About the Item
For her eponymous brand's second collection for Fall/Winter 2002, British Stella McCartney designed this airy layered silk-chiffon empire-waist cap-sleeve rose-color pullover blouse, which was a creative contemporary take on French Napoleon-period dresses from the late-18th Century. Fastening with two sets of drawstring rolled-silk spaghetti-strand ties, the upper ribbons adjust the width of the hand-cut raw-edged ruffled neckline, which can narrow the plunging v-neck keyhole at the decolletage--if not left untied. The longer ribbons below, whose ends are weighted to hang taut with shiny silver-bead appliques, cinch the empire waist with a tied bow. One of those appliques has a bale at its end that enables personalization with the attachment of your own charm.
The remaining brand label notes "Made In Italy". While the size and care tags were removed due to the sheerness of the tunic blouse, it is most likely an IT 42, which will also suit a larger or smaller size as practically the only restriction is at the peplum skirt hem.

StellaMcCartney 2003 Runway SilkSatinPrint ZipJacket or OffShoulder Bubble Dress
By Stella McCartney
Located in Chicago, IL
Arguable the most significant design in the Stella McCartney Spring/Summer 2003 collection--since our versatile garment debuted in different colors on the runway and was worn by the British designer to take her fashion-show bow--this pink-printed dark-grey silk-blend zip-front bubble-shaped mini dress with white-satin stripes and pink piping was a favorite of the show's Vogue critic and her father Beatles co-founder Paul McCarthy.
Vogue wrote: "Her hippest new idea came in the form of puffy satin bombers--she transformed one, a fusion of sport and chinoiserie print, into an off-the-shoulder bubble dress. McCartney is so into the glam-bomber idea, in fact, that she bounded onto the runway wearing a black version herself."
The garment's voluminous batwing sleeves with stretch-cotton ribbed neckline and hem, plus custom golden-charm two-way zipper, enable it to have different necklines and lengths to convert to a shorter draping bomber jacket.
Notably, the versatile piece that is subtly printed with mock-Beatles lyrics seems to have been the first tribute fashion-design that McCartney created to reference her father. Prior, she had credited her stylish mother Linda for instilling her with a love of fashion and inspiration for her initial namesake collections, which followed her first commercial collections with Phoebe Philo for Chloe.
For background, when McCartney was a young girl in 1978, the mock-rock band The Rutles parodied a Beatles song, which was recorded by EMI as "Ging, Gang, Goolie". Given its lyrics, the chinoiserie-style dragon motifs were substituted by McCartney with bird skeletons...
