Tailoring
During her years as a student at Central Saint Martins, Stella McCartney was tutored in the foundations
of British fashion by iconic Savile Row tailor Edward Sexton – her father’s celebrated suit-maker.
Inspired by her parents’ stage-wear and shared closet, she has continued to build ageless, genderless
and fluid collections around tailoring ever since her runway debut in 2002.
Playing with proportions and a variety of color palettes, Stella crafts fitted double-breasted blazers
cinched with vegan harnesses over explosive, voluminous A-line pants – delivering an experimental
edginess inspired by digital subcultures. Her more classic suits are considered in construction; the
blazers sharply tailored with strong shoulders, the pants pristinely pleated and cut at just the right
ankle length. Strong enough to stand alone but even better together, you can wear each piece
individually or as a pair.
