then because a lot of the customers found the sizing was really big."
*******~*******
Some a brainless people. They never thought about the consequences. It sure is a pity! Now, OZ’s what are you going to do with the clothes?

Tommy Hilfiger To Go Fur-Free

  • Stella McCartney states: "I totally disagree with any electrocuted animals on people's backs," Britain's Stella McCartney told reporters after her fur-free ready-to-wear show on Thursday, in which she presented floating woollen cardigans and cashmere tops. Her collection of knitted overalls and big-hooded anoraks worn with mini skirts struck a contrast to the range of fur-collared coats Lacroix and Valentino presented on Wednesday. A naked protester jumped onto Lacroix's catwalk, showing her back with the crossed out word "fur" on it to photographers before being dragged away by security guards. Protesters had also tried to interrupt Valentino's show earlier. McCartney, the daughter of former Beatle Paul, said there were enough alternatives to fur.

Stella McCartney: She says, "In many ways, this industry is truly ugly and deeply shallow. Don't get me wrong: I'm no angel, but I do always try to ensure that anything I put my name to is carried out with an ethical awareness.

"And I'm proud to be able to say with 100 per cent that not one single animal product is used to create any one of my designs."

-"Her late mother the Lovely Linda was an ardent supporter of animal rights."-
