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.

More quotes by Stella McCartney
People think I'm strong, but actually I wanted to crawl away. I thought, I'm going to live in the country with my horse and I'll get a nine-to-five I don't need this.
Stella McCartney
I don't use specific brands really. It's just that for my skin, I need as high an SPF factor as I can get my hands on. That's the only rule.
Stella McCartney
I was first drawn to active wear because I enjoy working out, and it's very important in this day in age. I really felt women were getting the tail end of the design in active wear not getting the technology or design we deserved. It was reserved for men. We were getting the leftover work from the sports design houses.
Stella McCartney
We always had our own vegetables growing up and now I'm doing it with my kids at our house in the country.
Stella McCartney
I love that you can have the language between the two worlds of technology and fashion, because I don't think that many designers get to do that.
Stella McCartney
At the end of the day I separate things my life is my life and my work is my work.
Stella McCartney
When you think of fashion photography, it's a dream. It's like we all want to be those women. We want to wear those dresses.
Stella McCartney
The consumption of animals - whether you're wearing them or eating them - is extraordinarily damaging to the planet. There are over a billion animals killed a year for food, half of which don't even get eaten. And there's over 50 million animals killed just for fashion.
Stella McCartney
You feel like everyone hates you if you've got a good life, now I feel maybe it's allowed because I've had my share of sadness.
Stella McCartney
My biggest surprises in my everyday job have to do with the challenges of trying to be slightly more responsible as a brand.
Stella McCartney
Now, get out there and kick ass!
Stella McCartney
It's not about what it looks like in the studio or on the runway. It's what it looks like on a real person that matters.
Stella McCartney
I can honestly say this industry hasn't made me neurotic about my looks, except maybe my weight. I hope my clothes kind of reflect that. They're meant to make you feel good.
Stella McCartney
Sometimes I wish I were less sensible.
Stella McCartney
I'd rather people turn up than not. And of course I'd rather have people be enthusiastic.
Stella McCartney
Being effortless is the coolest thing in the world
Stella McCartney
I'm not offended or embarrassed by the fact that I design clothes for women to wear. So when I meet women who love my clothes, it's a really good, straightforward thing. It makes me feel like I'm doing my job right.
Stella McCartney
The main thing I need to do is create, hopefully, exquisitely beautiful, desirable objects for my customer.
Stella McCartney
I run a lot. If I don't have time to go to the gym or don't have time to work out properly, I will go for a quick run. I think running is a great way to stay fit, and I really concentrate on fitting into a realistic urban lifestyle.
Stella McCartney
It's immoral that people make money out of writing crap, but I try not to obsess about it. I don't want to spend my life being angry.
