Women in Fashion (w/ Stella McCartney)

This week, Chelsea is sitting down with world-renowned designer and activist Stella McCartney to look at women in the fashion industry – the progress we’ve made toward equality and what needs to happen next.

For more than twenty years, Stella McCartney has been running her own label and designing using environmentally-friendly practices and sustainable fabrics. From the very beginning, Stella has not used leather or any animal skin, feathers, or fur in her designs and she’s looked to reduce waste. Now, she is pushing the entire industry toward a higher standard of sustainable practice. And this month, Stella is debuting an outfit for the one and only Minnie Mouse. After almost a century wearing a dress, Minnie will be donning an original, deep blue Stella McCartney pantsuit – marking International Women’s Day and the 30th Anniversary of Disneyland Paris.
