The Visionary: Stella McCartney
With six seasons of success under the Adidas/McCartney belt, it’s clear that the combo of athletics and high-fashion can yield something spectacular. At Chloe and later at her own signature line, McCartney has always pushed the limits of woman’s ready-to-wear. Oversized and irregularly shaped knits that play with proportion and silhouette in new ways have become a McCartney trademark. And with Adidas, she continues to experiment with functional, gym-friendly fabrics that really do translate seamlessly to the street. The team’s latest collection, Gym Dance, continues the connection between style and sports. “It’s about soft fluid materials with a focus on layering, mixed up with funky pieces, oversized tees, and classic leggings,” says McCartney. From studio to street to suitcase, McCartney has proven that she sees the big picture.
