Stella McCartney Adds Sunglasses To 2012 Spring/Summer Collection
Written by Vegetarian Star on October 17th, 2011 in Fashion.
Stella McCartney has unveiled her Spring/Summer 2012 fashion collection.
As usual, Stella’s clothing will once again be crafted from animal-friendly and environmentally conscious materials and will also include stylish sunglasses.
While most sunglasses contain plastic that is derived from petroleum, Stella’s designs are made from a more renewable resource.
The collection includes three acetate and two metal frames and contain 54% castor oil seeds.
“The greatest challenge was the amount of time that was spent on research and testing to get the best quality product possible with the highest performance in terms of resistance, while still maintaining the style and finish we always try to achieve,” Stella said.
Stella considers sunglasses to be an essential part of a woman’s style and suggested owning several pairs to complement the outfit or event.
“Women have two sets: a classic pair they’ll have forever, and a more playful pair,” she said. “We’ve added that fun element to the line. ‘My mum had this mad pair with Christmas trees on them that I loved when I was little. Sunglasses are one of the only accessories that can really have a sense of humour. But you walk a fine line between looking like a complete idiot and getting it just right.”
