We’re all fed up with walking into shops and seeing winter clothes in the middle of summer and vice versa,” said Stella McCartney during a walk-through of her resort collection in London. “This collection is more consumer-friendly. We treated resort as a series of months rather than a season, and there are various fabric weights for different times of the year.” She mixed the whimsical and the sophisticated and toyed with volume and shape: Scribble-print cotton organza trenches morphed into dresses when belted at the waist, and blouses dropped down to the knees thanks to invisible snaps. McCartney played with texture for evening, turning out languid tuxedo suits; curvy dresses with three-dimensional embroidery, and cropped lace jackets with structured shoulders.
