Stella gets her Waist back - high waisted jeans spotted for FW2006

“Stella McCartney has had a lot on her plate this past year. New baby, a smash-hit gig for H&M, and a line of attention-grabbing activewear for Adidas. Well done for all that—but has she had enough in reserve to concentrate on her own brand? Her collection didn’t really look like it. What she showed—big cocoon cardigans with sloppy collars, skimpy printed jersey dresses, mixed with A-line smocks and swing coats—lacked the stylistic grip and polish expected from a player in the premier league of Parisian fashion.”

What really stood out for us, however, were the high waisted jeans. I know some of you were longing for the end of the low-waist trend (thanks, Tom Ford!) - but for me this is really, REALLY not flattering. You make the call.
