Stella Nova Spring/Summer 2013
The Collection
Moon Surfing
Stella travels to the Moon. She considers herself to be “Master of the Universe”, and wants to enjoy the view the Moon allows her while drinking peach-colored cherry tea. Spurred by this, the collection is inspired by space suits and moon people. Star-Wars-esque shapes and moon landscapes are seen in the pick of materials, and silhouettes join in to emphasize the theme. We have been working long and hard on signature materials that each have different metallic surfaces, and it all comes together to accentuate the story of travelling through space as well as gives the collection a simple yet modern feel. 
There are pants, dresses and whimsical tops in silver. Evening dresses inspired by space suits, blouses in bendable material, Star Wars jackets and mottled knitted furs, as if they were space creatures in a moonscape. Working with silhouettes has created a language of shapes, which refers to the moon creatures and space suits. Massive cherries on a mottled base, gives a humorous twist that brings the story together.
Stella stands on the Moon, looking upon the Earth, and the colors are inspired by what she sees. Grey, white and silver are the thin layers of clouds embracing the Earth. Different hues of blue and green are the sky, the sea and the pastures. Dusty browns are the mountains and deserts. Mustard fields, lilac bushes and flower meadows, tones that compliment each other and meet to give a refreshing and summerlike feeling. All this create an exciting contrast to the metallically coated materials in the cool blue, silver and white hues of the Universe.
As always, Stella’s world is playful, humorous and filled with contrasts, and this time returns with a clean and modern twist. We are proud to present the spring/summer collection of 2013.
Let Stella’s moon surfing begin…

The Letter
Old, old friend,
I have discovered man – and now I can’t move on until I have seen each and every one.
The Duke of the Highlands has invited me to stalk deer in Scotland, but out of principle, I do not shoot.
I am not afraid to admit that I have come because I am obsessed with men. They are the ones I want to stalk – just to make sure you understand that. For this evening’s grand soiree, I am the sexy lady of the evening. I am the only lady of the evening, the rockabilly lady. Enough said. 
I am on top of the world, if anyone should be in doubt, and I intend to stay here.
My hair is unwashed, I am dressed in tight clothes and my 3D glasses. They allow me to see everything, even that which does not bear the light of day. 
I can also see that you think I am lying.
I dance slowly and effortlessly with the dark Elvis, Steve M and Sean. 
Do you understand my simple wish to possess them?
Can anybody blame me?
However, I want something else. I want something more.
I want to look like them, I want to sing in their deep voices and I want a moustache and the strength to lift heavy objects.
From now on, nobody will ever see me wearing anything but gentlemen’s attire.
I have put on more ties than is becoming, but they go well with the dotted and checked shoes.
I know that you and Bird the Bird will worry, but please be calm. Perhaps I have merely become emancipated. 
When all comes to all, I suppose it’s just that I am
Obsessed with me myself and men.
Love Stella

The Collection


OBSESSED WITH ME MYSELF AND MEN!



Stella Nova’s autumn/winter collection for 2012 is a tribute to men. It’s a collage of different male icons, which together make up the finished picture.
Stella is obsessed with men and pays homage to the masculine universe.
The central theme is a fascination with men’s clothes and the way men dress. Icons like Steve McQueen, Elvis Presley, Sean Connery and James Dean have been important inspirations.
High roll neck tops used in layering, little catalina jackets and tight, checked trousers are reminiscent of the 1950s and a young Elvis. Likewise, the biker jacket, as a symbol of rebellion and youth culture, pays homage to James Dean. Steve McQueen has also been an inspiration, in that his cool, tough male archetype forms the central pivoting point of the collection.
The collection explores themes such as Scottish highlands life with deer stalking, roaring fires and whisky in the glass. This is where Sean Connery comes into the picture. His masculine personality adds to the eclectic, collagey feel. Tweeds and checks of all kinds underline this atmosphere, as do the malted and tobacco hues.
The pipe smoking hippie of the 70s, wearing multi coloured knits, corduroy trousers, checked shirts and brandy coloured shearling, forms another male archetype. The collection also flirts with the old school, preppy look of parka coats, harlequin checks and chunky, felted wool.
Last, but not least, dots of all kinds are included, as well as mixed checks and stripes, to show that icons such as Harlequin and the Clown have also been invited to the ball, and Stella pays tribute to them all with enthusiasm and great fascination.
In contrast with the very masculine universe, there are sexy, little coktail dresses, pencil skirts and long, pleated skirts. Stella is a little ambiguous as to whether she would really rather be a man, and therefore, she cannot quite agree with herself on whether to dress up like a man with a moustache and over-sized, dotted shoes, or whether to put on her tightest dress and her 3D glasses and just enjoy the vision of the men…

