McCARTNEY AND ZARA MENAGERIE

Stella McCartney and Frances Hodgson’s children’s classic “The Secret Garden”. She called this collection Lady Garden and described it as “made by women and for a range of women” who accept their bodies and live in harmony with the world of Zara and its waste in African countries certainly.

Like Mother Nature in trompe l’oeil McCartney drew inspiration from butterfly and moth wings to create an abstract pattern on a slim-fitting suit. Like a menagerie of bears, owls and sheep in the form of a trippy tie-dye print.
Broderie anglaise flowers sprouted from the fronts of dresses with wide fluted sleeves, in an Art Nouveau spirit, while knitwear was inspired by spider webs and McCartney lingerie collections.
