NEW YORK (Herald de Paris) - Stella McCartney, daughter of Sir Paul and the late Linda McCartney, dropped by Barneys on a rainy Cinco de Mayo Tuesday afternoon. After rocking Monday nights Met Gala, the designer was in high spirits to answer some questions from fans and famed Barneys Creative Director Simon Doonan at her trunk show.
I happened to accidentally crash the fun events while I was shooting Barneys’ latest display, just in time to ride the elevator with Stella to the 6th floor. A large crowd of fans and fashionistas greeted her with cheers as we got off together. Barneys Creative Director Simon Doonan sat with Stella and began asking her about everything from what it was like growing up green, “It wasn’t fashionable back then, but I’m glad people are doing something now, which better than nothing,” to if she can carry a tune, “I can’t say I’m good or bad, but I can carry a note,” and what gets her creative juices flowing, “Vodka and Tonic.”
Here are some of my favorite Q+A highlights between the fabulous fashion duo.
Simon: “What’s your fixation with the jumpsuit?”
Stella: “I wore one to the Met last night, a friend had to take me in and out of it whenever I had to go to the bathroom. But honestly, I love how effortless they are, liberating, knitted, and freeing. Last season I was all about the tailored look, for spring it’s more knitted. I love them because they take me back to my childhood and how a woman doesn’t have to think too much when you put one on. No “does this top go with this bottom moments?’”
