Stella McCartney wears her own chiffon and bow number

Stella McCartney wowed in this black chiffon dress from her own label at the New York City Ballet gala last week, where she received a standing ovation for her costume designs featured in dad Sir Paul McCartney's first ballet Ocean Kingdom. Stella's swing shaped dress has a beautiful lace layer cascading from a thick halter-neck over a simple black fabric. This style is huge right now with designers like Valentino andD&G going crazy for lace and retro styles. But its real stand-out feature is the flurry of appliqué bows- a big trend for Winter 2011- dotted over the lace overlay.