The Letter
My dear team captains!
In your places, forward, march! When you hear my whistle, the games will have begun. These are, as you know, the world famous Olympic Games, and everything is at stake. I am the referee, and nothing, absolutely nothing, escapes my eagle eye. I hasten to add, and I shall say this only once – that you must cheat where you can at all costs. Bird the Bird, since you’re so fit and look so good in your figure hugging beetle suit, you will be allowed to judge the 400 meter pole vault for butterflies, as this is your favourite discipline. The beetles and the fireflies will race over the hurdles, and this discipline requires absolute quiet. Reptiles, rhinoceros beetles and all black adders. You must pull yourselves together, and I needn’t say more, for this is serious. I am not normally one to make threats. However, I have to be firm but unfair, and I want to see winners only. I do not tolerate whingeing, and you are all competing for your lives. When we have won, we shall celebrate. In the grain fields under the blue sky, at the invitation of the butterflies. There, we will celebrate ourselves and sip cocktails in every imaginable colour, enjoying the fact that everything is possible.
It will be good, and we are already looking forward to it. Let the games begin!
Your devoted

The Collection
OLYMPIA
The spring/summer collection of 2012 is all about the Olympic Games for butterflies, beetles and reptiles.
Stella is participating as linesman, and she is judging the games, while Bird the Bird is team captain and coach of the fireflies.
The collection includes strong references to the world of sports in terms of details, silhouettes and materials. A lot of garments are washed and garment dyed for a tracksuit feel. Sweat jackets and trousers are brought into the picture, and should be styled with more tailored and fitted pieces in the collection. Old sports cardigans, fitted men’s tennis shorts and a small evening dress with a plissé skirt attached, all add a nostalgic 1930s feel of Olympic Games. The sporty atmosphere adds a boyish vibe, and a suitable contrast to the more feminine styles in the collection.
Butterflies are also a strong source of inspiration. The shape and the colourful wings are translated into pleated flounces and special sleeve cuts, and twisted happy colours are used to play upon this topic. High waisted flares and a little pleated corsage cocktail dress - all pay tribute to the feminine beauty of a butterfly.
Jacquard woven golden fabrics and shiny surfaces are elements taken from the surfaces of beetles and reptiles. Structured shiny fabrics and metallic silver laces are reminiscent of the hard, crispy shell of a beetle. Tights and super fitted styles, like a corsage dress and top with leather inserted details, carry strong references to a beetle. The colour black is important in this universe. It is a masculine colour block that gives an attitude to all the flowery colours. Also, the impact of using different fabrics surfaces is played with, this almost adds different colours to the “blacks” and certainly emphasises the beetle/reptile feeling.
The choice of materials varies between the crispy, structured fabrics for a sculptural expression in contrast with the more draped and fluid qualities.
The colour palette is skewed and playful. These are colours as you would imagine seeing them when watching a flowery grain field on a hot summer’s day, when butterflies are swarming in the blue sky. They are summery, untamed colours, which have not been attuned to each other. Instead, they are meant as quaint and slightly quirky colour splashes, which, at the same time, underline the story of Stella’s wardrobe.
The same goes for the selected prints. There are fireflies in the night, cornflowers in the field, little beetles and lizards, as well as big, billowing flowers. What ties them all together is that they are very feminine and easy to mix with the rest of the collection, whether you prefer the bohemian hippie look or a more clean cut expression.
Stella’s collections are always eclectic, like collages of different influences with a wide range of references. This is what makes Stella who she is, and at the same time, it’s what accentuates the whole idea of her wardrobe.
Please have a look, and may you enjoy Stella’s wardrobe as much as we do.

