Renowned fashion designer Stella McCartney has partnered with LeMieux to launch a new equestrian collection, uniting the world of luxury fashion with technical performance wear.
The new collection is vegan and responsibly made, showcasing sustainability in a modern, cruelty-free approach to equestrian wear. Every piece in the collection has been guided by Stella McCartney’s personal connection to horses and her long standing commitment to sustainable design, combined with the technical knowledge of LeMieux.
The fashion designer explained this collection has been created with the same integrity and attention to detail that she brings to every part of her brand.
“Horses have been part of my story since before I was born, and they still bring me joy every single day,” said Ms McCartney. “Working with LeMieux felt completely natural – a way to unite my love of riding with my commitment to conscious, innovative design.”

The collection is designed in two timeless tones – navy and lipstick red. It includes a base layer that was inspired by Stella’s Miracle Dress, shaped with flattering lines that contour the body and elevate technical wear. The pull-on breeches are high-waisted and sculpting, and are packed full of practical and technical features. For horses, there is a a crocheted fly hood and saddle pad made with recycled fabric.
LeMieux CEO Dan Mahoney explained that working with Stella McCartney on this collection represents a new chapter for LeMieux.
“We’ve worked hand in hand to create something that’s deeply authentic to the riding community,” said Mr Mahoney. “It’s a collection that honours horses, nature, and the people who ride with purpose.”
