Offering over 60 options for women, Myntra is the first platform to host the Adidas by Stella McCartney collection in India.

The collection is a perfect blend of distinct style and performance, catering to the needs of women who seek high-quality activewear for their fitness regimes,” said Sharon Pais, chief business officer of Myntra.
The collections include Truenature, Summer Prints, Icons, Badge, and Water Workout capsules, across products categories such as t-shirts, crop tops, leggings, shorts, track pants, sports bras, track tops, clogs, sandals, and running shoes.
“Myntra is a strategic partner for us and we believe, through Myntra, we will be able to not only reach more consumers but also offer the right environment and shopping experience that our consumers deserve. This is the first time Adidas by Stella McCartney is being presented outside our own retail and e-com website,” said Neelendra Singh, General Manager, Adidas India.
