Celebrating Heritage and Innovation: Las Olas x Stella McCartney

When global fashion powerhouse Stella McCartney wanted to conclude their Black History Month celebrations with intention and authenticity, they turned to Las Olas as their local Black-owned business partner for an exclusive London event.

The Partnership

This collaboration wasn't about checking boxes - it was about shared values. Both Las Olas and Stella McCartney believe that creativity is a force for change, not just a visual aesthetic. We're both committed to substance over surface, building brands with depth rather than just image.
There's also a natural alignment in how we approach culture: Stella McCartney draws on her British heritage while creating internationally renowned designs, while Las Olas celebrates London's creative communities whilst drawing inspiration from across the globe. Both brands share a global outlook rooted in cultural authenticity.

The Celebration

The event served as the perfect conclusion to Stella McCartney's elevated Black History Month efforts, which focused on celebrating Black colleagues, particularly women, and their career progression in fashion. Guest speaker Deborah Ababio, former Global Entertainment Director at Vogue, led an inspiring discussion about heritage and innovation that resonated deeply with everyone present.
We crafted bespoke spiced rum cocktails that complemented both the evening's significance and Stella McCartney's signature aesthetic. Guests mingled and celebrated against a backdrop that perfectly matched the vibrant, layered approach both brands bring to their craft.

When brands choose to work with purpose rather than just convenience, it creates moments that genuinely celebrate creativity, diversity, and craftsmanship.
