Stella McCartney Puts Provocative Twist on the 'Open Office' at Paris Fashion Week

Office Hours to Power Plays

The collection was a study in contrasts – masculine and feminine, professional and personal, control and abandon. Models wove between desks, reinforcing McCartney's belief that a woman shouldn't have to choose between power and pleasure. The setting emphasized fluidity, how a wardrobe must shift throughout the day, adapting to different versions of the same woman.

McCartney's commitment to sustainability remained central, with 96% of the collection crafted from conscious materials. Innovations like recycled silk, organic cotton, and forest-friendly viscose underscored her mission to prove that desirability and ethics are not mutually exclusive.