THE MARRIAGE OF STELLA
My dearest Bird, the bird.
The snow has fallen and I am small and grateful. I want to get married. I wish to make a vow – a vow to be posted in a letter and sent all the way around the world and back again.
I know what you’re thinking. And no, I shall not marry the pretty one, nor the warm one and least of all the clown or the grey one. I will not marry just anyone – You see, I will marry myself. I will promise to have and to hold myself in sickness and in health.
I will promise to be faithful to myself, love myself in tribute to something, the name of which I have forgotten. I will do no more and no less and you shall perform the blessing!! After all, you do know best how these things should be done, used as you are to moving in such circles in and around elevated places… you know the wind and which way it blows.
My wedding band will be tattooed around my finger and in all modesty, I’ll be wearing something old, something new, something borrowed, something blue. I will not wait any longer. I am all fired up! Lend me then your dress of faded rose petals, which suits me so well. I also want to borrow your feathers for my hair and then I’ll wear that stripy cardigan with the diamond buttons over my shoulders….it goes so well with my heavy eyelashes and my belt in love.
Beloved Bird the bird, will you do this for me? Oh, say you will! I have invited everyone, so you must make sure great tears are wept, preferably of silver.
The wedding will be set in the faded stillness of the forest – between the break of dawn and dusk of night. I will arrive, riding the orange red fox and I will lie on forget-me-not and blueberry blue blankets. You must kiss me as I lift up my veil, made from silky moss, whisper mysterious sounds into my ear as only you can do and thus, my promise will be sealed.
We shall all party for days and nights and afterwards I want to be alone a while until I change my mind.
Your devoted
Stella

The Collection
Stella Nova’s autumn/winter collection 2011 is Stella’s wedding celebration. She hosts her marriage to herself and her best friend, Bird the bird, performs the blessing. Stella wears her belt in love and a treasured dress, made from faded rose petals, leant to her by Bird the bird.
The traditional wearing of something old, something new, something borrowed and something blue is the pivotal theme of the entire collection. The ambiguous nature of the word blue has been an inspiration and the idea that blue can mean both blue and melancholy is played upon. The colour blue is a recurrent theme and heavy eyelashes hung with tears of silver also occur in several places.
The washed out and worn out illustrate something borrowed and something old. Mixed materials and graphical matches between colours and prints help to accentuate contrast and represent something new. These opposites are as always essential to Stella Nova’s collections because they express the coming together of the feminine and the masculine, the humorous versus the stringent.
Birds and feathers have again been an inspiration, as these are an important part of Stella’s universe, Bird the bird being, of course, Stella’s best friend.
The colours are soft and washed out to emphasize the feeling of something borrowed and something used. Non-colours like mauve, mouse grey and taupe are strongly represented in the autumn/winter collection as these colours are suitable for the season and also they are easy to mix and match.
Forget-me-not and blueberry blue are together with violets and soft purple delicate feminine colours all easy to play with.
A mix of orange and tawny shades combined with the washed out mossy greens and deer browns have a strong reference to the grand sight of a faded autumn forest as it withers away.
Please have a look and enjoy!

