Stella world
Selfridges will be giving Stella McCartney
a lot more floor space than usual next month. From Feb. 6 to Feb. 20, the Oxford Street store
will host "The World of Stella," showcasing the designer's complete
clothing and beauty lines — and product collaborations — in different
locations. A pop-up shop filled with the Adidas by Stella McCartney clothing
line — including the designer's new women's golf range — will open on the
store's ground floor. On the third floor, McCartney's new lingerie line will
launch for spring. Meanwhile, McCartney's redesigned shop-in-shop in the
Superbrands area, on the store's second floor, will carry the designer's
mainline spring collection, while her jeans line — in collaboration with Notify
— will be sold in the contemporary denim section.
Caricature artists will be on hand to draw
customers' portraits throughout the two weeks, and a one-man band commissioned
by McCartney will play. The designer will also install a vintage photo-booth on
Selfridges' second floor, in which customers can take a shot of themselves for
1 pound, which will be donated to the Red Cross. McCartney will make a personal
appearance during London Fashion Week on Feb. 13.
