If there really is a living green goddess who is using her powers for good, it's Stella McCartney. The British designer doyenne doesn't test on animals, uses wind energy (from the grid) to power her studio and e-commerce site, and provides carbon neutral shipping to her customers. She's the mastermind behind leather-free Adidas products, her organic skincare line and eco charity tees, and the celebrities who've walked her green carpet adore her: "Stella walks the talk," says Cameron Diaz. So what's new for the eco queen?
The Stella McCartney Eco Collection, an exclusive, 20-piece all-organic capsule collection made from 100% organic cotton and recycled materials. Think loose tunics, slouchy suits, knits and versatile coats in taupe, blush pink, grey and stone. "Growing up on an organic farm helped establish my personal philosophies, ethics and values - eating organic food, adhering to clear vegetarian principles and committing to help protect the environment. We need to think ahead to what is going to happen to our bodies and our planet in 20 years time, and start taking responsibility," Stella has said. "Eco-friendly fashion is something I've always felt strongly about."
Stella's Green Tips:
1. Use organic products. They're good for your health and quality of life - and organic processes respect the environment.
2. Choose a hybrid car. I drive an environmentally friendly Lexus RX 400h.