ROCKING STELLA
I, Stella, bear witness. I do so on the noisy days, which wake me from my sleep. I abandon all!
I refuse to drink more tea with geriatric aunts or birds with silly names. I refuse to go on dancing by myself – yes, I intend to dance before a crowd!
I must be worshipped and adored – because today, I am in charge. I’ll kick in any door that has been shut (if you’ll pardon my French, aunt Mayumi, it’s fucking Showtime, in case you hadn’t noticed!) I long for top hats, patent leather clog boots and studded black emerald dresses. Let’s Rock’n’roll and party the night away!
Tonight, you will address me as Mr. Kite and I will present the show: “The Rock’n’roll Theater” – but only to those who dare…
I have cropped my hair short and recovered my old mustache. For the grand opening number, I shall wear the faux leather jumpsuit and my black top hat. Around my neck I’ll wear three ties and my stripy ballerina pumps are tightly laced. It suits me, I know that, and I am happy for a time to be devoured by the hungry glances filling up the room. (The shelves are stocked with flesh tonight!) That’s the point, God damn it! Velvet, the pianist bows and courtesies in her oversized suit, pulling faces.
And Underground, that silly little dog, performs tricks for us in its ridiculous fake fur getup. It spits fireworks while Velvet smokes a cigarette and blows out smoke rings.
The crowd is exultant with delight and people tumble from chairs, breaking their legs, while I keep the cool perspective; the show must go on. The music roars from every corner and won’t bow down to powers high or low – nobody can stand still, not even I, and before long my dancing shoes have sent me over the edge. I am stage diving… right into the arms of a pair of twins in lurex. Lovingly, they pass me on, and I am violently tossed around between embraces of a crazy crowd, discretely dressed in tweed. “We will, we will rock you!” they shout.
And I love it ! Your devoted Mr. Kite, a.k.a

The Collection
ROCK’N’ROLL THEATRE
Stella Nova’s autumn/winter collection of 2010 is a tribute to the theatre, masquerade and to the pleasure of dressing up.
The Theatre Manager will open the show wearing a top hat, a tie and a suit and welcome people to Rock’N’Roll theatre. The Compère introduces an updated “Commedia dellárte” and takes the audience on a fantastic journey of entertainment, pantomime and masquerade. A modern Columbine meets Pierrot in a rock-candy universe and the party is on.
Feminine silhouettes are combined with over-sized key items mixed with masculine references such as ties and rock’n’roll suiting. As always the Stella Nova collections play with a mixture of feminine and masculine silhouettes and materials. This time emphasis is put on the effects of the materials to underline the costume which makes the collection strong and playful.
Bright, shining materials, check patterns in lurex, glitter, sequins on printed silk and shiny, fake fur are just some of the ingredients that characterize the autumn/winter collection of 2010.
Knitwear in different varieties and qualities, stripes and material mix, as well as details such as star studded trim bands are also completing the autumn look, adding an unceremonious and humorous twist. Tweeds and other masculine materials create a sort of nostalgia but are, at the same time, super-trendy on the fashion scene right now. Tight silhouettes, leather, rivets and sculptural sleeves in tight jackets and dresses underline the rock’n’roll universe and give the collection a modern and cool expression.
The color story of this collection can be separated into two different themes. One is cream, soft rose, autumn green and water turquoise. Here dark-emerald black and real jet black are in dramatic contrast to the softer and lighter colors and create a more masculine attitude. The other story has a more feminine vibe, using soft-lilac gray, douche heather and mélange purple. Eccentric lilac blue comes as a fresh breeze, and midnight blue and black create an evening atmosphere. Black plays an important role as it is both cool, chic and has a rock’n’rollish attitude. It comes in many variations – matte, shiny, with sparkling glitter, etc. These different surfaces almost add colors to the blacks and mixed with all the mélange gray tones they become easily accessible and usable for a more casual look.

Feminine silhouettes are combined with over-sized key items mixed with masculine references such as ties and rock’n’roll suiting. As always the Stella Nova collections play with a mixture of feminine and masculine silhouettes and materials. This time emphasis is put on the effects of the materials to underline the costume which makes the collection strong and playful.

Bright, shining materials, check patterns in lurex, glitter, sequins on printed silk and shiny, fake fur are just some of the ingredients that characterize the autumn/winter collection of 2010.

