If there was one person we could rely on to integrate The Beatles into fashion and do it justice, our fingers would immediately point to Stella McCartney. As the daughter of Paul McCartney, she carries with her the legacy of her father and of The Beatles' tremendous impact on pop culture and music. So ahead of the launch of Peter Jackson's much anticipated Get Back documentary on November 25, the designer is playing into the hype with a psychedelic and genderless capsule inspired by The Beatles final studio album, Let It Be.
But of course, this is no run of the mill band merch. As expected, the capsule reflects Stella McCartney's hardline and necessary stance on the climate crisis, which means doing everything in our power to minimise our impact on the environment. A perspective that reflects community, the power of people coming together and creating positive change; all things The Beatles stood for as individuals and as a group.

In the capsule you'll find the rich typography and motifs often associated with The Beatles emblazoned across hoodies, track pants, bomber jackets, cardigans, tote bags and sock - the silhouettes of merchandise. Think monochrome and the psychedelic purple, orange and red found in Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

On Instagram the designer shared images from the launch of the collection. In attendance were celebrities like Jaden Smith, Kate Hudson, Storm Reid, Amber Valetta, Laura Dern and Nia Dennis.
