Stella McCartney, fashion designer extraordinare daughter of Paul McCartney, is pissed off royal.  Wanna know why?  Well, I’ll tell you….as you all may or may not know, Stella is a strict vegetarian and a HUGE supporter of PETA (People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals).  She even held the Peta Humanitarian Awards ceremony at her designer clothing boutique in Mayfair, London back in 2006.  Anyway, an ad in the latest issue of Vogue magazine shows a bra from Stella’s lingerie collection peeking out from underneath a $13,000 full length mink coat.  To add insult to injury, the coat was cinched at the waist with a big ass black leather belt.  Ouchie.  Needless to say when Stella caught a gander (no pun intended) at this ad, she was a tad miffed.

‘Stella went absolutely ballistic when she saw it,’ a source at Ms McCartney’s store in Mayfair told The Mail on Sunday. ‘I have never seen her so angry. She hit the roof and said that she planned to sue.

It actually sounds like an innocent mistake by the people at Hockley, the fashion house that designs the fur coats.  A source from Stella McCartney said that a sylist that they have worked with in the past asked to borrow some samples from Stella’s collection.

‘A stylist asked to borrow lingerie to use for an editorial fashion shoot in April,’ the source said. ‘The stylist made a mistake and used it in an advertising campaign instead, under a fur coat, without telling Stella McCartney or seeking her approval.

Apologies to Stella have been issued along with the usual sucking up, the ad has been yanked from future publication and hopefully Stella McCartney will sleep soundly tonight knowing that her reputation as a staunch PETA supporter is indeed, intact.

Right on, Stella.  I’m glad she found out and went crazy on Hockleys.  Lesson to be learned - nobody pushes the McCartney clan around and gets away with it!
