Jennifer Lopez in the rain, dolphins on T-shirts: Stella McCartney declares war on seafood in Paris
Paris Fashion Week saw Stella McCartney announce a war on the fishing industry, 25 years into her label which has never used leather, fur or feathers. The British ambassador's gardens served as the rain-soaked runway, with Jennifer Lopez front row under an umbrella. McCartney highlighted the discrepancy between the reverence with which people speak of "sea life" and the indifference with which they order "seafood."
She labeled the fishing industry as "war" and described the devastating impact of nets on marine life. Models walked the runway, dressed in sea-inspired colors and water-inspired tailoring, with elements like drawstrings threading through oversized blazers and sheer layers revealing underwear. McCartney's collection emphasized the importance of wearing the clothes, calling them 100% responsible for using recycled materials and algae-based black pigment.
She also co-founded The Climate Pledge Fashion Coalition, pooling orders from over 60 companies to scale such sustainable materials.
