Stella McCartney's new styling series "Double Act" features actress Glenn Close and her daughter Annie Stark

Sep 18, 2017

The latest story from Stella McCartney's styling series, "Double Act," has been released. The project, launched in Fall/Winter 2015, is an original content showcasing Stella McCartney's new wardrobe and styling. The latest story, themed "mother-daughter," released this month features American actress Glenn Close and her daughter, actress Annie Starke. Dressed in the brand's signature tailoring, the pair discuss their relationship, their beloved dogs, film and theater, and the dog-related charities they support. The shoot took place at the Stella McCartney store in downtown New York. Glenn's beloved Havanese dog, Pip, and Annie's beloved Labrador retriever, Mr. Big, also joined the shoot, creating a warm, family-like atmosphere on set. The couple, happily posing with their beloved dogs, looked as if they were at home, relaxing in the moment. Their adorable pups were just as adorable as models.

The shoot focused on highlighting the couple's "silly" side. When asked why, Glenn explained, "We're really close in real life, so we didn't have to play mother-daughter roles." When asked if he thinks fashion empowers women, he replied, "Of course. I feel most powerful and relaxed when I'm wearing classic, comfortable, high-quality fabrics that aren't influenced by trends." Meanwhile, Annie humorously commented about the shoot with her dog, "Mr. Big was excited to be a part of this shoot. He's a huge Stella McCartney fan and supporter, as we only use cruelty-free materials."

The official website features further interviews, as well as fashion photos and a short movie taken on the day.
