Stella McCartney Kids Autumn Winter 2022
For Autumn Winter 2022, Stella McCartney Kids embarks on an uplifting journey from the ground up, with girls and boys venturing from the forest to outer space – making animal friends and celebrating Earth’s beauty along the way. The collection features positive statements, an energising palette and playful graphics, integrating prints and silhouettes inspired by ready-to-wear. It is crafted from 88% sustainable fabrics, an exceptional achievement considering its size and diversity.
This season, girls put the ‘fun’ into fungi – from spotted berets to graphic organic cotton t-shirts and corduroy trousers in a tonal, seasonal palette. Sprouting up next are playful flowers, tumbling apples, disco worms and rainbow snails across organic cotton matching sets and recycled outerwear. Friendly deer become dear pals through a wardrobe of forest-friendly viscose dresses and skirts in warm, autumnal hues. Leaving the forest, girls keep going up – way up! A dreamy trip to outer space includes starry organic cotton denim, galactic tie-dye and marbled constellation prints.
Boys begin their adventure with moody woodland scenes, highlighting fir trees and abstract snail motifs across t-shirts, trousers and matching sets. Where girls enjoy a deer wardrobe, boys meet the fox – sporting big smiles and confident attitudes on recycled puffers and capes, organic cotton t-shirts and zip-up hoodies with funny faces. Moving onto the fast-paced highway, boys race with motocross styles: from fiery flame tracksuits and multicoloured helmet jumpers to checkered hoodies and racing graphic t-shirts. Geometric movements celebrate this BMX moment with colour-blocked sketches printed on coordinated sets and organic cotton denim.
This season features Stella Kids’ first-ever festive capsule — the brand’s most sophisticated, elevated offering to date, with girls wearing monogrammed party wear archetypes, bows on chiffon dresses and flowing tops, and velvet, polka-dot dresses. For boys, the wardrobe includes a velvet suit and organic cotton poplin shirts featuring monogramming, contrast directional stripes and bowties.
AW22’s active wear capsule combines ultimate comfort with functionality – featuring fast-drying, technical materials such as Airtex, recycled polyester and organic cotton. Girls enjoy multicoloured graphic floral prints, while boys sport electric bursts of colour-blocked greens and blues on black.
Being windproof, waterproof and breathable, skiwear stands the test of all weathers for maximum comfort at home or on the hill. All snow wear styles are made from quick-drying recycled polyester with a fluorocarbon-free coating – eliminating harmful chemicals and suitable for a variety of winter activities. Bold colours define the collection, with reflective logo taping and chunky prints on thermal underlayers for boys, and neon, colour-blocked snow suits mixed with floral polar fleece sets for girls.
Stellaween styles return to haunt AW22 with a reflective wardrobe that can be seen at night, summoning a spooky, fancy-dress spirit with bat leotards and leggings for girls and funny face pumpkin jumpers, skeleton sets and ghoulish hoodies for boys. This season also brings the gift of cheerful Christmas sustainable viscose angel dresses and organic cotton sweat sets for girls, and unisex smiling snowmen on black fleece.
Inspired by the Stella Shared 4 unisex capsule, a collectible Fantasia wardrobe brings the classic Disney film’s iconography to life for a new generation across conscious clothing and accessories. A vivid, vibrant girls’ wardrobe includes Mickey Mouse and a playful Pegasus on frilled dresses, graphic hoodies and printed sets. For boys, Mickey’s iconic hand is seen on matching sweat sets; he also features graphically in strong rainbow colour blocks on fleece sets, bomber jackets, knitwear and matching trainers.
