Madelyn Cline poses for the Stella McCartney SS23 Campaign

British fashion brand Stella McCartney's Summer 2023 Campaign features 'Outer Banks' star and animal lover Madelyn Cline. Photographed by fashion photographer Theo Wenner, the campaign was lensed at a non-profit animal sanctuary located in Santa Clarita, California, The Gentle Barn, which is a completely vegan property with a holistic approach to care, and is a refuge for abused creatures, and it houses over 170 animals including cows, horses, pigs, sheep, chickens, llamas, emus, cats, dogs and birds.

There’s truly nothing like developing a bond with an animal. This collection is special to me for that very reason and when Stella told me we were shooting with animals at The Gentle Barn, I was elated. We spent the day loving on animals, feeding them, and getting to know them. We are all connected and this collection celebrates a harmonious relationship between fashion, animals and our Earth. – Madelyn Clin

What is more punk than upending the entire food and fashion industrial complex by removing animal products from the equation? My mantra right now is: ‘We are what we eat, we are what we wear’. Our choices have an interconnected impacts and if we want to change the history and protect Mother Earth for future generations, we must take action – from stopping eating meat, to ending the needless deaths of animal for fashion. – Stella McCartney
