animal shoes vegetarian
The really great thing about my shoe store is that there's not one dead animal in it.
funny-inspirational shoes soul
Someone from Manolo Blahnik went into my shop and said: 'These shoes are not vegetarian.' That's the highest compliment, because you just can't tell that they are, and they are. My mum taught me to have a soul.
animal shoes use
The really great thing about my shop is that there's not one dead animal in it. ... Manolo's got a load of fabric shoes as well! We use plastic, fabric, rubber- anything but leather. I almost feel like I've been put here to show everyone that it's unnecessary.
buy call crap dug loved shoes sort talk weekend woman
She would have loved some of the things I've done recently. She would have loved all my veggie shoes and she would have dug the Adidas thing. She'd have loved the perfume. It's a bummer. At the weekend I really wanted to call her, talk crap down the phone. I didn't have anything to say, just sort of babble. She was the classiest woman I know. And class? You can't buy class, you know?
looking mum people stadium
I was in this stadium with 200,000 people looking at my mum and dad. That was mind-bending.
brands buy hopeful hopefully people
You have to be hopeful that people will be more educated in how they buy things, and hopefully more luxury brands will start to think that way on a longer-term basis.
lived six
For years, the six of us lived in a two-bedroom house.
clothes felt proud wrong
I've always felt there was something wrong about making high-priced clothes - and I am really proud of the quality.
afford audience collection designs great love people speak stella wider
This one off collection is a 'best of' Stella McCartney. So many people come up to me and say 'I love your designs but could never afford them'. This collaboration is a great way to speak to a wider audience and let them get to know me and my designs better
age age-and-aging bracket buys exactly
The one thing I have going for me is that I'm exactly the age bracket of the person who buys my clothes,
kindness strongest
That's kind of my strongest thing in the tailoring,
gain hope losing positive teaching
The only positive thing you can really gain through losing someone is learning, and teaching other people, ... So I hope to teach other people, and I hope to learn.
kids maybe overly paranoid
I don't know, maybe I'm overly paranoid that they're going to be spoiled, but I want to keep them going as kids for as long as I can. I want to keep them innocent and free.
age
There's no excuse for fur in this day and age.
