“I am deeply honored to receive the Legion of Honor, and the fact that it is presented to me by President Emmanuel Macron makes this distinction even more significant,” the designer commented on her social networks. “France is a country that has deeply influenced my life and my career… This city has always welcomed and supported me, but also challenged and inspired me,” added the designer who has been showcasing in Paris since the beginning of her brand in 2001.

While sharing this honor with her loved ones and teams, who “have worked tirelessly and with passion to prove that fashion can be both desirable and responsible,” Stella McCartney points out that “there is still much to be done.” “I remain hopeful – and determined – that together, we can transform our industry to serve nature, all living beings, and future generations.” An interest in the environment and animal welfare that she inherited from her mother Linda McCartney, an American photographer and animal rights activist.
