You wouldn’t have thought there was a problem on the first Monday in May. Stella McCartney — trailblazing sustainable fashion designer, daughter of Sir Paul and Linda, well-known fun time — was slapping Madonna’s bum on the Met Gala steps, which she was attending with her guest Mary J Blige.
Both were visions in white outfits from McCartney’s eponymous label, founded in 2001. The designer, 53, wore a draped, forest-friendly viscose jersey gown and the singer was in a sharp cut, repurposed wool tailored coat — a specialism at the label thanks to McCartney’s training at tailor Tommy Nutter on Savile Row, her first job after leaving Central Saint Martins in 1995.
