On September 29, ZARA marked its 50th anniversary by announcing a special project in collaboration with 50 leading creators from around the world.
The lineup includes industry heavyweights such as Annie Leibovitz, Anna Sui, Kate Moss, and Naomi Campbell, alongside filmmaker Pedro Almodóvar, architect Norman Foster, and designer Marc Newson—an impressive roster that spans multiple disciplines.
50 Talents Across Diverse Fields
The participating creators are leading figures across fashion, photography, architecture, music, and more. The collection spans a wide range of products, from classic fashion staples such as jackets and bags to unexpected pieces like sleeping bags, chairs, and even pet carriers. Each item embodies the unique spirit and aesthetic of its creator, resulting in a collection that powerfully celebrates the brand’s half-century journey.
David Bailey, the iconic photographer who defined the 1960s, designed an aviator jacket; makeup legend Pat McGrath created a makeup bag; Marc Newson produced glass tumblers; and Steven Meisel, who has shaped many of ZARA’s iconic campaigns, designed a sleek pet carrier. Alongside these highlights, numerous other collaboration pieces round out the anniversary collection.
Proceeds to Be Donated in Full
Demonstrating a strong commitment to social contribution, all proceeds from the collection will be donated to Women’s Earth Alliance, a nonprofit dedicated to environmental protection through women’s leadership. ZARA will also match the funds, additionally donating €20,000 each to 50 charities selected by the participating creators.
Marta Ortega Pérez, Chair of Inditex, commented: “We are deeply honored that these artists are celebrating this milestone with us. Their imagination, innovation, and integrity reflect the same passion for craftsmanship and joy in design that ZARA has cherished since its foundation.”
Special Pop-Up During Paris Fashion Week
Coinciding with Paris Fashion Week, ZARA will host a special pop-up event titled ZARA 50th Anniversary Creative Gathering. Curated by Sarah Andelman, the space will feature a specially composed soundtrack by Michel Gaubert and a café operated by We Are Ona, creating a multi-sensory experience for visitors. Running from October 2 to October 5, 2025, the pop-up will be open daily from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. at 40 Avenue Georges V in Paris. On October 2, a highlight of the program will be a talk event moderated by Derek Blasberg, featuring Marc Newson as the guest speaker.
