What better way to introduce your Spring 2012 collection than with a good old fashioned garden party?
That's exactly what Stella McCartney did on Monday in New York and it looks like star guests Anne Hathaway, Jim Carrey and Solange Knowles approved.

Models wearing the designer's latest collection mingled with guests while the entertainment had a very county fair feel - a test your strength game (as demonstrated by Solange above), a traditional lemonade stand staffed by children, food served on a little ferris wheel and a croquet set were just some of the things available to partygoers.
Here's a proper look at the pretty presentation dinner:
