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

The boots embodied the collection's blend of confidence and playfulness. "Those boots - they grip onto a pole. I think they just do the work for you," McCartney said, laughing. Asked about the fetishistic undertones, she shrugged. "You said it, not me! I mean, Jesus, it's all legal as far as I last checked."

Amid the playful energy, she acknowledged the industry's demands. "We all work really, really, really, really hard," she said. "Like, from when I started to now, it's like, wow, this is a very different industry. And I wanted to kind of celebrate how hard everyone works too."

Before the night was over, she encouraged guests to take a piece of the office set home. "I hope you all took the staplers and the mugs," she joked. "We need those pens."
