Just when you thought Stella McCartney couldn't be any cooler, she teams up with our favourite Stranger Things breakout star Sadie Sink and it's like all the fashion stars have finally aligned.
The perfect partnership, Sadie is as passionate an activist as she is an actress. A true animal lover, Sadie shares many of Stella's core values and has been a vegan since childhood when she was convinced to give up consuming animal products by a fellow mutual friend of Stella's, Woody Harrelson.
“I switched to a plant based diet when I was 14 years old”, Sadie told GLAMOUR. “I had a lot of great vegan influences in my life, and was really inspired to try it out myself. I think everyone should consider it. It can be pretty intimidating at first, but just take it day by day. Every little choice counts!”

Shot at The Ranch, a gallery and working horse farm in Montauk, the Stella McCartney winter campaign sees Sadie showcasing several of the brand's new season highlights.
As always, the collection is free from animal leather, feathers and fur, and features a number of innovative conscious fabrics from forest-friendly viscose to organic cotton and regenerative NATIVE wool.
In terms of Stella's new season aesthetic, you can expect lots of strong shoulders on fur-free fur coats, oversized silhouettes within the tailoring and fluid, feminine dresses. Oh, and some pretty major bags… Naturally.

Speaking of the partnership, Stella revealed to GLAMOUR that she's a “huge admirer” of Sadie's work.
“I think that we have so much in common in our love of nature and Earth’s animals, but also a shared sense of empathy and ethics in how we live our lives.”
“I’m so inspired by Sadie’s youth and yet her maturity in her ability as an actor. This is just the start of her career and she has so much more to give! She has an incredible sense of humour and fearlessness.”
But it's not just Sadie's moral compass that Stella feels in-tune with.
“I see so much of myself in Sadie when I was younger. She reminds me visually how I was as a teenager and also of my youngest child, Reiley. Reiley was on set, and we laughed together with Sadie that it was like the three generations of Stella! I’m always drawn to other people with red hair too.”
