I've never had much time for Stella McCartney on the grounds that I think her fame has come from who she is rather than her talents.
However, I am impressed with this little story. She apparently "went ballistic" after a leading fashion house used a bra designed by her in an advert for a fur coat. The bra was worn underneath a real fur coat and featured in Vogue.
Good for her I say. Her mother was very much against cruelty to animals and it seems that Stella has followed in her footsteps.
The fashion House, Hockley, has grovelled and apologised to Stella, and also said they won't use the ad again. - I should think so too!
