The Stella McCartney Spring 2008 Collection for LeSportsac is on sale! Pretty ridic! What’s more ridic is that the line didn’t sell, or really, sell out. (Think Gwen Stefani’s limited edition 2004 L.A.M.B. collection.) I figure it must be the colour combos and print Sir Paul’s daughter chose to do the line in, since Her fall collection is a huge departure from her spring works–all solids, in tame fall-fashion colours–purple (“silence”), black (“night”) and greige (“bark”).

Stella is however still adding a charm to all her bags and carryalls. The spring bunny is now being replaced with a fall deer. (Very Alison Goldfrapp.) And for those who want to hop on the animal bandwagon (I couldn’t help it!) the old bunny backpack is a new deer rucksack–screenprinted perhaps to look less Donnie Darko (Stella’s bunny bag missing facial details; entirely creepy) and maybe more Robert Bateman (all details, illustrated as an artist’s working sketch).

Despite the real-life rendering, I still can’t imagine how the deer rucksack will work. Not even on the runway. Not even on the oilily runway. Am I not haute couture enough? Tell me! I want my idea of the world of fashion to grow. I’m just not sure if I want it to grow into a deer rucksack.

Well, there is definitely one sure way to find out. The next LeSportsac stella’ sale! Take tote! (I’ll stop that now.)

    I’m not big on Stella McCartney, and I’m not big on Sportsac, but together, that is one fantastic bag!
