Meatless Mouthful: Stella McCartney On Responsible Fashion
Written by Vegetarian Star on March 25th, 2009 in Fashion, Meatless Mouthful.
“I was brought up that way, so it kind of came very naturally to me. I was brought up on an organic farm in the countryside and the whole family was vegetarian. So it sort of came without thinking. But then when it came to my having a career, starting a job and starting a brand in fashion, I guess it wouldn’t have sat comfortably with me to be hypocritical. I guess that was the starting point. The seeds were already sown in my personal life, and then they came into my business life.”
—-Designer and daughter of Paul McCartney, Stella McCartney, on what led to her starting an ethical fashion line. Stella refuses to use fur or leather and became quite angry when a company once put a fur coat on a model wearing a piece from her lingerie set.
