Stella McCartney and celebrated Japanese artist Hajime Sorayama have joined forces on a capsule.
December 6, 2023
The Stella McCartney + Sorayama capsule collection blends shared codes of desire, design and technology and marks the second collaboration between the two long-time friends. The collection uses fashion and art to communicate messages of sustainability and powerful sensuality to a rising generation. In addition to the artworks selected by Sorayama, he created a new piece for the capsule: a Vitruvian Woman in his singular ‘superrealism’ style, reimagined with Stella’s face.
The Stella McCartney + Sorayama capsule platforms a range of works by the Japanese artist – comprising silver strawberries, ‘Platinum Dream’ slogans and his signature Sexy Robots. It is woven with the energy of their decades-long relationship – one that spans companionship, collecting and creative collaboration.
“I came across Sorayama’s work in the late 90s when I was living in Paris and was absolutely mesmerised by its cheeky sensuality and airbrushed quality. I met with him when I was next in Japan; we have been friends and I have been collecting his art ever since,” Stella McCartney
Genderless, ageless and effortless Stella staples become a wearable canvas for Sorayama’s art, rendered in sharp detail on ready-to-wear pieces crafted from 100% conscious materials. Key items include varsity jackets made using NONA Source repurposed deadstock fabrics, roomy Savile Row tailoring in responsibly sourced wool, Platinum Dream organic cotton denim sets.
