Stella McCartney lends face to PETA for anti-leather campaign

Stella McCartney is lending her famous face to PETA to launch an anti-leather campaign. Known for refusing to use fur and leather in her clothing line, the designer has always been passionate about animal advocacy, which is why it’s no surprise that she is now speaking out alongside the organization in a new video.

In the clip, McCartney says, “As a designer, I like to work with fabrics that don’t bleed; that’s why I avoid all animal skins.” We had a difficult time watching the entire video, but we sure think its more effective than blood and paint tossing outside of fashion week.
