Since the pop icon Taylor Swift befriended an equestrian enthusiast, they created nothing short of magic. As the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Miami Dolphins in yesterday’s finals, the NFL fans celebrated. Having said that, Travis Kelce, the pivotal player of the Chiefs, missed his girlfriend, Taylor Swift, being around. Being away for the iconic 2023 Eras Tour, the pop icon kept her fashion game strong.

In 2022, Swift and her longtime friend Stella McCartney introduced the highly awaited collaboration. Two fashion enthusiasts brainstormed to give birth to “Stella x Taylor” merchandise, which focuses on vegan products. Recently, McCartney unveiled her horse lover self and said, “I was born to the rhythm of horseback.” In the same vein, in support of her friend’s noble endeavors, Swift steps out for dinner.

Stella McCartney had developed a special affection for equines since she was inside her mother’s belly. Now, when the paparazzi spotted Swift in Stella’s famous Vegan Ryder boots, the celebrity connection looked commendable. During a recent night out with her girls Gigi Hadid, Brittany Mahomes, Cara Delevingne, Sophie Turner and Selena Gomez, the 33-year-old looked ravishing.

According to McCartney’s Instagram post, she wrote, “HORSE POWER: The strength and joy of female friendships, embodied by my forever muse @TaylorSwift and her gang… x Stella #TaylorSwift wears our #vegan Ryder equestrian boots and #Frayme bag, both crafted from plant-based alternatives to leather.” Being a horse advocate, the fashion designer started implementing plant-based materials to promote animal protection.

The above-the-knee stiletto boots from the Horse Power collection are from grape waste. Moreover, the black-croc embossed bucket bag in the singer’s hand is a plant-based, more specifically, an apple-based product. Though the finishing is exactly like leather, it’s nothing near to animal-cruelty. Through these small gestures, the celebrities proved that fashion and compassion can co-exist.

A day ago, the luxury fashion designer joined hands with The Chopra Foundation to embark on a new equine-based journey. While her heart still beats to the gait of a horse, her future goals look promising.

On November 4, according to Stella’s X post, she wrote, “HEALING POWER OF HORSES: Horses have always supported my #mentalhealth and wellbeing. When I met @DeepakChopra and learned about #NeverAlone, I knew we had to collaborate on #HealingPowerofHorses.” After her fall collection featuring Kendall Jenner surfaced, an email from Never Alone co-founder Deepak Chopra took her by surprise.

When she faced mental health struggles, she took up equine therapy, without even being cognizant of the term. But talking to Chopra over tea, the duo discussed the benefits of animal therapy. The co-founder of Never Alone, Gabriella Wright, said, “We have to meet people where they are in this mental health crisis. It’s a universal problem, but a solo experience. But through this love story with horses, we’re hoping to reach more people.”

Besides providing emotional assistance, the collaboration will also provide financial help to people suffering from traumas and mental distress. Also, to give a special mention, McCartney’s horse, Flo, has helped her through difficult times. Her healing process just got better in Flo’s presence.
