Fashionistas, it may be time to start raiding your grandpa's closet, because the Stella McCartney Spring 2012 collection demonstrated that relaxed, loose pieces in adorable old man prints are back in style -- as a fashion lover, that's a sentence I never thought I would type.
"Sportswear and lingerie are two worlds that I love," McCartney told critics backstage. "there is something to be said, being a woman in this day and age, for a little ease. I want women to look naturally sexy. I don’t want it to be shouted out."
If anyone knows how to do effortlessly sexy, it's Ms. McCartney. The British designer has a massive celebrity following, and not only that, but she boasts some of the world's biggest names (like Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson, and Madonna) as some of her closest friends.
The Stella McCartney Spring 2012 collection is everything that the designer is known for: fresh, clean, crisp, and modern clothing. What could be better than that?
