Laptop to Lapdance is a bold day-to-night wardrobe for the working woman, celebrating her at all stages of her life. A study in masculine and feminine archetypes, it is a journey from the office to going out. The collection is crafted with 96% conscious, 100% cruelty-free materials. Models weave between STELLA CORP desks; an imagined material innovation company pioneering alternatives to exotic skins, with a third edition of the Stella Times in-hand. Key innovations include animal-free snakeskin and ostrich leather alternatives in YATAY M – a mycelium-based vegan innovation, making a bold fashion statement against the use of exotic leathers.

This season’s Stella woman is educated, an entrepreneur, the boss. She is a mother, a sister, a lover. She fights the good fight – for women, for animals, for everyone. She does it all; enjoying every aspect of her working day whilst having fun and being herself at night. Winter 2025 brings the two together, allowing her to express herself through what she wears.
The Winter 2025 collection leans into Stella’s design DNA and heritage – from the lace of her Central Saint Martins graduation show to her Savile Row tutelage under her parents’ tailor, Edward Sexton. Lipstick reds punctuate a neutral palette of khaki earth tones and corporate greys, alongside lead-free crystal and metal embroideries.
The Ryder bag, our new icon, returns in a new tote silhouette – the perfect size for a laptop, able to take you all day to a lapdance at night. The iconic Falabella is seen in everyday-to-evening iterations. A multipocketed re-edition bag is brought into the now in crinkled recycled materials.
An exchange of professional and party codes, power shoulders embolden suiting, knits, draped dresses and tops – modernising the 80s. Tailored jackets nip in at the waist, paired with straight trousers and pencil skirts. A key innovation is Sequinova plant-based sequins on mini dresses, a world first.
A new square-toed family contrasts a masculine loafer with a sensual heel, constructed in cruelty-free takes on traditional and exotic leathers. Stella McCartney x adidas Rasant unisex trainer makes its return to the runway in fresh colourways, rendered in vegan and recycled materials, alongside adidas by Stella McCartney sneakers.
