Riyadh, Saudi Arabia — Stella McCartney closed Riyadh Fashion Week 2025 with a landmark runway show at King Abdullah Financial District (KAFD), marking her first-ever presentation in the Middle East. The British designer brought her vision of conscious luxury to the Kingdom, uniting fashion, innovation, and purpose in a finale that underscored her leadership in sustainable and ethical design.
Presented before an audience of regional changemakers, global media, and the Saudi 100 Brands designers, McCartney’s Spring 2026 collection made its runway debut alongside a curated edit of pieces from the brand’s Winter 2025 collection. The looks incorporated pioneering materials such as YATAY M — a vegan alternative to exotic leathers made from fungi mycelium — world-first Sequinova plant-based sequins, forest-friendly viscose, biodegradable mesh, and regenerated silks.
McCartney’s Middle Eastern debut reflects her long-standing advocacy for women in fashion. The show was attended by many of the region’s leading female designers and entrepreneurs, aligning with the Fashion Commission’s mission to empower women and grow Saudi Arabia’s developing creative economy.
The closing event cemented Riyadh Fashion Week’s position on the global fashion calendar, demonstrating the Kingdom’s emergence as a hub for creativity, sustainability, and cultural exchange.
