Leona Lewis has reportedly been in talks with Stella McCartney on launching an animal friendly fashion range.
The ‘Happy’ singer recently met with designer Stella – who shares similar views to Leona on the use of animal products in fashion – to discuss the possibility of her releasing her own branded products. A friend told Britain’s Daily Mirror newspaper Leona had said:
“I’m on a mission. I’d love to promote a line of non-leather bags and shoes that are affordable. I think more needs to be available and not so expensive.
“There’s so much I want to do. I’ve always wanted to have my own fashion line, and that’s something I want to focus on next year.”
Vegetarian Leona, 24, doesn’t wear suede, leather or other animal products and is public supporter of PETA, while Stella has been a long-time vegetarian – just as her father Sir Paul McCartney and late mother Linda McCartney were.
“Leona and Stella get on like a house on fire. They met at the recent Children In Need charity show at London’s Royal Albert Hall. They are both vegetarians, don’t wear leather and are huge animal lovers. The line would be very animal friendly.”
Do you wear leather? Would you consider checking out Leona and Stella’s collaboration?
Just what we need…another clothing line by someone “famous”. I can hardly wait for her perfume to come out.
omg, seriously! Ridiculous… As if she’s “always wanted her own fashion line.” Stupid. If you really did, you work for it the real way like a real designer.
Amen!
All my bags and almost all of my shoes are made from synthetic fabrics that look a lot like leather. Those were actually a lot cheaper than leather items. H&M and Obey have great, affordable stuff
I would definitely check out a line that’s animal friendly. At this point in time, man no longer needs to look for animal hides and fur to keep warm, so why do designers keep trying to use them?
It’s not fashionable, and it’s downright saddening to see people wearing fur & hide. If you ever watched what happens to animals, you’d never touch or eat them again. (and yes, I’m a vegetarian).
I don’t wear animal skins, either. I would love to see more non-leather bags and shoes out there, I wouldn’t discourage anyone from getting in on it!
yeah exactly. celebrities need to work hard as those fashion designers have.
Totally bored by all the celebrity designers.
