Stella McCartney denim expansion

British designer Stella McCartney is expanding her ready-to-wear denim line, starting with the Spring 2014 collection. McCartney is adding 10 new styles in 20 different washes, including colors and prints, in various cuts. Some pieces are made solely of organic cotton in Italy, which is high quality alternative for the designer who famously boycotts the use of leather in the production of her collections.

Washes including over dyed, faded and dégradé come in classic shades of indigo, white, grey and black. The spring palette consists of rose, lipstick and chamomile. Prints include black and white heart print and all black subtle leopard. As for the cut, expect to see skinny, boyfriend and flare style jeans, along with low, medium and high rises.

Pieces in the collection will range between $350 ~ $595 and will be available {this November} in all 25 Stella McCartney stores as well as in multi-brand retailers across the world.