Knitwear in different varieties and qualities, stripes and material mix, as well as details such as star studded trim bands are also completing the autumn look, adding an unceremonious and humorous twist. Tweeds and other masculine materials create a sort of nostalgia but are, at the same time, super-trendy on the fashion scene right now. Tight silhouettes, leather, rivets and sculptural sleeves in tight jackets and dresses underline the rock’n’roll universe and give the collection a modern and cool expression.

The color story of this collection can be separated into two different themes. One is cream, soft rose, autumn green and water turquoise. Here dark-emerald black and real jet black are in dramatic contrast to the softer and lighter colors and create a more masculine attitude. The other story has a more feminine vibe, using soft-lilac gray, douche heather and mélange purple. Eccentric lilac blue comes as a fresh breeze, and midnight blue and black create an evening atmosphere. Black plays an important role as it is both cool, chic and has a rock’n’rollish attitude. It comes in many variations – matte, shiny, with sparkling glitter, etc. These different surfaces almost add colors to the blacks and mixed with all the mélange gray tones they become easily accessible and usable for a more casual look.

#Stella Nova #Autumn/Winter 2010 

Who The Fuck Is Stella?

The Stella Nova Vision is to:

Create a fashion brand that unites the spectacular universe of Stella Nova with successful business.

The Stella Nova Mission is to:

Enrich the consumer by adding small Stella Nova treasures to each design

Stella’s universe:

Bird the Bird is Stella’s best friend. Bird travels with her around the world and Stella shares her innermost thoughts and dreams only with him.

Stella is one of a kind. No-one knows where she lives or what she does. But Stella’s universe stretches far and wide. She moves in and out of a world of imagination and fairytales.

One day she arrives at her wedding, riding a fox, to marry herself. The next day she is a performer in an African travelling circus.

We do know one thing about Stella: Her world is totally devoid of limitations of any kind, and she lives her life accordingly. 

Stella’s life is nothing like ours. Stella exists in a world where reality is fused with imagination. She’s a Pippi Longstocking character in a modern fairytale.

That’s why there are no limitations and nothing is impossible. 

Stella’s wardrobe 

Stella’s wardrobe tells the stories of all her wonderful experiences. Peek into the wardrobe and get a taste of the universe in which she lives. It’s like a treasure chest, filled with her experiences. Maybe you will disappear inside the wardrobe and be transported into Stella’s world?

Stella loves to dress up and adorn herself, but she also loves being ugly. She doesn’t give a damn what other people think of her. She loves clothes and has lots of them. She answers to nobody, but is a law unto herself. She adorns herself gladly with feathers, a tutu and mens’ jackets, which are far too big for her. Fur hats, oversize striped shirts, silk skirts and tight leather leggings which wrinkle around her ankles.

She does her own thing: One day she might turn up dressed like a bird and the next she appears dressed like a man in a suit with a neatly painted moustache. Sometimes she’s a stylish lady and sometimes she is a hot babe in very tight clothes. Sometimes she wears a bird-like mask and sometimes she is dressed from top to toe in dots and large checks.

The Collections 

Each collection has its own special story to tell. Each concept is built on Stella’s letters, in which she describes her thoughts and experiences.  The collections take the letters as their point of departure and interpret them.

The wardrobe is Stella’s wardrobe and the clothes inside it belong to her. There are items in Stella’s collections she calls ‘Stella’s loveliest pieces’. On these specially selected styles hangs a small tag with the text ‘Stella’s loveliest wardrobe’.

All the styles have button bags attached with statements from Stella. A few styles also have statements printed on the inside-collar logo label.

While these statements emphasise the unique history of the clothing, they also indicate that the clothes are specially selected and signed by Stella herself.

As if to tie up the story, a small wardrobe and a bird hang from each design.

 

May you enjoy Stella Nova as much as we do, with love from Stella and her devoted team.

