Vegetarian Star

Stella McCartney Kids Leo Sweatshirt

Stella McCartney has launched her first kids collection and is allowing child fashionistas with a techy side to enjoy the fashions via an iphone application, available from itunes for free. A percentage of sales from the Leo sweatshirt, shown above, will benefit the McCartney family Meat-Free Monday campaign, aimed to encourage people to eat vegetarian one day a week to reduce the impact of meat consumption on the environment.

The Collection: Keeping in Stella’s green ethics, the clothing line for boys and girls, aged newborn to 12 years, features modern styles crafted from organic cotton and absolutely no fur. According to ChildMode, every piece of clothing has been given a different child’s name, such as the Lara, an organic baseball shirt with stripes and floral prints.

“I wanted this first collection to include basic pieces that are comfortable and that address a child’s needs, without sacrificing the fun and carefree elements,” Stella said.

Actor Alan Cumming (The Good Wife, Spykids, X2: XMen United, Nightcrawler) has a featured interview in the November/December 2010 issue of Vegetarian Times where he discusses his rescue dogs, blasting fur-wearing Broadway and what he wished he would have told the Queen about using synthetic bear fur for the guards’ hats.

“A few years ago, I signed a petition asking the queen to stop using bearskin for those helmets [worn by Buckingham Palace guards] that tourists take pictures of. I didn’t get a chance to say this to the queen, but she should use a nice synthetic fiber for the helmets.”

We hear Stella McCartney is working on that.

Next to Alice is “sexy” Michael Pollan. Besides a bald cap, you’ll need “a book, organic vegetables and some hos [sic].” Ahem. We’re sure the typo was an honest mistake and Pollan’s just a gardening enthusiast.

Lady Gaga and her meat outfit is the most popular choice for Halloween this year, according to the National Retail Federation. Fortunately for fellow Halloween party goers and trick or treaters, most people will shop for synthetic garments instead of the real thing.
