In the Fall-Winter 2024/2025 collection, Stella McCartney made a bold environmental statement during Paris Fashion Week, blending luxury with sustainability. The show, set against the backdrop of a greenhouse in Parc André Citroën, was not just a fashion presentation but an urgent call to embrace eco-friendly practices. Celebrated actors Olivia Colman and Helen Mirren contributed to the event by reading a manifesto that highlighted the impacts of environmental degradation, emphasized by the natural setting and sustainable screens displaying the text​ (Stella McCartney)​​ (Kendam)​.