The Collaboration between Stella Nova & Christian Brylle
Creative director and designer Trine Skoller about the campaign:
This time Stella is crazy about men. She is just not quite sure, if she wants to be a man or if she wants to be a woman chasing men. The campaign picture is a result of these thoughts. It is an extension for the base of the collection and a consequence of this.
“As far as I know, we haven’t seen many fashion campaigns with a man in women’s clothing before. Furthermore it is the model himself, who is also the photographer, which is different. I have never met Christian Brylle (model & photographer) face to face, because he lives in New York. I choose to contact him, because I thought he was the right person for our campaign and since then, we have exchanged ideas and thoughts over phone and email, which has created the final result”. 
“I gave Christian rather free limits, to make the picture on the basis of how he senses Stella and her universe. For me, he is the right person, because he has an androgynous look and yet he clearly looks like a man to me”.
The campaign is interesting in several ways - primarily because it reflects thewhole idea of the collection but also because it concerns a contemporary trend, where women looks like men and men looks like women. It also puts question mark to, why we dress up and for who we want to look nice. Do a woman dress up to attract the attention of a man or to impress other women?
The campaign is also sort of a comment to the fashion industry, where you reach for the perfect picture, even though everyone knows, that perfect humans do notexist. Basically it’s not that interesting, making a perfect picture with a pretty model, because everyone can do that. It is almost too easy and do not have much identity and nerve. “I find it more fun to work conceptually with the idea as a controlling factor in the process, and that is how our campaign picture was made”.

The Letter
My flight on the backs of beasts
Dear Aunt Mayumi
I am back again… of all places, I have come to Africa – and I have to ask myself, is Africa my new home?
I was in search of a place where light and darkness meet – indeed, where stripes and spots live side by side and where savage roaring fills the night.
I wanted to find an African circus where dancers perform on the backs of zebras and men match their speed with leopards. Where wives and mistresses walk hand in hand.
For it is hardly possible to open a book these days without reading about such a secret African circus.
Aunt Mayumi, will you believe… clowns in stripy bowtie trousers, silver jackets and miniature shoes, juggled beasts of golden animals. And imagine the circus director had black, curly hair!
All I did was follow the tracks… and suddenly, I was in the middle of the circus ring, where cheeky monkeys swung from vines in trapeze dresses, trimmed with lace. The booming of the drums intensified, as men and women rode in on giraffes, wearing pearl embroidered jackets with low cut backs. They were pleased to see me, that was clear, because they kept calling me by funny names all night.
Suddenly, I was overpowered by intense fatigue and I lay down amongst the ladies sawn in half. The sea lions knew no rest – on the contrary, they ceaselessly juggled their snowballs.
I fell asleep to the sound of mustard yellow tall tales… and it couldn’t have been much better.
Your devoted
Stella

The Collection
Stella Nova’s Spring/Summer collection 2011 is an African Circus.
The circus director makes his entrance, riding his favorite zebra, juggling brightly coloured birds. He is wearing his bowtie trousers, his silver jacket and gigantic shoes.
the collection is feminine and playful, and the meeting between Africa and the world of circus provides the eclectic mood, which always characterizes the collections of Stella Nova.
African prints and colours meet bows, lace and bold stripes. The clown as a symbol is a major inspiratio, and much musing has been done over this character. Bows symbolise the clown, as do bold stripes. Lace and silk dresses are an homage to the circus prinsesses who perform their pirouettes on the backs of stripy zebras. The lady sawn in half, the sea lions, and the circus print on silk all contribute to the atmosphere. Leopard print, zebras and African tribal prints also add to this amience of African plains and the savannah in the sunset.
The general feel of the collection is happy, feminine, sexy and summery. As always, there is a touch of fun and frivolty to underline the idiosyncratic signature of Stella Nova.
the colour scheme is extremely feminine. The colours are douche and washed out like hues that have been sunbleached, with some more saturated shades in between.
grey, blue, pale yellow, mustard yellow and canary yellow mixed with a palette of browns and greens.
Coral, powder purple, lilac and washed out spring green, all feminine shades which radiate summer and sun and which can be mixed and matched depending on mood and occasion.
Please have a look and enjoy!

