Stella McCartney has just released the new Pre-Fall 2023 Collection and it is full of warms tones with nature notes.
Few outfits have received as much attention on social media since the October presentations as the low-slung fitted pants and chain tops Stella McCartney revived from her early-2000s Chloé days. A new generation’s binoculars make the Y2K nostalgia appear fantastic, but nothing quite fills the spot like the genuine thing.
The designer talked about the collection longly with details to its background stories ,“We cannot keep a look in the showroom for 24 hours,” during a video preview of its follow-up pre-fall collection, her spokeswoman remarked. “My daughter, who turns 16 next week, was like, ‘I want this, I want this, I want that,’ which was the best thing. Finally, it was like that! McCartney laughed and sighed in satisfaction, at last, my kid is truly okay with anything.”
It’s a big deal and a wave worth riding to receive the seal of approval from the sophisticated generation that her daughter belongs to. In a collection that refined pieces from across the course of her career, McCartney broadened her self-referential approach this season.
She recalled its origin, saying, “Let’s genuinely give honour to what I do. But everything is being made to be “the perfect one”: the ideal volume and length.”
Her graduate collection-inspired slip dresses, 2000s-cut denim layered with chaps, and the domineering, sensual masculine tailoring that is fundamental to her business were all influenced by the research she used to create Stella-centric imposing blanket coats.
When McCartney initially created those items, she was a lone advocate for sustainability in a sector of the fashion business that would take another two decades to catch on. It feels like something is coming full circle for her in this new world where the Y2K-loving young generations are not just wanting their nostalgia to look nice but to do good, too.
The collection’s guiding principle was demonstrated by McCartney’s brilliant excursions into eco-friendly materials. 94% of the clothing and accessories were made from eco-friendly materials, such as the viscose that she loves for the forests, the regenerate cotton denim, the recycled yarn made from plastic bottles, and the banana peel leather alternative used for the bags and shoes.
It would seem like McCartney is enjoying a nice old-fashioned fashion moment in a time that values awareness and nostalgia equally. She paused after saying, “The future,” to consider her scientific advancements. “You never know, it might actually happen!”
