The British designer Stella McCartney has received the Commander of the Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (CBE) honor from His Majesty King Charles III for Services to Fashion and Sustainability, at the Windsor Castle.

 

For the occasion, the designer daughter former-Beatle, Sir Paul, wore a custom, tailored navy dress handmade in her London atelier.

 

The molded dress is cut from Nativa traceable and regenerative wool complying with the highest levels of animal welfare, environmental protection and care for farmers and local communities.

 

She was also wearing satin navy pumps from her brand’s archive, paired with a cruelty-free clutch from the Stella McCartney Collection. Both are crafted from completely vegan materials, down to the glue.

Stella McCartney's investiture confirms the closeness that has been forged between the new ruler and the designer on the very wave of their shared sensitivity to environmental issues.
