Stella McCartney's new adidas collection champions eco-friendly materials


We all know that Stella McCartney is committed to creating fashion that is as sustainable as possible. Not only has she never used fur or leather in her collections, she also invests in new technologies and works alongside conservation charities to protect the environment. In fact, there’s even an entire ‘Sustainability World’ section on her official website – a page dedicated to explaining all the ways her label is committed to sustainability, and providing information on initiatives she supports.

This combination of ethics and innovation is written across her AW18 collaborative collection with adidas. Aesthetically, McCartney chose to experiment with flashes of animal print, arresting streaks of colour and structured silhouettes, creating a new twist on sportswear staples.
