Meatless Mouthful–Stella McCartney Does Style And Sustainability
Written by Vegetarian Star on April 11th, 2011 in Environment-Eco-Green, Fashion, Meatless Mouthful.
“First it’s important for me to say I’m not perfect and that for me, it is about the principle. Sustainability is important, recycling is important. I think it is a mind-set: everyone can do really simple things to make a difference, every little bit counts and there is still a long way to go. My first job is to be a fashion designer — my first job is to make desirable, luxurious, beautiful clothing and accessories that women want to buy but I will always take the opportunity to use a beautiful organic fabric. I obviously don’t use any animal skins or furs in my collections which has a huge impact on the planet. About fifty million animals die for the sake of fashion ever year, which is extremely wasteful and significantly contributes to climate change as farming uses a lot of water, energy and land, devastate forests and pollutes oceans.”
–Stella McCartney to Fabsugar on her committment to the earth when creating clothing.
