Stella McCartney's Resort Collection Party Was a Summery Sweet Dream
Stella McCartney skipped the runway for the launch of her Resort 2016 collection, and instead she threw a seriously chic fiesta. New York City's Elizabeth Street Garden was transformed into a Cuban-themed, tropical paradise with models, like Miranda Kerr and Cara Delevingne, joining Stella McCartney on the bloom-filled grounds.
But while the setting and guests were noteworthy enough, what really captured our attention were the beautiful clothes and accessories on display. Models hid amongst the flowers wearing poppy-printed coats and twirled through the grass in ethereal, flowing dresses. Read on to soak in the dreamy affair, because we've got your VIP passes to this secret garden party.