The Letter
Stella’s Seaquest
I knew it…! I just knew I was in deep water. In the quiet of a pale yellow slumber I dwelt, embraced by seafarers and tracking stars on the celestial dome. Those same stars which I had sketched as a young child. Some were black while others lacked their points, but that didn’t matter to me. I had drawn them to my taste, and if the world around me didn’t care for stars of many colours, occasionally pointless, then that world would have to dream in other ways. I absolutely didn’t care. Stars will be stars, as they were created… by me.
I had worn my dress of silk - in the colours of the parrot - and my treasured heart shaped buttons. I always do when walking on the edge, to show the sea and stars who is in charge. I held the compass in my hand – it let me count the waves.
Captain Ship, the pirate, often winked at me at night, as I used to tell his men tales of the old world and the new. I told them of the ladies of the night, in their long skirts on the docks, the hush of thunder blue sails and pirate songs before the storm. They knew it all before, for they had lain with every girl who wore an anchor around her neck, whose eyes were full of sorrow and whose cardigans were way too big. Yes, they had set their sails in every kind of weather, even when the sea was in an awful mood. They had heard the falsetto singing of the pirates, songs of love and love as if love were “the new black”. Yes, they knew it all before. And they wept like children until I had wiped away each tear – I dried their eyes with just my heart and that stripy scarf I wear so well. That scarf heals every sorrow in the world. It was a present from the neighbour of the sea, who knitted it from mermaid bonnets, fishnets and from locks of hair from drowned sailors.
The ship rocked me gently day and night – year by year. I dreamt of white and pearly grey tattoos, which carried promises of everything there was. One night, the stars whispered in my ear that it was time to go ashore… don’t ask me why. But I dove into the sea and swam until I came upon another world of plenty.
Yours ever,
Stella

The Collection
Sail the Seven Seas in Stella Style
Stella Nova’s Spring/Summer 2010 Collection takes you across the seven seas and revives the child-like spirit of imagination and sense of adventure. Pirates are the fundamental inspiration of this season – either as fanciful imaginary characters or as modern day warriors of the sea dressed in relaxed combat gear.
The female pirate of today plays on masculine and feminine silhouettes with details punched with exaggerated colours and humour. The strongest moments are found in fiercely opposed constructions that are meant to be worn together and charming patchwork and print motifs lend to some much needed comic relief in true Stella Nova fashion.
The wide colour range embodies a slightly matte aesthetic that resemble the effects from salty sea air. Each colour story explores a singular shade with tones from every side of the spectrum. Thunder blue, navy, petrol, violet, and purple are chosen as the ever-changing sea element. White, cream, beige, and taupe reflects the sand while black, ash, grey, and muted metallics mimic the sky at its deepest hours of the night. And the pirate’s best mate influences the collection with splashes of unexpected colour that mirror the feathers of a parrot. Stripes are strewn together in turquoise, pink, brown, and gold while prints come in sorbet pastels and girlish candy stained shades.
Wild women of the sea inspire freedom with voluminous silhouettes found in dresses, draped blouses and a range of hitch stitched and free flowing skirts that graze the thigh and ankle. A slightly sea salt crunch factor is infused in these sheer cotton structures and stretch see-through jersey worn like a second skin is a staple piece for layering. Feminine and masculine elements are combined in strong materials such as leather and stretch suede where slim and tailored shapes are contrasted by dramatic forms with effeminate details like puff sleeves. The look is updated with pieces from the boyfriend’s wardrobe barring strong resemblance to combat attire.
For added romance, lace is converted into relaxed cotton silk and a broderie anglaise pattern is manifested in full dress pieces, fringed details, and inserted applications on knits. Dyed tread is laced together to create an exquisite horizontal striation effect that results in a unique pattern in every piece and a vintage inspired print resembles freeform dazed, scattered etchings. This season the Stella signature star refers to the star-studded dome above the sea at night and is incorporated in various prints. As an added element of surprise, patchwork star appliqués adorn key pieces as details and all-over structures.
