Stella McCartney's Spring/Summer 2013 collection was presented at none other than Paris' Fashion Week. The assortment of orange, green and blue-hued dresses hung loosely on the models, resembling the styles of oversize sack-like frocks.
Slits of delicate transparent fabric ran through the McCartney jumpers and floor-length pieces, largely in line with the coming season's preference for cut-outs and sheer see-through apparel. Loose belts tied many of the ensembles together almost effortlessly.
This no-nonsense approach to fashion favors comfort and sensibility above all else. While related labels have chosen to incorporate revealing slits and skintight pieces, McCartney's Spring/Summer 2013 line has kept it simple and even homely, qualities that are often desired yet rarely found, especially not during the Paris Fashion Week event.
